2002-OCT-21: Palestine: Christianity Today and Bible Archaeological Review reports on ossuary find: Christianity Today reported in its OCT-21 edition and the Bible Archaeological Review (BAR) reported in its NOV-DEC edition that an ossuary (bone box) dating from the 1st century CE has been found with the Aramaic inscription "James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus." James, Joseph, and Jesus (actually Yeshua) were common names at the time. However, the possibility exists that the inscription refers to the biblical family of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and their two sons Jesus and James. 10,11,12 More details |
