Inscriptions like the Pontius Pilate Inscription (c. 26–36 CE), Tel Dan Stele (c. 9th century BCE, mentioning “House of David”), and Caiaphas Ossuary (c. 1st century CE) confirm biblical figures or settings. Over 50 biblical figures (e.g., David, Pilate, Caiaphas) are attested in archaeology, with new finds increasing this number.
Statistical Insight: The frequency of archaeological confirmations (e.g., ~50% of major New Testament figures have some corroboration) supports the historical context of Jesus’ life, death, and teachings, though not the resurrection directly.
