Jesus Family Tomb: Was Jesus Really Married?

The discovery of the Jesus tomb has created much discussion and debate in recent months. In fact, the lost tomb of Jesus is believed by some individuals to be one of the most important archaeological discoveries; however, other individuals reject the tomb as the Jesus family tomb. But what exactly is the tomb of Jesus, who discovered this tomb and where is it located?

What is the Lost Tomb of Jesus?

The Jesus Christ tomb that was uncovered in Jerusalem was found in East Talpiot, a suburb of the centuries-old city. A burgeoning industrial center, East Talpiot is a modern neighborhood that is home to upscale shops and nightclubs. As such, it is a part of Jerusalem that is attractive to many middle and working class immigrants who seek new employment opportunities and a high quality of life.

Referred to as the Jesus family tomb, the tomb uncovered in East Talpiot is believed to be that of Jesus and his family. The tomb contained ossuaries (bone boxes) belonging to Jesus (Yeshua bar Yosef), Mary Magdalene (Mariamene e Mara), Mary (Maria, Jesus’ mother), as well as Judah (Yehuda bar Josef), who is believed to be the son of Jesus and Mary Magdalne. The other ossuaries belonged to Joseph (Yose), Jesus’ brother and Matia (Matthew), a relative of Mary, Jesus’ mother.

The findings are based on inscriptions found on the ossuaries as well as DNA gathered from chemical patina lining the bone boxes – that is, the thin film that accumulates on the surface of artifacts.

Who Discovered the Jesus Tomb?

Filmmaker, author and journalist Simcha Jacobovici and his team of archeologists and Biblical experts declared the tomb to be that of Jesus of Nazareth, making their findings made known to the public in 2006 with a documentary entitled The Lost Tomb of Jesus.

In 1980s, Shimon Gibson and his team worked on the same East Talpiot site and their excavations made the site more accessible and established a detailed record of the layout of the tomb, including a map with the specific locations of the ossuaries. These findings were publicized in 1996 and provided the foundation for Jacobovici’s discovery.

The Tomb of Jesus: Background Details

The ossuaries uncovered in the East Talpiot tomb of Jesus Christ were part of secondary burial ritual practices common among Jewish people living in Jerusalem was a tradition that was popular from 30 BCE to 70 CE.

Ossuaries were used to bury the remains of the deceased individual in the tomb after the body had decomposed for a period of approximately one year. The ossuaries were inscribed with the individual’s name as well as his contributions (if applicable) as well as decorations, including geometric designs, as ornamentations such as vines and lilies. The use of ossuaries was usually reserved to those considered to be of an élite socio-economic class.
