In this reaction episode, Garry Stevens of the History in the Bible Podcast and Steve take a deep dive into Biblical Archaeology Review's 50th anniversary article. What does half a century of digging in the Holy Land really tell us? I break down the claims, question the hype, and offer some context that may be missing from the glossy retrospective. From Solomon’s Temple to sensational headlines, let’s talk about what archaeology can and can’t prove. Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or just a fan of old stones and strong opinions, this one’s for you. https://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/#HistoryOfThePapacy #BiblicalArchaeology #BAR50 #SolomonsTemple #TempleTalk #ArchaeologyPodcast #ChurchHistory #BibleHistory #AncientJerusalem #OldTestament #HistoricalCriticism #BARReaction #OrthodoxChristianity #NoHotTakesJustHistorySupport the show:Buy me a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthepapacyPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a book! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1MUPNYEU65NTFHave questions, comments or feedback?
