I Wonder If The Jehovah's Witnesses Ever Rang the Door Bell?
The Daily Mail reports:
Hewn into a hillside, this is the humble stone and mortar house where a scholar believes Jesus was raised.
It has been dated to the early 1st century
by a British archaeologist who says an ancient text points to the
building as being the home in Nazareth where Mary and Joseph brought up
the son of God.
Professor Ken Dark says De Locis Sanctis,
written in 670 by Irish monk Adomnan, described the house as located
between two tombs and below a church.
The text was based on a pilgrimage to
Nazareth made by the Frankish bishop Arculf and tells of a church ‘where
once there was the house in which the Lord was nourished in his
infancy’.
I bet they didn't have any of these hanging around the house.
