Biblical archaeological discovery I
When Jesus entered the holy city of Jerusalem on a donkey, some jealous people tried to suppress the spontaneous cheers of the crowd. They said to Jesus:? Blame your apprentice! ? But Jesus said, I tell you, if they keep silent, these stones will cry. ? Luke 19:40. Now the stone speaks.
According to the Bible, King Belshazzar of Babylon held a grand banquet for his 1000 ministers. At this time, someone's finger suddenly appeared and wrote on the wall. When the king saw the writing finger, his face changed greatly and his heart was depressed. He called the prophet Daniel to explain these words. What does it say? Minnie, Minnie, Tickler, black hair and two hearts? . Daniel explained:? Minnie? God has counted the days of your kingdom, and this is the end. ? Scratch? You are weighed on the scale, showing your debt. Hemorrhoids (synonymous with black hair)? Is your country divided and belongs to the Medes and Persians? .
But critics have always denied the accuracy of this history: (1) Who is Belshazzar? There is no such person's name in the Book of Kings of Babylon; (2) He is called the last king of Babylon, which is inconsistent with the historical facts of Pakistan. According to Pakistani history books, the last king took Bonidu, so the facts in Daniel's book are inconsistent with the facts, full of mistakes and unreliable.
Archaeologists now give exact historical data to testify. Napoleon's eldest son was named Belshazzar. During his reign, he did not live in Babylon for several years and entrusted the kingship to Belshazzar.
Biblical archaeological discoveries II
The following information is taken from the book Archaeological Findings in the Bible.
This prophecy has come true. According to the records of ancient historians, King Ju Lushi of Persia changed the flow direction of the Euphrates River and led his men into Babylon along the riverbed, thus gaining this invincible city. Page 133
1854, a British consul, on behalf of the British Museum, explored some ancient ruins in northern Iraq and unearthed a huge pagoda made of mud bricks. This pagoda is part of the Moon Temple, overlooking the whole city. He found several small clay cylinders in the mud brick. Each engraved with about six Babylonian characters.
The consul took these cylinders to Baghdad. Fortunately, his boss at that time was Sir Henry Rawlinson, who once translated Babylonian cuneiform. So I can read these inscriptions. Rawlinson immediately saw the importance of these clay columns.
These inscriptions were written at the order of King Napoleon of Babylon (555- 539 BC). The king once repaired the tower of the temple, and these clay columns recorded this fact. The words above prove that this ruin is the tower of the Temple of Ur. The words on it are to pray for the health and longevity of Naponido and his eldest son, and it is clearly written that his son's name is Belshazzar.
