How Does Geshur Add Evidence For King David's Existence? | Video 7 (David & The Giants)

For many years, scholars thought Geshur was a mythical city. In the final episode of Part: 1 in the “David & The Giants” series, Michael Lane adds support of King David’s existence by providing evidence for the location of an Old Testament Kingdom of Geshur and its capital. According to the Bible, the city of Geshur is the location in which King David’s son fled, to the north and the south of The Sea of Galilee. Archaeologists have excavated various lands throughout history to discover the true location of Geshur, and Dr. Steven Notley suggests a site that fits what the Biblical description relays, reflecting what we are seeing with archaeology and other ancient sources. Visit the E4F studio with Michael and learn how the city of Geshur adds support for the existence of King David.

You have joined Episode 7 of the “David & The Giants” series, a three-part series to uncover evidence found in archaeology and prove the existence of King David, Goliath, and the Giants.
