Efrem: TODAY ON
"NEWSWATCH," HE SAID
HILLARY CLINTON WAS
EXTREMELY CARELESS AND
SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER.
NOW REPUBLICANS WANT TO
KNOW WHY THE F.B.I.
DIRECTOR DIDN'T PRESS
CHARGES.
PLUS...INSIDE THE CLINTON
WHITE HOUSE, A SECRET
SERVICE AGENT REVEALS
SHOCKING TRUTHS ABOUT
HILLARY CLINTON.
> AND ISRAEL'S BEST
FRIEND, BENJAMIN
NETANYAHU, EXTENDS AN OPEN
INTATIOINVITATION TO PERSECUTED
CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE
EAST.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
JOINING US FOR CBN
"NEWSWATCH."
I'M EFREM GRAHAM.
IT IS OFFICIAL, NEITHER
THE F.B.I. NOR THE
ATTORNEY-GENERAL ARE
CHARGING HILLARY CLINTON
FOR USING A PERSONAL
E-MAIL SERVER TO HANDLE
CLASSIFIED INFORMATION.
BUT REPUBLICANS IN
CONGRESS ARE PROMISING
HEADLINES OVER CLINTON'S
SERVER WILL NOT GO AWAY
ANY TIME SOON.
CAITLIN BURKE HAS MORE.
Reporter: F.B.I.
DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY
ADDRESSING LAWMAKERS
TODAY, EAGER TO UNDERSTAND
WHY HIS AGENCY WOULDN'T
RECOMMEND CRIMINAL CHARGES
BE FILED AGAINST HILLARY
CLINTON.
OUR JUDGMENT IS THAT NO
REASONABLE PROSECUTOR
WOULD BRING SUCH A CASE.
Reporter: IT WAS
ANNOUNCED ON TUESDAY, BUT
DESPITE HIS
RECOMMENDATION, COMEY
HARSHLY CRITICIZED CLINTON
FOR USING PRIVATE E-MAIL
SERVERS TO CONDUCT
GOVERNMENT BUSINESS.
THERE IS EVIDENCE THEY
WERE EXTREMELY CARELESS IN
THEIR HANDLING OF VERY
SENSITIVE, HIGHLY
CLASSIFIED INFORMATION.
Reporter: IT HAS
MEMBER REPUBLICANS AND
CONSERVATIVES RAISING
QUESTIONS AS TO WHY NO
CHARGES WERE RECOMMENDED.
CHAIRMAN JASON CHAVEZ SAID
IN A STATEMENT: "THE
F.B.I.'S RECOMMENDATION IS
SURPRISING AND CONFUSING."
THE FACT PATTERN PRESENTED
BY DIRECTOR COMEY MAKES
CLEAR THAT SECRETARY
CLINTON VIOLATED THE LAW.
CHAVEZ GOES ON TO SAY THAT
CONGRESS AND THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO
UNDERSTAND THE F.B.I.'S
INVESTIGATION.
CLINTON HAS MAINTAINED SHE
HAS NEVER SENT OR RECEIVED
E-MAILS THAT WERE MARKED
CLASSIFIED, AND YET COMEY
SAYS THE F.B.I. FOUND OVER
100 E-MAILS ON HER SERVER
THAT CONTAINED THE
CLASSIFIED MARKING, AS
WELL AS ANY INFORMATION.
ANY REASONABLE PERSON
IN SECRETARY CLINTON'S
POSITION SO HAVE KNOWN
THAT AN UNCLASSIFIED
INFORMATION WAS NO PLACE
FOR THAT CONVERSATION.
Reporter Reporter: STILL, THE
F.B.I. DIRECTOR SAYS THE
INVESTIGATION DID NOT FIND
CLEAR EVIDENCE THAT SHE
HAD INTENTIONALLY BROKEN
THE LAW.
