The mountain fortress – Masada

May 5, 2023 by Jack Taylor Leave a Comment

Any pilgrimage to Israel should include a cable car ride, or a walk, up to the palatial ruins of Herod the Great at Masada. The Judean King captured this desert outpost in 43 BC from the Hasmonean rulers who had first developed it. According to the historian, Josephus, Masada was the last stand for 960 Sicarii (Jewish extremist rebels) opposing the Romans in 73 AD.

The garden tomb is said to have been … [Read more...] about The good news the tomb of Jesus is empty

Capernaum – the home of Jesus

Stepping into the very places, streets and vicinities where Scripture captures the specifics of God walking and talking with men, continues to be a transformational experience for many. But what is there about the places Jesus chose for his home and ministry? For example, why Capernaum (Nahum’s village)? Strolling through the exposed foundations of basalt stone gives little … [Read more...] about Capernaum – the home of Jesus
