Title:In find of biblical proportions, seal of Prophet Isaiah said found in Jerusalem

By AMANDA BORSCHEL-DAN 22 February 2018, 7:00 am

The hand of the Prophet Isaiah himself may have created an 8th century BCE seal impression discovered in First Temple remains near Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, according to Hebrew University archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar.

“We appear to have discovered a seal impression, which may have belonged to the prophet Isaiah, in a scientific, archaeological excavation,” said Mazar this week in a press release announcing the breathtaking discovery.

Mazar’s team uncovered the minuscule bulla, or seal impression, during renewed excavations at the Ophel, located at the foot of the southern wall of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The discovery was published on Wednesday in an article, “Is This the Prophet Isaiah’s Signature?” as part of a massive March-June issue of the Biblical Archaeology Review dedicated to its recently retired founding editor, Hershel Shanks.

The clay impression is inscribed with letters and what appears to be a grazing doe, “a motif of blessing and protection found in Judah, particularly in Jerusalem,” according to the BAR article.

Of course like all discoveries this will be peer reviewed. However, this finding links Isaiah with the same Hezekiah of 2 Kings 18, Isaiah 36 and Isaiah 37.Subscribe to *Archeology and Digs*

Why are you stuck on this inconsequential claim of yours?

Are you trying to discredit certain claims or events?

Yup.

Judaism rose after 1000 BCE and not before. Facts based on objective evidence clearly shows that the religious practice of the Hebrews was borrowed from other cultures.

I have yet to show the Egyptian connection in approximate time frames either.

What's the objective evidence?

The absence of any objective evidence for the collectivist nation called "Hebrews" prior to 1000BCE. I have said this before, that I give great latitude about the time frame and as an opinion, the Hebrews were not existent prior to their capabilities to actually write, irrespective of medium prior to the Babylonians giving them a sense of culture beyond goat herding. Even then the Babylonians kicked them out as ignorant students.

Yet Moses was raised as a prince of Egypt.

This is the very simple alphabet the early Hebrews dealt with and would be known prior to their bondage in Egypt as they sojourned in Canaanite lands.

Which is a Phoenician variant: Paleo Hebrew Alphabet

Where are there records in Egyptian history?

Destroyed during the 10 plagues.

Is there extra-biblical evidence of the ten plagues in Egypt?

If you are not convinced of this then maybe Hollywood has your answer:

As opposed to suggesting reasons for no records, the answer is "NO." Just so you know, many of the Biblical accounts of and about Egyptian faebles are not documented anywhere but within the Bible. You would think there would be collaborating evidence by a great culture but you have alluded to the reasons adding more faebles.

Collaborating evidence? Why would a shamed empire mention being destroyed by a bunch of slaves by their God?

If you apply the same stringent standard to all of antiquity that means none of the history from the ancients is reliable. You nuke history.

Ancient history is written by empires. They subdued other cultures. Was there a neutral history of Alexander? No. The history of Alexander is written by Greeks. However, due to the location of ancient Israel, we have the history of every major empire that conquered them. And the Hebrew history from the OT tells the story of the Hebrew people from the good, the bad and the ugly. It is a unique history as empires like Persia and Greece wrote only the glowing and glorious.

As 1st AD historian Josephus noted in his Antiquities:

For we have not an innumerable multitude of books among us, disagreeing from and contradicting one another, [as the Greeks have,] but only twenty-two books, which contain the records of all the past times; which are justly believed to be divine; and of them five belong to Moses, which contain his laws and the traditions of the origin of mankind till his death. This interval of time was little short of three thousand years; but as to the time from the death of Moses till the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, who reigned after Xerxes, the prophets, who were after Moses, wrote down what was done in their times in thirteen books.

The remaining four books contain hymns to God, and precepts for the conduct of human life. It is true, our history hath been written since Artaxerxes very particularly, but hath not been esteemed of the like authority with the former by our forefathers, because there hath not been an exact succession of prophets since that time; and how firmly we have given credit to these books of our own nation is evident by what we do; for during so many ages as have already passed, no one has been so bold as either to add any thing to them, to take any thing from them, or to make any change in them; but it is become natural to all Jews immediately, and from their very birth, to esteem these books to contain Divine doctrines, and to persist in them, and, if occasion be willingly to die for them.

Flavius Josephus, Against Apion
