    Wholeheartedly recommend this video to my history geek friends. Can't believe that I'd never heard of the MURASU ARCHIVE before. This is the "missing link" that I've been seeking to understand how the international banking system transitioned from weighted pieces of silver money to minted, state-issued, coin money between the 7th and 4th centuries BCE. Also, the presentation by the rabbi in the second half about Antiochus IV and how history confirms the validity of the 11th chapter of the Bible book of Daniel blew me away. I wish somebody would produce a TV mini series from that research. #Banking #Silver

    Yes Rabbi Benjamin did an excellent job. He has spent considerable time on this chapter of Daniel. I truly appreciate him.

    Find genealogy, then nearby graves, then DNA, then modern lines, then work backwards and connect everyone.

    Group prayer happened at the temple. Remember the birkat kohanim and other circumstances. What did you think the sacrifice is, if not a form of prayer done on behalf of many. And the psalms they sung? It has a tradition that was around before the tribes of Israel. Theodotus probably had his "normal" name, and then what they called him in synagogue. Study Jewish theology, and they will teach a lot about the context and history that can help things make sense. And Moses was "at" the battles. A "messenger" is likely a fanciful device for the stage.

    The best thing to postpone Armageddon now is that the lost Taliban Israelite tribes are probably not suddenly going to pack up and march back to their ancestral homeland

    Someone pls tell the first speaker to stop saying “ahh.” We learned this in high school.

    The first speaker is so annoying by saying “aaah aaahh.” I hope someone told him how annoying and distracting that is; especially at his age and expertise level.
