In this episode, Dr. Joseph Holden and Dr. Patrick Zukeran examine archaeological discoveries tied to Herod the Great, Pontius Pilate, and Caiaphas. From royal palaces and fortresses to inscriptions and burial remains, they show how archaeology confirms these figures as real historical actors in the Gospel story.

Is the Bible history – or just religious myth? In this series on archaeology, Dr. Patrick Zukeran explains how Biblical archaeology provides concrete evidence for the people, places, and events of Scripture, and why Christianity stands apart as a historically grounded faith. He also shares how archaeology played a pivotal role in strengthening his own confidence in the truth of the Bible.
