In this exciting 4th segment with Dr. Scott Stripling and Dr. Peter van der Veen, Scott and Peter reveal the full translation of the inscription on the inside of the Mount Ebal curse tablet (what has been/can be deciphered thus far).
Dr. Stripling and Dr. van der Veen also share additional archaeological evidence and context from the altar site that helps to further date this inscription to around the time of Joshua.
Dr. Stripling then points to the theological significance behind this Proto-Hebrew curse and its connection to a theme that runs throughout the pages of Scripture - the blood of the innocent to cover the guilty.
