“Go and march to Mount Taʹbor, and take 10,000 men of Naphʹta·li and Zebʹu·lun with you.I will bring to you Sisʹe·ra, the chief of Jaʹbin’s army, along with his war chariots and his troops to the stream of Kiʹshon, and I will give him into your hand.’””
The view from Tabor! The word “tabor” is closely related to the word for bellybutton… it looks like an “outie” 🤣. It’s hard to tell in these pictures from the top of Tabor but it is extremely steep. Deborah and Barak would have been fine to stay up here with the 10,000 men for a long time, there is even water and in times past waiting out your enemy on Tabor had proven to be an effective strategy. But now, with no weapons, they were instructed to charge Sisera and his fearsome army. What’s the lesson for us? Join our tours to find out!

In our WT study this week we learn the significance of one of the features of the Sabbath: a time set aside for meaningful worship at the Synagogue. What else can we learn from a visit to places of worship (ancient and modern) in Israel? First three pictures are of a replica synagogue in ancient Nazareth. Pic 4 is the synagogue in Capernaum. Pic 6 is another first century synagogue in Gamla (featured in the Study Bible). Pic 7 is on Temple Mount where the Temple once stood. Pic 8 is modern center for distributing spiritual food in Israel at Bethel. Come see these sites with us! Reservations for 2021 now open. mizpahtours.com @ Nazareth, Israel

Beth-Shean aka Scythopolis. This city dates back to before Abraham came through here. It has an amazing history that includes (in addition to Abraham having come through here) being the northern most outpost of the Egyptian empire at one point. It was the Canaanite city where Saul and Jonathan’s bodies were put on display after their death at nearby Mount Gilboa. The road is one of the main routes between the Sea of Galilee and Jerusalem. Later it became Scythopolis, one of the Decapolis - centers of Greek culture in Bible Times, the only one on the west side of the Jordan. And so much more history we can’t possibly list it all here. Came see it with us on our tour to discover Bible lands together. One of our favorite things about visiting places in Israel is that you can climb all over them. You don’t have to experience it from a distance, you can touch and feel and.... while we don’t recommend it.. taste the sites. 🤣 @ Beit Shean
