Yes, in fact it was recently discovered that an early monk left out the "R" in the word "celebrate" in a text describing the qualifications of priests, much to the chargrin of thousands of priests.

Childish. Yeshua is a very common name of the biblical Jews. "Yeshua lies here" means nothing.

Interesting! I would place the two ossuaries as the top two NT finds. The author thinks the James ossuary refers to a biological brother of Jesus. I think it's more likely that this James was a disciple of Jesus.

Thank you for the post, it is curious.

However, why it would help anyones faith is beyond me as:

Heb 11:1* Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

...your premise seems to contradict the scriptural definition of faith.

2nd, once again, what does a relict have to do with faith? Especially when the scripture clearly testifies that the shroud is a farce:

6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
7* And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

I thank you because it was interesting, but:

Ro 1:17* For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Ga 3:11* But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

Heb 10:38* Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Be well.

The claimed ossuary of S. James has been exposed as a haox. The owner's house was raided by police who discovered a number of part-made 'ancient artifacts'.

If we could go back 200 years I would include the ROSETTA STONE.
The Moabite stone and several other inscription stones of importance.
