Room of the last supper.
David’s Tomb.
Christ Church: the oldest Protestant church in the Middle East, and
takes the Middle Eastern cultural context into account when they evangelise.
The founders of this Anglican church were very humble and said they are the
branches of the Olive tree (Romans 11). They even avoid using crosses: Jews
hate to see the cross anywhere, even those on the ambulance, and many say that
if they see the cross when they’re sick, they’d get sicker. So the ambulances
in Israel has David’s star as its symbol. The Jews hate the symbol of the cross
so much they write it with an inverted T.
Tower of David museum: getting to know Israel’s history.
Hurva Synagogue: where the Orthodox Jews gather.
The Temple Institute: They’re so keen about the rebuilding of the third
temple that they even made a video showing how the third temple will look like.
Roman Street archaeological site: We looked at the Madaba Map (replica).
I took a photo with the a painting of the Roman street on the left hand side,
with the camel licking my hand (in 2015 I took the photo on the right hand side
with the donkey licking my hand).
This is the day when I realised that although it was hot when I visited
in Israel during September, it gets way hotter in July! And my skin became so
dry it started getting bumpy and peeling!
