Benyamim: So, he took the temple, folded it, folded the tent and hid it in one of the caves. But when he returned after two days to the place, he didn’t find the mouth of the cave.
Nehemia: So now it's missing in a cave somewhere…
Benyamim: Well, it sounds like a legend, okay?
Nehemia: Yeah.
Benyamim: It sounds like a legend, but fortunately, Josephus Flavius, the Jewish historian, confirmed the story…
Nehemia: Shalom, this is Nehemia Gordon with Hebrew Voices, and today I am on Mount Gerizim with Benyamim Tsedaka. He is the editor of A.B The Samaritan News and the head of the A.B Institute of Samaritan Studies. He's written 107 books and is working on his 108th and 109th books! Shalom Benyamim.
Benyamim: Not only written, but also published.

“The king of Assyria took the books from the Israelites, and also the book of the holy law written by our lord Abisha the son of Phinehas, son of Eleazar the priest. He put it in the tower of Nineveh.”

Very much looking forward to the upcoming episodes.
Concerning the furniture in the holy place, is there a 2 houps on the altar of incense? Others have said four.
Absolutely loved this episode, so refreshing and informational. The dialogue was interestingly amazing. Thank you so very much for your continued conversations.
After hearing this it seems that Solomon two sons gave us these two views both traditional in there view but it makes sence this could be the result
All comes back to Torah I must get there view and see the difference
That should do it only ten minutes but had get thought out there
Wow! Great interview Nehemia!
I’ve been waiting expectantly for YEARS to hear this one!
His points about king David are similar with my thoughts. Does David have authority to modify torah? Of course not. A person doing that is what “antichrist” is all about!
Christians think the son of david has that authority too.
He is a very interesting Character. I’m definitely looking forward to the other two episodes that are coming
