After ruling in Hebron, King David sets his sights on Jerusalem, but the city is nearly impossible to conquer.

The Bible describes a surprising strategy: a single man climbing up a hidden water shaft to gain access.

But is there evidence this really happened?

In this episode, we:
• Explore Warren’s Shaft, discovered by Charles Warren in 1867
• Examine how the ancient Jebusite city of Jerusalem was defended
• Investigate archaeological discoveries in the City of David
• Discuss the Tel Dan Inscription, one of the earliest references to the “House of David”
• Consider evidence for the possible location of King David’s palace
