JERUSALEM – On April 18, Haaretz ran a piece entitled “How Mice May Have Saved Jerusalem 2,700 years Ago From the Terrifying Assyrians,” which looked into the historicity of the Biblical account of King Hezekiah. As noted in the article, the fact that the Assyrian army turned around and let Hezekiah go indicates something highly out of the ordinary took place. On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal, looks at the possible scenarios that sent the Assyrians packing.

On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal analyses the joint response and whether or not it will be effective at stopping Assad from using chemical weapons again. He also discusses why France’s entrance into the Syrian fray could mark watershed event in the civil war.

But did you know that four out of the five of those were discovered in the excavations of Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s Dr. Eilat Mazar? Some would say she is just lucky, but is there another reason why she is so fortunate? On the second half of today’s program, Host Brent Nagtegaal searches for an answer to that question. In the first half of the show, he discusses the recent Jerusalem premier of the documentary “The Fight of Our Lives.”

While there are different interpretations of the seal, the context in which it was found provides the greatest proof that it was none other than the famed prophet and friend of Biblical king Hezekiah. On today’s program, archaeologist Brent Nagtegaal gives a first-hand account of the context of the seal impression from his time excavating the area in 2009 – when the bulla was unsuspectingly unearthed.

On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal analyses Netanyahu’s speech in light of a possible twist in the direction of the Syrian Civil War and the possibilities of a new Iran/Israel conflict.

According to Haaretz, archaeologists in Jerusalem have started to “Drop Bible, Pick Up Science to Solve Jerusalem Puzzles.” In his January 18 piece, Ariel David describes the four-year project that is underway to accurately radio-carbon date Jerusalem’s layers. What’s inferred from the piece is that the use of the Bible in archaeology was inherently unscientific and only when carbon samples are used can we be sure actual science is taking place. On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal compares Haaretz’s treatment of the discovery of King David’s Palace to the actual facts on the ground, including, none other that carbon 14 dating.
