Obviously 🤓but would do nothing in the way of proving the body is that of Jesus Christ. Or would it? I'm not smart so i need spoon fed. 📖
The DNA testing alone only establishes the relationships of the individuals buried in the tomb.
The DNA testing along with the statistical probability of the names and relationships of the individuals buried in the tomb coinciding with those of the biblical Jesus and his family is a strong inductive argument that this is the familial tomb of Jesus.

thats what i was thinking, but considering that the biblical names of Jesus' family were of the most common names of the time, it then comes down merely to probability?

Frequency of Names:[list][*]Jesus, Son of Joseph: 1/190
[*]Mariamne: 1/160
[*]Matia: 1/40
[*]Maria: 1/4[/list]Based on these results, it would appear that the names in and of themselves were not uncommon at the time. However, the chances of them being found together are an extremely remote 1 in 97,280,000.

So now you have to ask: Would "God" chose the most common names? Surely he would not. But this situation doesn't mean "he" did. Botton line...aboandon "god" and Jesus, and Mohammad while you're at it...
None of them are worth your admiration...much less your understanding.
Jesus's Bones Discovered?
I think that a thread for this exists but I cannot locate it.
Anyhoo, these facts debunk the lie that Jesus' bones have been discovered in Jerusalem.
