Today we visited Joppa, south of TelAviv, and visited the oldest port of Israel. This is where Jonah boarded the ship before he was tossed overboard and swallowed by the whale!! We then visited the town of Cesarea, saw the ruins of King Herod's palace and theatre. Paul was imprisoned there for two years. We also visited the site of Mt. Carmel. This overlooks the Valley of Jezreel. Many old testament battles were fought here and the Battle of Armageddon will occur here in the future. We are now in our room in Tiberias overlooking the Sea of Galilee. It is truly beautiful and we know understand why Jesus loved this place so much. Enjoy our pictures!!
