Mosaic by A. GardereTwo brothers, Moshe and Yuval Lufan, discovered the Galilee boat known as "The Jesus Boat", in 1986. Moshe and Yuval, second generation fisherman from Kibbutz Ginosar, grew up on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. It was a huge drought and fishermen need fish to make a living.
The boat began to appear as hope grew wan. Instead of a time of uncertainty, it became a time of joy.
As they were discovering the boat, a double rainbow appeared in the sky. Ginosar, the Antiquities Authority, and many volunteers took part in the archaeological dig which lasted 12 days and nights. The discovery of this Galilee Boat caused a stir throughout the world, especially when it was conclusively dated to the first century A.D. – the time of Jesus.
The boat, made of twelve different types of wood, is now on exhibit at Kibbutz Ginosar. It is 9 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 1.25 meters high.
Mark 8:11-13
11 When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had arrived, they came and started to argue with him. Testing him, they demanded that he show them a miraculous sign from heaven to prove his authority.
12 When he heard this, he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why do these people keep demanding a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, I will not give this generation any such sign.” 13 So he got back into the boat and left them, and he crossed to the other side of the lake.
Philipians 2:5-11
5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
7 but made himself nothing,
taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

Hello Anu, I would agree with you, He is King of King and Lord of Lords. The way your comment would have published would have stuck the word Anu in with that praise. So thank you for the commentary praising our Father God.
