"A stone tablet with an ancient Roman inscription detailing a previously unknown Roman governor in the period leading up to the Bar Kokhba revolt is discovered underwater in Tel Dor; 'This is only the second time that the name Judea is mentioned in writing from the Roman period.'"

"Previous research posited that Antiquus was commissioner of the province of Syria, but in light of this new discovery, it is proved without a doubt that Gargilius Antiquus was the Roman governor of Judea in the years before the outbreak of the Bar Kokhba revolt in 131 CE."

"Prayer Focus
"Rejoice in the Lord as the practice of the past to write on stone, proves today the truthfulness of the Bible and the history of Israel. Bring all the archaeologists before the Lord as they find and preserve artifacts in the Land."
