Day 10

Our last full day in Israel...
THURSDAY JUNE 29
We woke up and headed to the ancient boat museum. Two brothers found this boat while walking the shore line. After getting archeologists involved they discovered that this boat was a first century fishing boat. One that Jesus deciples would have used.
Then we went to the Mount of Beatitudes where we had a time of worship.
We went to Dan where we hiked up to a high place where Jereoboam led the people astray from the worship of Yehweh. We also got to see the city gate of Laish. Where Abraham would have walked by, and where the tribe of Dan settled.
We also got to see the inside of a city gate where the people would have done their business transactions. There was also an alter with Baal and Asthrea stones on it.

After this we went to the temple of Pan that was called the gates of Hades. There were multiple temples and ways the people worshiped Pan. This is the place Jesus was refrencing when he told Peter "on this rock I will build my church and the Gates of Hell shall not prevail"
Then we went to the Golan Heights which is a military outpost. We could look over the land and see Syria and actually heard bombs going off in Syria.
As we were travelling to our next spot our guide was telling us stories of miraculous victories that God gave the Israeli army.
At the next place was a Syrian bunker that Israel had captured. We could go down in the bunker and we could look out and see Lebanon. Then we prayed at the Northern alter and prayed for Rain for the land of Israel (they have been in a 7 year drought)
Tomorrow we are doing a few more sights and then headed home to the good ole' US of A.
