- Summary:
- "Jerusalem is at the heart of the longstanding and ongoing struggles in the Middle East, yet archaeologists have been unable to find traces of any people living there at the time of King David. Based on the archaeological evidence unearthed to-date, Jerusalem in King David’s time appears to have been a small, poor village or town, not a city-state at all. One finds no references to a united monarchy under a King David, with Jerusalem as its capital city, anywhere else than in the Old Testament of the Bible. In the fourth part of this startling series, John McCarthy looks at what that may mean, and also uncovers the truth about Goliath"-- Heritage Broadcasting Service
