Here's yet another archaeological discovery that confirms what the Bible says.

For the Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street with a point.

Well, doves play a serious role in Scripture.

A dove confirmed to know it, the waters were receding, the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus

that is baptism in the form of a dove, and now doves are confirming the Bible's historical reliability.

According to a new study, analysis of bird remains excavated in Jerusalem confirmed.

The species of birds, pigeons, doves that were indeed sacrificed in the temple, as the Bible suggest.

Now many of the Bible's historical claims are questioned by skeptical scholars.

Some doubted that the Israelites sacrificed doves in accordance to Mosaic law,

because they're not domesticated like other sacrificial offerings.

Maybe they offered chickens, not doves.

Well, the vast number of dove bones discovered near the temple mount suggests, yet again,

the Bible's a reliable source of history.

We should expect no less since the Bible claims that God acted in and is still acting in,

not just human hearts, but human history.