ON WEDNESDAY,
ATTORNEY-GENERAL LORETTA
LYNCH OFFICIALLY CLOSED
THE YEAR-LONG
INVESTIGATION AGAINST
CLINTON.
LYNCH WILL ALSO TESTIFY
BEFORE CONGRESS LATER THIS
MONTH.

PROTESTORS GATHERED ON THE
STREETS AFTER VIDEO OF THE
TRAFFIC STOP WAS RELEASED.
THE WOMAN IN THE DRIVER'S
SEAT USED Facebook LIVE
TO BROADCAST THE SHOOTING.
IT SHOWS A MAN SITTING IN
THE PASSENGER SEAT, DYING
AFTER THE OFFICER SHOT HIM
IN THE ARM.
SHE SAYS CASTIL WAS
REACHING FOR THIS I.D.
WHEN THE OFFICER SHOT HIM.
> ISLAMIC TERRORISTS
HERALD HOME MADE BOMBS AND
ENGAGED IN A GUN BATTLE
WITH POLICE.
AT LEAST ONE OF THE BOMBS
EXPLODED DURING THE
PRAYER, WHICH WAS ATTENDED
BY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS.
FOUR PEOPLE DIED DURING
THE ATTACK, AND DOZENS
OTHERS WERE INJURED.
IT COMES DAYS AFTER THE
DEADLY HOSTAGE INCIDENT AT
AN UP-HELD RESTAURANT
THERE THAT LEFT 28 PEOPLE
DEAD.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU MET
WITH A GROUP OF
EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS IN
NAIROBI, KENYA, ON HIS
FOUR-DAY TRIP TO AFRICA.
HE SAID ISRAEL HAS NO
BETTER FRIENDS THAN
CHRISTIANS, WHO SUPPORT
AND LOVE ISRAEL.
Reporter: THE SOUND
OF SOFFAS GREETED BENJAMIN
NETANYAHU.
HE INVITED THE CROWD TO
COME TO ISRAEL, THE LAND
OF THE BIBLE.
THOSE OF YOU HAVEN'T
COME, COME THE FIRST TIME,
AND THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN,
COME AGAIN.
YOU'LL COME TO THE SEA OF
GALILEE.
> IT IS A FISHING
BOTTLEBOAT,AND IT IS RIGHT AT THE
TIME OF JESUS.
SO IT STANDS THERE IN
KIBBUTZ, AND WHEN YOU COME
THERE, YOU WILL SEE IT.
I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT
JESUS WAS ON THAT BOAT.
BUT I CAN TELL YOU THAT
THAT BOAT WAS IN THE TIME
OF JESUS.
Reporter: HE
DESCRIBED THE COMMON BOND
OF JEWS AND CHRISTIANS
GROUNDED IN THE LAND OF
THE BIBLE.
THESE ARE REAL PLACES.
THEY SPEAK TO YOU AND THEY
SPEAK TO US.
WE CAME BACK TO THE LAND
OF ISRAEL AND REALIZED THE
DREAMS OF THE PROPHETS, OF
THE IN-GATHERING, AND I'M
GLAD I HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY, THE
PRIVILEGE, REALLY, OF
COMING TO AFRICA TO MEET
YOU.
WE HAVE NO BETTER FRIENDS
IN THE WORLD -- NONE.
WE APPRECIATE OUR FRIENDS.
[APPLAUSE]
AND WE'RE EXPANDING IT
INTO THE CONTINENT OF
AFRICA.
Reporter: NETANYAHU'S
TRIP REPRESENTS A NEW
BEGINNING IN
AFRICAN-ISRAELI RELATIONS.
SEVEN LEADERS FROM
SEVEN AFRICAN COUNTRIES
TALKING ABOUT HOW TO
EXPAND THEIR RELATIONSHIP
WITH ISRAEL.
ISRAEL IS COMING BACK TO
AFRICA.
AFRICA IS COMING BACK TO
ISRAEL.
WE WANT TO SEE AFRICA BE
THE SUCCESS STORY IT CAN
BE.
