Unearthing the Mysteries of Ancient Shechem - with Carl Gallups

Unearthing the Mysteries of Ancient Shechem - with Carl Gallups

Author: Sky High Podcast Network April 23, 2026 Duration: 16:53

Today, we speak with Carl Gallups about the new book Unearthing the Mysteries of Ancient Shechem: Revealing the Hidden Truths of Golgotha, Israel's Future, and the Biblical End of Days. This book is available from Defender publishing and is actually written by Zev Porat, a messianic rabbi in Israel who was not available for this interview. His close friend and ministry partner, pastor Carl Gallups, wrote the forward to this book and shares about the exciting information contained within. 

The ancient city of Shechem, located in the middle of the land of Israel, is mentioned more than seventy times from Genesis to Acts. Shechem is where God spoke to Abraham and told him that through his seed all the nations of the earth would be blessed—a promise of the coming Messiah.

In the same city, Joshua held the renowned conclave of commitment between Mount Gerizim (Mount of Blessing) and Mount Ebal (Mount of Curses). It was also in Shechem that Joshua famously declared, “Choose you this day whom you will serve.… But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!” (Joshua 24:15).

Messianic Rabbi Zev Porat, who was born and raised in Israel, uncovers mind-blowing biblical mysteries that have mostly been hidden from sight until now. Each one is linked to ancient Shechem as well as Golgotha. This rare journey of spiritual archeology unearths prophetic elements of God’s eternal plan of the ages, made abundantly relevant to the life of readers in their daily walk with Yeshua.
