"Archaeology Discovered the Gabbatha and Bema Near the Palace of Pontius Pilate"
Where did Pontius Pilate judge Jesus?
Archaeological discoveries help us better understand the places described in the Gospels. The locations traditionally associated with Gabbatha and the Bema can be studied in relation to Herod’s Palace in Jerusalem (and Essene Gate), where Pontius Pilate may have stayed during major Jewish festivals.
In my book, "The Archaeology of the Gospels", I compare Gospel accounts (John 19:13 and Mk 15:16) with archaeology, ancient history, maps, and surviving remains of Jerusalem.

“Today This Scripture Is Fulfilled” — Jesus in the Synagogue
In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus reads from the scroll of Isaiah in the synagogue. Then He rolls up the scroll, gives it back, sits down, and says:
“Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
— Luke 4:21
Below the video are two archaeological reminders of synagogue life in the time of Jesus:
* the Stone Table from the synagogue in Magdala, connected with the handling or placing of scrolls, and
* the Chair of Moses from the synagogue in Chorazin, showing the kind of seat from which teaching could be given.
The synagogue in Nazareth—according to Christian tradition—survives to this day as the Synagogue Church in Nazareth, belonging to the Greek Catholic Church. Its floor lies approximately 1.5 metres below the present street level.

THE BAY OF PARABLES
On the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee lies a remarkable place known as the Bay of Parables.
Located about one-third of the way from Tabgha to Capernaum, near the Mount of Beatitudes, this small bay forms a natural amphitheatre. Its curved shoreline and rising banks can carry a voice from a boat toward a large crowd gathered on land.
📍 Coordinates: 32°52′26″N, 35°33′39″E
This landscape closely matches the scene described in Mark 4:1–9, when Jesus taught beside the Sea of Galilee:
A very large crowd gathered around Him, so He entered a boat and sat on the water, while the people listened from the shore.
Here, surrounded by the hills of Galilee, the words of the Parable of the Sower may once have echoed across the water:

**Two Shrouds: Turin and Manoppello**
The Shroud of Turin and the Veil of Manoppello preserve two mysterious images believed by many to show the face of Jesus.
Thanks to the research of Sister Blandina Paschalis Schlömer, we know that the facial features visible on both cloths are remarkably compatible. When the images are carefully superimposed, many important details align.
The process of the Resurrection remains unknown, and we still cannot fully explain how these images were formed—one on linen cloth and the other on a delicate byssus veil.
No visible paint. No ordinary photographic process. No simple explanation.
The mystery continues, but today we can pause and contemplate what may be one of the most extraordinary representations of the face of Jesus.

**The Miracle at the Pool of Siloam**

At the Pool of Siloam, Jesus performed one of the most remarkable miracles described in the Gospel of John—giving sight to a man who had been blind from birth.

But the Pool of Siloam is not only part of the biblical story. It is also an archaeological reality.

In 2004, during municipal work on Jerusalem’s water system, workers uncovered ancient stone steps. Archaeologists soon recognized them as part of the Pool of Siloam used during the time of Jesus.

The pool received water from the Gihon Spring through Hezekiah’s Tunnel—an extraordinary ancient engineering project that carried water beneath the City of David.

From the Pool of Siloam, pilgrims walked toward the Temple along the magnificent Pilgrimage Road. This monumental road was paved with massive limestone slabs.

Today, archaeology allows us to see the places, roads and water systems that formed the physical setting of the Gospel accounts.

Watch the video and discover the archaeology behind the Miracle at Siloam.