AND WE WANT TO BE PART OF
IT, IN WATER, IN DAILY
PRODUCTION, AND WE'RE
EAGER TO SHARE ALL OF THIS
WITH OUR AFRICAN FRIENDS.
Reporter: AND HE ALSO
DESCRIBED THE DISMAL
SITUATION FOR CHRISTIANS
IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
AND THE MIDDLE EAST
TODAY, UNFORTUNATELY, THE
ATTITUDE TOWARDS
CHRISTIANS AND
CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A GOOD
ONE.
YOU SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING
WITH DAESH AND WHAT IS
HAPPENING TO THE CHRISTIAN
COMMUNITIES AND TO THE
YAZIDI AND TO THE OTHERS.
THERE IS ONE PLACE IN THE
MIDDLE EAST WHERE THE
CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY IS NOT
ONLY NOT SHRINKING, IT IS
THRIVING AND EXPANDING,
AND IT IS SAFE AND IT IS
WELCOME, AND THAT PLACE IS
ISRAEL.
YOU ARE WELCOME IN ISRAEL.
Reporter: AT THE END
OF THE MEETING, THE
CHRISTIAN LEADERS
PRESENTED NETANYAHU WITH A
GIFT.
CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,
JERUSALEM.
Efrem: FORMER FOX
NEWS ANCHOR GRETCHEN
CARLSON IS SUING THE
NETWORK'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE.
SHE CLAIMS SHE WAS FIRED
BECAUSE SHE REFUSED HIS
SEXUAL ADVANCES.
SHE SAYS HE REPORTEDLY
TOLD HER, QUOTE,"YOU AND I
SHOULD HAVE HAD A SEXUAL
RELATIONSHIP A LONG TIME
AGO."
AND SHE SAID THERE WAS A
PATTERN OF DISCRIMINATORY
BEHAVIOR AT FOX.
IN HER LAST ROLE AT FOX,
SHE ANCHORED A SHOW CALLED
"THE REAL STORY," AND THAT
CAME AFTER 11 YEARS.
FOX HAS RESPONDED TO
CARLSON'S LAWSUIT SAYING
HER CONTRACT WAS SIMPLY
NOT RENEWED, AND THAT IS
WHY SHE FILED HER SUIT.
> COMING UP, EXPLOSIVE
TEMPERS, NAME-CALLING, AND
BIBLE BASHING, ONE FORMER
SECURITY SERVICE AGENT
TELLS THE INSIDE SCOOP ON
THE CLINTON YEARS.
DON'T GO AWAY.
Efrem: SO WHAT REALLY
WENT ON IN THE WHITE HOUSE
WHEN PRESIDENT BILL
CLINTON WAS IN OFFICE, AND
HILLARY CLINTON WAS FIRST
LADY.
A SECRET SERVICE AGENT WHO
WAS THERE HAS WRITTEN A
BOOK ABOUT WHAT HE SAW
BEHIND THE SCENES.
HE SAYS THE PRIVATE
HILLARY CLINTON WAS VERY
DIFFERENT FROM WHAT PEOPLE
SAW IN PUBLIC.
JENNIFER WISHON HAS THIS
STORY.
Jennifer: AS A
UNIFORMED OFFICER IN THE
SECRET SERVICE, GARY
BANGERBARNES STOOD STAND OUTSIDE
THE OFFICE WHILE THE
CLINTONS WERE INSIDE.
HIS NEW BOOK, "CRISIS OF
CHARACTER," A WHITE HOUSE
SECURITY SERVICE OFFICER
DISCLOSES HIS FIRSTHAND
EXPERIENCE WITH HILLARY
AND BILL.
HE SAYS SHE EVEN THREW A
BIBLE AT ONE AGENT,
HITTING HIM IN FRON THE HEAD.
HE SAID OUTSIDE THE PUBLIC
EYE, SHE WAS COLD,
EMOTIONAL, AND EVEN
DANGEROUS.
