The Faculty of the University of the Holy Land comment again on the Jesus Family Tomb issue. This time in particular they make some interesting observations on the frequency of the use of the familiar name Yoseh (YWSH) as compared with the more formal form, Yehosef (YHWSF). The posting is interesting, but the post’s title is a real groaner of a pun! (If you don't get it, let me know in the comments to this post.)
