Abstract

Yardeni talks about a gray-colored stone with inscriptions that are clearly dated by the shape and form of the letters (paleography) to sometime between the late first century B. C. E. and early first century C. E.--around the turn of the era, the same period as the scrolls. She discusses the stone's written text that bears another resemblance to the famous Dead Sea Scrolls. Moreover, it is believed that the composer of this text belongs to the group supporting the Davidic messiah.
