Israeli-Canadian journalist has managed to track down two iron nails used to crucify Jesus Christ. Or at least, it is a "long-lost relic."
As reported by Reuters, along with his team, he was preparing a show Secrets of Christianity for the History Channel television station. Host and producer Simcha Jacobovici found a startling fact: In 1990, Israeli archaeologists excavated a 2,000-year-old burial cave and found two spikes made by the Romans, but hide the findings.
Based on the negotiations, eventually HC may publish the discovery of two ossuaries - stone burial box containing the human bones. In the box was written the inscription "Caiaphas" and "con of Joseph Caiaphas". Last crate is now displayed at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
According to the Gospel, or Caiaphas Caiaphas was high priest who handed Jesus over to the Jews of Rome to be crucified. "There is general scientific consensus that the tomb where the nails were found most likely owned by Caiaphas at the time. No matter how small, but found in the tomb is very rare," Jacobovici said outside the high stone wall in the Old City, where Jesus spent last day.
When Jacobovici found a brief reference about the official archaeologist of nails in the report, he admitted, "My jaw seemed to drop," he likens.
"It would be like, 2,000 years from now, archaeologists discovered a cave of Muhammad Ali, but forgot to mention a pair of boxing gloves that are found there. There is nothing special about a boxing glove, but if it's a special glove that has significance specific to the famous boxer, will be different meaning not? " he said.
Jacobovici had been a program host at the station archaeologist Naked History International and in collaboration with filmmaker James Cameron in 2007 to make the controversial documentary, "The Lost Tomb of Jesus."
He had previously asked the Israel Antiquities Authority about the nail. "I was told they had lost."
Caiaphas, he said, is known for one: the trial and crucifixion of Jesus. "He may feel compelled to take it with her nails into his grave," says Jacobovici.
There is also a belief among some ancient Jews that the nails of the cross of Jesus to have healing powers and the "ticket to heaven".
But Gabriel Barkay, a professor of archeology at Bar-Ilan University, doubts the findings. "There is no evidence whatsoever that they are from the tomb of Caiaphas," he said. "It's all conjecture."
Spikes used for "various purposes," said Barkay, "of improving the iron gates and wooden doors for a coffin, in addition to the crucifixion."
Ronny Reich of Haifa University archaeologist who also has examined the Cave of Caiaphas, the cave believe it "belongs to a family member of Caiaphas". But he was not sure of the authenticity of the nail as wooden crucifixion of Jesus.
