Shalom! I am a Licensed Tour Guide in Israel since 2017. Welcome to my page.

I update it regularly sharing pictures and words about sites all over Israel which I guide.

I visited Caesarea Maritima, a site only about an hour north of Tel Aviv with a friend. As it had recently rained I knew the mosaic floors would look fresh and clean.

Israel 101

In 1208 BCE Pharaoh Merneptah put up this stone tablet. He boasted of cities and lands he pillaged mentioning how “Israel is laid waste its seed is no more”. The hieroglyphic symbol for Israel was of a settled People. If the Bible’s mentioning of Israel can be considered as a primary source, this Egyptian text becomes a secondary source. Scientifically we can now state that at a minimum there was a settled people in this Land who called themselves Israel at least since the 13th century BCE.

This week Jews around the world are celebrating the holiday of Hannukah. It marks the establishment of an independent Jewish country in the Land of Israel in the 2nd century BCE. Scholars refer to this time as the Second Commmonwealth, the first being the Biblical Kingdom. Since 1948 we have been living in the Third Commonwealth.

In 1947 the UN voted in favor of Resolution 181 offering both Jews and Arabs independent countries based on this map. The Jews accepted it and declared Israel. The Arabs rejected the vote and never declared a free Palestine.
