wow, the adventures that I have been able to embark on in Israel. The last field study that we were on was to Jordan. This was an amazing place, both beautiful and historical. First of all, Jordan had very few Biblical sites, but many ruins of Ancient Greco-Roman cities. We went to places like Pella, and Gedara, Gerash...all very beautiful places, and I learned much there. My Highlight however was Petra. Petra being the cities which is carved from the faces of cliffs, the most famous being from Indiana Jones the last crusade. Needless to say, Jordan was amazing. Now I find myself with 2 weeks left fighting to enjoy every ounce of this trip. As I write this I am lucky enough to be staying at the Sea of Galilee, one more quick blast through the country. My friend Tom and I have been spending the day touring the country with a rental car, and filming a video for Tom's ministry which is scripture (memorized) spoken across the Holy Land. So we have been filming Tom as he quotes scripture, whole chapters and books, it's incredible, and traveling to amazing places. We continue tomorrow before returning to Jerusalem, and the last week of class. Anyways, This is what I have been doing for about a week now, and I promise to write about my adventures through the next week, take care
