Mark Traupman has a BS in Chemistry from DeSales University in Pennsylvania. Traupman used the scientific method to explore the history of ancient Israel.
The top Bible scholars of the world have used the scientific method. They researched...and researched...and researched...but, they could find no evidence for a physical Jesus.
Fortunately, the last 200 years have yielded more concrete evidence to help us understand the distant past. Over the past two centuries, research and new technologies have enabled mankind in the search for evidence of a physical Jesus.
In their research, Biblical scholars uncovered a significant (but little known) piece of evidence. Two thousand years ago, when the nation of Israel was occupied by the Roman Empire and before the Romans subsequently destroyed the Temple of Jerusalem in 70 AD and the status quo of Israel's society as well, the rabbis at the Temple had a quite different method of interpreting Scripture than the one known to Western culture today.
