New result on Jesus family ossuaries

[watchamadoodle]

Here is a quote from an article on the controversial Jesus family ossuaries. The ossuary with the inscription "James the son of Joseph and brother of Jesus" was apparently from the Talpiot tomb that contained the ossuaries for other family members.

I'm not familiar with all the details of the debate on these ossuaries, but it is interesting. If the inscription is authentic, it is interesting that it mentions a brother named Jesus. That probably indicates this Jesus was famous.

He found that the Talpiot tomb had a unique chemical signature and that the random samples did not match that signature, but that the James Ossuary did. He also found that the soil that had seeped inside it, perfectly matched the soil that seeped inside the Talpiot ossuaries, including the “Jesus Family tomb,” thus illustrating that the James Ossuary spent most of its existence in the East Talpiot location.
