I am staying at the Ibex campus today near Jerusalem. It’s our day off so we are enjoying relaxing a little bit. The internet is really good so I thought I would upload some photos of us having a little fun. It’s not all hard work and study…: ) Enjoy.
Here are the captions from top to bottom going left to right.
1. Abraham’s Grave in Hebron. This is also the only Herodian structure that is still completely in tact. We think this is probably similiar to what Herod’s Temple would have looked like.
2. I’m everywhere over here! Actually, this is the home of Ben Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister.
3. This is a Roman Gladiator Stadium.
4. Reenactment of David and Goliath in the valley of Elah.
5. Reenactment of Samson killing the Philistines with the jawbone of a donkey in the valley of Sorek.
6. Dr. Ralson and I at Sea level on our way down to Jericho.
7. My roommate Bill getting his first ride on a camel.
8. Walking around Jericho.
9. Standing on the Mount of Olives overlooking Jerusalem.
10. 2000 Orthodox Jews running through the Muslim area of town on their way to the cemetery on the Mount of Olives. It was for a funeral of a very famous rabbi.
