The Shepherd’s Fields

December 15, 2023 by Jack Taylor 1 Comment

The Shepherds Fields

You wouldn’t know it now, but a year ago, as we stood in the West Bank among the fields of Bethlehem, it felt like there could be peace on earth and good will to men. The sounds around us didn’t include the thundering of tanks and the booming of artillery. It didn’t include the shuffling of soldiers or the panic of civilians fearful for their lives. It didn’t include the … [Read more...] about The Shepherd’s Fields

Jericho

Jericho

On a trip to the holy land, Jericho is another stop along the way. It sits at 250 m below sea level. At first, it doesn’t seem much to look at.

The site’s … [Read more...] about The mountain fortress – Masada

The good news the tomb of Jesus is empty

Holy Land: The Empty Tomb

The good news is that it’s still empty. Not only on resurrection morning but all year long. Huddled outside the Old City walls near the Damascus Gate at the site of a bus station, by a rocky structure faintly once resembling a skull, sits a garden tomb which some protestants have pegged as the site of the burial and resurrection of Jesus. The garden tomb is said to have been … [Read more...] about The good news the tomb of Jesus is empty
