Found a place to test Jesus

That is the affirmation of archaeologists, who find parts hidden in the castle of King Herod in Jerusalem , where the Bible has witnessed a turning point in the life of Jesus.

15 years ago, the project to expand the tower of the David Museum was launched. First, archaeologists stripped each of the structures beneath the floor of an abandoned ancient building close to the museum at the ancient city of Jerusalem. At that time, experts knew this place was once a prison during the Ottoman Empire and British colonies. However, during digging, they could not believe their eyes when witnessing a miracle of history unfold before their eyes: this ruin could be the place where the trial of Jesus was recorded in New Testament , according to The Washington Post.

Now, after several years of postponement due to war and lack of financial resources, the precious discovery of archeology has been announced, welcoming pilgrims and tourists around the world. Prison 'plays an important role in the mysterious riddle from ancient Jerusalem and shows the city's unique history clearly' , according to local archaeologist Amit Re'em .

Mr. Re'em said the ancient structure is home to many thrilling discoveries over the centuries, from symbols carved into dungeon walls during the war that marked the birth of Israel in the 1940s, stained cloths from crusades, to the sewer system from the time of the great King Herod. However, for more than 1 million Christians who go to Jerusalem every year, this place is especially significant because it can be an important place in the life of Jesus.

The controversy over the place of trial has long been held in Christian spiritual leaders, historians and archaeologists. Questions about the exact location of this place vary depending on the different interpretations of the gospels, which describe the process of Jesus being taken to the governor of Pontius Pilate in the so-called "central tent." mind ' and was condemned to death. Some people believe that the Pilgrimage Center's central tent could be in the Roman camp, while those who thought he was a guest in Herod's castle. Today, archaeologists and archaeologists identify the palace of King Herod in the west of the city, which houses the tower of the David Museum and the Ottoman prison.

For Shimon Gibson, professor of archeology at the University of North Carolina (USA), it is hard to argue that the location of the trial actually took place inside Herod's palace. In the gospel of John, this place is described near a rugged stone gate and road, perfectly suited to the discovery of the Re'em group.'Of course, there are no words that clearly indicate this place witnessed the trial of Jesus, but everything, from archeological, historical and gospel aspects, all coincides , ' said Professor Gibson. .

If everything is correct, the riddle has long been answered, promising to become a new pilgrimage site for Christians.
