Isaiah 28: 9-10

Biblical Archaeology

DURING his excavations at Babylon (1879-1882) Hormuzd Rassam, a Chaldean Christian from Mosul who had assisted Layard at the excavation of Nineveh, uncovered a baked clay barrel about nine inches long. This turned out to be the famous inscription known as the Cyrus Cylinder, which tells the king's own story of his conquest of Babylon. The cuneiform text impressed on the clay cylinder tells of Marduk seeking a righteous man, then pronouncing Cyrus as the one destined to rule the world; it records how Babylon was taken without a battle; how Cyrus was welcomed by the people; and then by royal edict the captives were released and permitted to return to their own lands and restore their sanctuaries.
The Cyrus Cylinder is a clay cylinder inscribed in Akkadian cuneiform script with an account made by the famous king Cyrus of Persia (559-530 BC). ] It records how Babylon was taken without a battle; how Cyrus was welcomed by the people; and then by royal edict the captives were released and permitted to return to their own lands and restore their sanctuaries. Much of what we read on the cylinder can be correlated with the Bible, particularly with Isaiah 44:24-28; 45:1 -6,13. And what makes this remarkable parallel so incredible is that the words of Isaiah were written more than one hundred years before Cyrus was born.

“Randall Niles was the definitive skeptic, critic, and cynic. Forged in the fires of Georgetown, Oxford, and Berkeley, Randall’s peers knew him as a “practicing atheist.” Then, in what seemed to be overnight, people witnessed a dramatic shift in his life. Go on a journey with Randall as he poses questions, explores assumptions, and challenges his long-held preconceptions about life, purpose, and meaning.”

The Dead Sea Scrolls

http://www.allaboutarchaeology.org/dead-sea-scrolls.htm

The Dead Sea Scrolls have been called the greatest manuscript discovery of modern times. They were discovered between 1947 and 1956 in eleven caves along the northwest shore of the Dead Sea. The Dead Sea Scrolls are comprised of the remains of approximately 825 to 870 separate scrolls, represented by tens of thousands of fragments.  Fragments of every book of the Old Testament (Hebrew canon) have been discovered, except for the book of Esther. Now identified among the scrolls are 19 fragments of Isaiah, 25 fragments of Deuteronomy and 30 fragments of the Psalms. The virtually intact Isaiah Scroll, which contains some of the most dramatic Messianic prophecy, is 1,000 years older than any previously known copy of Isaiah.
