In the Galilee seaside village of Kibbutz Ginosar, an historic archaeological discovery was made on January 24th, 1986. The discovery rocked the worlds of faith, history and archaeology.
Following a prolonged drought that lowered the Galilees sea level, two fisherman brothers, Yuval and Moishale Lofan, discovered an ancient boat. At the same time a brilliant double rainbow crowned the skies over the Galilee. Extremely rare, many thought these rainbows and other siimultaneous unexplainable events were signs from God, hailing the discovery of this ancient boat.
Dr. Raveh, who has 35 years of professional experience in maritime archaeology and museology, and was the lead expert on the Jesus Boat rescue and restoration spoke with Pastor Robert Furrow on the importance of this discovery and discussed "The Jesus Boat" documentary. This is a short clip from that interview which took place at Calvary Chapel Tucson, July 8, 2009.
This guy does not get as much credit as he does for his work in maritime archaeology! It's too bad he has to talk about the "Jesus Boat" and not about the ships he found just off the coast of Tantura which date to the Iron Age!
