Where do you find any of this in the Word? (and if not in the Word, how could it be believable?)
As I wrote: I was on a group trip to the Holy Land (2011) with former Baptist minister Steve Ray and his wife Janet.
Our Israeli tour guide, a Catholic Arab Palestinian and Israeli citizen, took our group to the home of Caiaphas. It was part of the tour, a joint effort of the Israeli government and tourism. The ISRAELIS had it marked as such.
So, the Israelis think it's Caiaphas' home-cave; the Catholic Church thinks it's Caiaphas' home-cave; the tour books/guides say it was Caiaphas' home-cave and the entire Christian community over there treats it as if it were Caiaphas' cave. So, I assumed that the Israelis, Church, Palestinians and all were correct and that it was indeed the home-cave of Caiaphas.
However, if YOU know better and believe they are ALL incorrect, be my guest.
No, it was not in the Bible. These were archeological sites.
Well I put way more in Josephus’ description of the devastation of Jerusalem than any commercial tourist trap babble.
We know from recorded history that Constantine’s mother had a number of false relics erected in Jerusalem, many of them being worshiped as “stations of the cross” and other such deception.
