(Worthy News) – An Israeli prison in Megiddo will be transformed into an archaeological park showcasing the major Roman-era archaeological remains that have been discovered underneath it including the remains of an ancient Jewish village and a stunning mosaic that identifies Jesus as God.
The prisoners will soon be transferred, the prison converted and the discoveries open to the public. Located in northern Israel, the Megiddo jail houses both Israeli and Palestinian prisoners. The British built the prison over the ancient site in the 1940s. The archaeological discoveries were made between 2003 and 2008 after digging began to expand the prison.
The inmates themselves were to put to work digging – and it was one of them who, in 2005, stumbled on the mosaic inscription proclaiming Jesus’ deity. Translated from the Greek by the Israeli Antiquities Authority, the inscription reads: “The god-loving Akeptous has offered the table to God Jesus Christ as a memorial.” [ Source: Kehila News (Read More…) ]