BURNES SAYS HE TRIED TO
KEEP MONICA LEWINSKY AWAY
FROM PRESIDENT CLINTON,
AND HE CONCEALED SEVERAL
AFFAIRS HE HAD INSIDE THE
OVAL OFFICE.
INCLUDING ONE WITH WALTER
MONDALE'S DAUGHTER.
CLINTON ALLIES ARE
FIGHTING BACK, SAYING THAT
BURNES DIDN'T HAVE THE
ACCESS HE CLAIMS.
BUT BURNES WRITES, FROM
THE BOTTOM OF HIS SOUL, HE
KNOWS SHE LACKS THE
INTEGRITY AND TEMPERMENT
TO SERVE AS PRESIDENT.
Efrem: CBN FOUNDER
PAPAT ROBERTSON SPOKE WITH
FORMER SECRET SERVICE
OFFICER GARY BURNINGS.
>GARY BURNES.
I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD
BE COMPELLED TO DO THIS.
BUT AS TIME WENT ON, I
FELT IT IS MY DUTY TO LET
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE KNOW
BECAUSE THIS PERSON WANTS
TO BECOME THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES.
I DON'T THINK IT IS A GOOD
THING.
CLEARLY I MADE A DECISION
TO GO FORWARD AND TELL
THESE THINGS THAT NORMALLY
WOULDN'T BE TOLD.
BUT IT IS NOT THE FIRST
TIME SOMEBODY FROM THE
SECRET SERVICE HAS DONE
THIS.
AND I WASN'T THE ONE THAT
COMPELLED ME TO TESTIFY.
IT WAS PRESIDENT CLINTON'S
BEHAVIOR THAT BROUGHT
MYSELF AND ALL OF THESE
OTHER SECRET SERVICE
EMPLOYEES INTO THIS MONICA
LEWINSKY SCANDAL.
IT WAS THEIR BEHAVIOR THAT
SET THIS UP.
Pat: GARY, I WANT TO
READ SOMETHING THAT IS IN
HERE, TO SET THINGS UP.
LET'S SAY IT STRAIGHT OUT,
HILLARY CLINTON LIED ABOUT
THE REASON FOR THE
BENGHAZI ATTACK.
SHE LIED ABOUT IT TO THE
NATION AS A WHOLE, AND SHE
LIED RIGHT IN THE FACES OF
GRIEVING FAMILY MEMBERS OF
THOSE WHO DIED THERE, AND
THEN LIED ABOUT HER LYING.
SHE KEEPS TELLING
AMERICANS ONE HUGE,
DISGUSTING LIE AFTER
ANOTHER.
HILLARY HAS CLAIMED,
QUOTE,"WE DIDN'T LOSE A
SINGLE PERSON IN LIBYA"
REALLY?
TRY TELLING THAT TO THE
FAMILIES WHO LOST MEMBERS.
YOU HAVE FIRSTHAND
EXAMPLES OF HER LYING.
COULD YOU GIVE US A COUPLE
OF THEM?
THE THINGS I SAY IN MY
BOOK, "CRISIS OF
CHARACTER," IS MOSTLY
ABOUT HER BEHAVIOR.
BUT CERTAINLY THE CASE
THAT YOU CITE, WITH
MR. SMITH, WHERE -- HOW DO
YOU TELL A GRIEVING MOTHER
ONE THING AND LATER ON SHE
FINDS OUT THE TRUTH IS
SOMETHING ELSE.
AND AT THE SAME TIME SHE
IS LYING TO THIS MOTHER,
SHE IS TEXTING OTHER
PEOPLE AND TELLING THAT
WHAT THE TRUTH IS, THAT IT
WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK.
THAT'S THE BEST EXAMPLE
THAT I'VE SEEN RECENTLY.
OTHER EXAMPLES I CITE IN
MY BOOK, "CRISIS OF
CHARACTER" -- THERE ARE
MANY OF THEM.
