Yesterday we went to Caesarea Philippi and Har Megiddo, and both were great. We stayed in a Kibbutz (Kibbutz Levi close to Tiberias).
Today we went to Capernaum and the areas around Lower Galilee. Then we went and toured the Golan Heights, and were within less than a km of Syria. And amazingly, we’re still alive.
I have to say that all of this has completely illuminated (and often, corrected) my understanding of the New (and Old) Testament stories. I truly think that visiting the Holy Land should be a standard part of seminary curriculum.
Sad that we only have one more day of the standard tour. Our guides and driver have been just wonderful!
