An Interview With Archaeologist Ya'akov Billig About the 2700-Year-Old 'Holy' Toilet He Unearthed in Jerusalem
Show Notes

A surprisingly hilarious discussion about the recent discovery of a mansion that overlooked the Temple Mount in Jerusalem 2700 years ago;  with owners so rich, they were able to afford their own toilet. What Ya’akov really discovered is another fragment of the magnificent city Jerusalem once was… as far back as the 9th century BCE. The beautiful Proto-Aeolic capitals he found pre-date any similar capitals found in Greece. And through the ancient window frame Ya'akov discovered, we can reimagine the grand view the royal inhabitants of the mansion enjoyed.  Archaeology continues to uncover a 1st Temple Period Jerusalem as glorious as the Bible describes.
