| Ancient Beehive Complex Discovered in Israel — Dates to the Reign of Solomon Since the period of fierce criticism of the historicity of the Bible a little over 100 years ago, archaeology has confirmed again and again its historical truth. Recently came confirmation that an ancient seal from Samaria belonged to Jezebel, one of the most notoriously wicked queens of Israel. Recent archaeological excavations have also uncovered evidence of bee-keeping of a sophisticated sort and on a massive scale in ancient Israel. The Bible refers to Israel as a land “of milk and honey” many times. Jehu was a military commander who killed the royalty of Israel in his day and established a brief dynasty of his own. It seems quite possible the beehive complex discovered belonged to his family. ———————————————————————————————————- See Jeffry Caldwell’s other articles at: Caldwell, Jeffrey – Church of God, Bismarck (church-of-god-bismarck.org) ———————————————————————————————————- |
