The Significance of Sacrifices
Who cares about sacrifices in the Old Testament? We as Christians live by the New Testament! But have you ever tried to read through Leviticus? Would it be easier if you could envision patterns instead of repetition? Would you relate with it if you envisioned the quandary of a conscientious Jew in light of the Pharisees’ hypocrisy, the ceremonial laws as the Old Testament requires, and Jesus’ teachings? Would you appreciate it better if you understood how Jesus perfectly fulfilled ALL the law on our behalf? Or even if you envisioned better what it was like to have to sacrifice animals?
The Significance for our Lives
We all could benefit more from the discipline of thankfulness, but how can we be thankful for things we never experienced or even considered? And how can we consider if we can’t comprehend? Wouldn’t this alone make the exercise of exploring the sacrifices worth the effort? This database, Lord willing, will address this need in years to come.
This is a heel bone that was discovered with a bent nail in it which made the nail very difficult to remove. It belonged to Yehohanan ben Hagkol, which was marked in Hebrew on the ossuary, and he was crucified somewhere between 4 B.C. and 70 A.D.
New data for sacrifices from the research database is coming soon!

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted. I read this book recently & enjoyed it as much as Joachim Jeremias, which says a lot :)

I like AI (Artificial Intelligence) improving my pictures in my blogs, although I hope in the future it can improve them more. AI is recent technology & usually the 1st versions of anything improves with time. I never liked pictures of Jesus for a few reasons (i.e. accuracy is only 1 reason), but would like them better if his face was mostly hidden by the angle &/or his clothing. Yet I felt I needed pictures to display what my blogs were about. So I look forward to improving this in time.
So it turned out to be too much this year for my student to get my recent research database available online, we went back to the demo from up-to 2016 research again. Perhaps if I get 1-2 real good student next year it may be within reach now, but I'm content with researching off-line & with hopes my programmer/friend will find time to do it eventually.
