Today was another great day! Each day when we get back and reflect, we say, "Now today was the best day yet." So today was another best day. We started off with being in a synagogue in Abram's area where we had the whole blood covenant teaching. It was really something to think about that when it was Abram's turn to step in that blood, God, knowing full well that Abram couldn't be perfect, said, "I will take your place. If you fail, you can kill me." He knew that we would mess up. So right there he sentenced Jesus to die. It was a very touching moment. A lot of these places we visit, are ruins that archeologists are still uncovering, and they can tell by the stones, or lots of different ways, whose era and time frame it belonged to. So some are completely uncovered, some are restored & alot of them are still undiscovered. There is great respect for these places & we can touch & see things close up. We see virtually no one all day, until we get to the motels. We are in the deep desert mountains at times hiking for hours in 115 degree sun! Studying in this setting is so powerful.
I'll finish the story of today after dinner. it gets very interesting!
