Antique Treasure Found in Condemned Home

An ancient Cana’anite home dating to the Amorite Period was condemned several weeks ago due to the appearance of suspicious spots on the walls. During the partial demolition process, construction workers came across a pile of dusty coins and other precious artifacts.

Archeologists believe they had been hidden by the original homeowners of Cana’an. “I can hardly believe it,” said the owner of the house, Berel Balabos. “I am so thankful to HaShem, who told us that our house needed to be taken apart. And this all came from talking too much. I’m speechless!”
