Jericho

On our way to Jericho, we stopped at places where:

1) the story of the Good Samaritan took place and 

2) Satan tempted the Savior during his 40 day fast

It has been one of my favorite field trips, because unlike so many holy places touched and altered by man, you could see the places as Jesus, the priest, levite, and samaritan saw them.

Em and I made our mark

 I should have taken more pictures, but Jericho was a lovely place, not something I expected traveling into the West Bank

The oldest city known to man is Jericho, and this is the famous tower in Jericho dated back to 8,000 

BC

Lesson learned:

Q: Who is our neighbor? 

A: everyone

Each of us will go through our own road to Jericho, will we be the levite, priest, or the Samaritan when we see someone in need of help?