Pat: WHAT ABOUT HER?
YOU MENTIONED SHE THREW
THINGS AT ONE THE SECRET
SERVICE MEMBERS.
AS I UNDERSTAND, SHE HIT
SOMEBODY ON THE HEAD WITH
A BIBLE ON THE WAY TO
CHURCH OR SOMETHING.
IS THAT WHAT HAPPENED?
ONE MORNING I WAS
STANDING POSTED WITH AN
AGENT OUTSIDE THE OVAL
OFFICE.
I SAID, I HEARD SOMEBODY
GOT HIT WITH A BIBLE, WHAT
HAPPENED?
HE SAID, IT WAS ME.
HE SAID HE WAS IN THE
LIMOUSINE, AND THE FIRST
LADY WAS SITTING BEHIND
HIM.
AND SHE WAS IRATE ABOUT
SOMETHING, AND SHE HAD A
BIBLE IN HER HAND AND SHE
STRUCK HIM IN THE BACK OF
THE HEAD WITH THE BIBLE
FOR SOME REASON.
AND IT MADE HIM VERY MAD.
HE TURNED AROUND THE BEST
HE COULD, SITTING IN THAT
CAR, AND HE JUST DESCRIBED
TO HER THAT THAT WASN'T
GOING TO BE ACCEPTABLE
BEHAVIOR.
AND HE REPORTED IT UP THE
CHAIN OF COMMAND, BUT
BASICALLY THEIR ATTITUDE
WITH THIS KIND OF THING
IS, THAT'S THE WAY SHE IS.
THAT'S WHAT'S GOING TO
HAPPEN.
IT IS NOT THE FIRST
INCIDENT, AND IT WON'T BE
THE LAST.
AND ANOTHER TIME I WAS
ASKED TO DO A TOUR OF THE
OVAL OFFICE, MY OLD POST,
FOR SOME GUESTS OF THE
CLINTONS FROM ARKANSAS.
THIS STAFF MEMBER WANTED
TO BRING THEM OVER AND
LEAVE THEM IN THE OVAL
OFFICE, WHICH IS NOT
ACCEPTABLE.
THERE ARE MANY RULES AND
GUIDELINES THAT DICTATE
HOW PEOPLE -- WHEN THE
PRESIDENT IS NOT IN THE
OVAL OFFICE, HOW THE STAFF
OR THE FAMILY CAN GO IN
AND GO OUT OF THERE.
I EXPLAINED TO THE STAFF
MEMBER WHAT SHE WANTED TO
DO WASN'T POSSIBLE, BUT
SHE COULD ESCORT THEM AND
TAKE THEM ACROSS THE
HALLWAY TO THE ROOSEVELT
ROOM.
SHE SAID THIS WASN'T
ACCEPTABLE, AND THE STAFF
MEMBER BERATED ME, AND I'M
GOING TO TELL
MRS. CLINTON.
AS I'M RETELLING THE STORY
AGAIN, IT SEEMS SO
CHILD-LIKE.
A LITTLE WHILE LATER THE
FIRSTED LADY COMES DOWN
AND SHE BERATES ME AND
USES A LITTLE BIT OF HARSH
LANGUAGE, AND TELLS ME
SHE'S TIRED OF DEALING
WITH US.
I TRY TO TELL HER THAT
THESE ARE RULES AND
GUIDELINES THAT ARE SET IN
LAW.
AND I WOULD TRY TO
ACCOMMODATE HER.
AFTER SHE BERATED ME A
LITTLE MORE, I SAID,
LISTEN, WHEN YOUR GUESTS
ARE DONE IN THE OVAL
OFFICE, I'LL PUT THEM IN
THE ROOSEVELT ROOM AND
THAT WILL BE THE END OF
IT.
BUT THESE INTERACTIONS
WITH HER, WITH MY
CO-WORKERS -- THERE WERE
MANY OTHERS.
I HAVE A COUPLE MORE, IF
YOU HAVE THE TIME.
