THE British Museum yesterday hailed a discovery within a clay tablet in its collection as a breakthrough for biblical archeology – proof of the accuracy of the Old Testament.
The cuneiform inscription in a tablet dating from 595BC has been deciphered for the first time – revealing a reference to an official at the court of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, that proves the historical existence of a figure mentioned in the Book of Jeremiah.

While my initial reaction was “Wow, how cool is that !” I almost forgot how utterly possible this is for God. He is way cooler than I think.

No archaeological discovery has ever proven the bible to be untrue.
