The Museum of the Bible in Washington D.C. (U.S.) is currently displaying the earliest known inscription identifying Jesus as God in the form of a mosaic found in ancient Megiddo, northern Israel, dubbed the “Megiddo Mosaic.” On display from last September until July 6 next year, 2025, the mosaic “adds much to our understanding of early Christian communities in the Holy Land,” according to the Biblical Archaeology Society (BAS).