Pat: GO AHEAD.
I'M LISTENING.
TWO OFFICERS, THEY WERE
PRETTY NEW TO THE JOB,
THEY WERE ON LESS THAN A
YEAR.
AND MORNING I WAS IN A
BREAK ROOM, AND ONE OF THE
OFFICERS CAME DOWN AND HE
SAID, TODAY IS A WEIRD
DAY.
AND I SAID, HOW IS THAT?
AND HE SAID, I JUST SAID
HELLO TO THE FIRST LADY,
AND SHE TOLD ME TO GO TO
HELL.
AND WE KIND OF LOOKED AT
HIM, AND WE SAID, YOU'VE
GOT TO GET USED TO THAT.
SHE SEEMS HOSTILE TOWARDS
US.
WE TOLD HIM OUR OPINION,
WHAT WE EXPERIENCED WAS,
SHE DIDN'T SEEM TO LIKE
THE MILITARY OR LAW
ENFORCEMENT.
SO AS WE'RE TALKING,
ANOTHER GUY COMES OVER AND
GOES, THAT'S NOTHING.
A MONTH AGO I SAID GOOD
MORNING TO HER, AND SHE
TOLD ME TO GO (bleep)
MYSELF.
SO A SERGEANT OVERHEARD
US, AND HE REPORTED IT UP
THE CHAIN OF COMMAND, AND
THE SENIOR PEOPLE IN THE
SECRET SERVICE TOOK IT
PRETTY SERIOUS.
THEY APOLOGIZED, BUT THEY
EXPLAINED TO HIM BASICALLY
THE SAME THING WE HAD TOLD
HIM, THAT THE FIRST LADY
WAS KIND OF HOSTILE
TOWARDS US AT TIMES, AND
THAT'S THE WAY IT WAS.
Pat: YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT THE "F" WORD --
YES, SIR.
Pat: ADDRESSED HIM
AND TOLD HIM TO GO BLANK
HIMSELF.
YES, SIR.
Pat: PEOPLE DON'T
TALK THAT WAY, ESPECIALLY
THE FIRST LADY OF THE
UNITED STATES.
I DON'T MIND IF PEOPLE
USE SALTY LANGUAGE, BUT
WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT TO
A MAN WHO HAS BEEN UP ALL
NIGHT PROTECTING YOU.
AND THREE YEARS BEFORE
THAT, THAT PERSON WAS A
VETERAN -- HE WAS IN THE
U.S. ARMY, EXCUSE ME.
AND HE WAS ON A MISSION IN
SOMALIA, EARLY ON IN
SOMALIA, NOT LIKE TODAY
WHAT WE WOULD CALL
BLACKHAWK DOWN, BUT THIS
IS BEFORE THAT.
HE RECEIVED A PURPLE HEART
FOR BEING WOUNDED.
THREE YEARS LATER HE GETS
A JOB WITH THE SECRET
SERVICE, AND THE FIRST
LADY TELLS HIM TO GO "F"
HIMSELF.
THAT IS NEVER ACCEPTABLE.
Pat: YOU SAID IN YOUR
BOOK YOU DON'T THINK SHE
HAS THE CHARACTER TO BE
PRESIDENT.
DO YOU WANT TO EXPLAIN
THAT?
WHEN SHE WAS SECRETARY
OF STATE, WE HAD THE
INCIDENT WITH BENGHAZI.
SOMEBODY WITH CHARACTER,
SOMEBODY WHO IS A REAL
LATER, WOULD HAVE STAYED
ON AS SECRETARY OF STATE
AND PUT PROCEDURES IN
PLACE THAT WOULD NEVER LET
THAT HAPPEN AGAIN.
INSTEAD OF SHIFTING BLAME,
MAKING UP LIES, AND
TELLING THE FAMILIES LIES,
AND THEN JUST MOVING ON
STARTING TO RUN FOR
PRESIDENT.
A LEADER FIXES THINGS AND
GETS IT RIGHT AND THEN
MOVES ON.
Efrem: AND FOR MUCH
MORE OF GARY BURNES' STORY
AND HOW IT IS MAKING WAVES
IN THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE,
YOU CAN FIND ANOTHER
INTERVIEW WITH HIM IN THE
VIDEO IN OUR Facebook
PAGE WHERE HE LAYS OUT
THREE THINGS YOU SHOULD
KNOW ABOUT HILLARY
CLINTON.
> UP NEXT, NEW EVIDENCE
CHRISTIANITY SPREAD
RAPIDLY DURING THE FIFTH
THE CENTURY.
DISCOVER ISRAELI
ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES FOUND
IN THE MOST UNLIKELY
PLACES.
Efrem: IN ISRAEL, THE
GROWING CONSTRUCTION SITES
HAVE UNCOVERED SOME
ANCIENT TREASURES IN
UNLIKELY PLACES.
CHRIS MITCHELL BRINGS US
THIS LOOK AT WHAT
ARCHEOLOGISTS ARE FINDING,
INCLUDING HISTORIC
EVIDENCE OF HOW
CHRISTIANITY SPREAD
RAPIDLY IN THE REGION
AROUND THE FIFTH CENTURY.
Chris: HERE IN
ISRAEL'S CENTRAL PLAINS, A
BUILDING BOOM DOTS THE SKY
LINES, WITH CRANES IN
PLACES LIKE RUSSIAEIM.
THEY CONDUCT WHAT THEY
CALL A SALVAGE EXCAVATION.
WE STARTED DIGGING
HERE, OKAY, AND WE DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT WE WERE GOING TO
FIND.
AFTER THREE MONTHS, WE
EXPOSED A LARGE MONASTERY.
Chris: THE DISCOVERY
OF MANY IMPRESSIVE
CHURCHES AND MONASTERIES
SHOWED THAT CHRISTIANITY
SPREAD RAPIDLY AROUND THE
FIFTH CENTURY.
THIS EXCAVATION DIRECTOR
SAYS THE BIZANTINE CHURCH
IS PAINTED WITH THE
COLORFUL MOSAIC.
IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME
LIKE TODAY.
PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW THAT
THEY GAVE THE MONEY -- AND
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IT
IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO BUILD
A COMPLEX LIKE THIS.
Chris: THE INS
INSCRIPTION SAYS, "PEACE
BE UPON YOU WHEN YOU COME,
AND PEACE BE UPON YOU WHEN
YOU GO."
CHADMAN BELIEVES THEY WERE
ALSO FARMERS.
THE COMPOUND INCLUDED
LIVING QUARTERS, STABLES,
AND AN OLIVE OIL PRESS.
HE SAYS THOSE WOULD NOT
HAVE BEEN BUILT WITHOUT
THE HELP OF THE CHURCH.
THE MAIN THING OF THIS
MONASTERY IS TO TAKE CARE
OF THE LOWER AREA.
Chris: ARCHEOLOGISTS
ALSO UNCOVERED AN EVEN
OLDER STRUCTURE NEARBY, A
2,700-YEAR-OLD FARM HOUSE.
THIS AREA, FROM THE
BEGINNING, WAS USED FOR
FARMING AND FOR
AGRICULTURE.
Chris: SOMETIMES
ARCHEOLOGISTS MUST M MOVE
THE ANTIQUITIES, AND THEY
OFTEN REBURY THEM, BUT
THESE ARE SLATED TO BECOME
PART OF A PARK.
I CAN TELL YOU THAT
THIS SITE, WE'RE NOT GOING
TO DESTROY IT.
WE WILL PLAN TO KEEP IT
AND LEAVE IT LIKE A GREEN
AREA.
Chris: CHRIS
MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,
JERUSALEM.
Efrem: GLAD TO KNOW
IT WILL BE RESERVED.
STAY WITH US.
