Touring The Holy Land During One Of The Holiest Times Of The Year For Christians

in #travel6 years ago

Mosaic Of The Last Supper Of Jesus 

The Last Supper Of Jesus was a Passover meal that Jesus held in the upper room of a building in Jerusalem. This was an intimate meal with Jesus and his disciples in attendance. 

 "Crown of Thorns" Branches of the Acacia Tree 

It is said that Jesus wore a "Crown of Thorns" as he carried His cross up the hill. Look at the wicked thorns. They are several times larger than a rose thorn and much sharper. They are so sharp, that needles were often made from these thorns.

Jesus Is Not Here....."He Has Risen"

Jerusalem is an amazing city. There is not a better time for Christian Pilgrims to tour the Old City than Holy Week. Perhaps we will see you there, next year in Jerusalem.

good job, thanks for sharing. Kryptonia ID @ofili2

Great post. Thanks for sharing.

me pone a pensar: ¿ de verdad estas tradiciones me daran la vida eterna? creo que es mas importante recordar la muerte de Jesus como el sacrificio propio de la redencion y su resureccion como la seguridad de que todas las promesas de Dios se haran realidad, creo que pesa mas tener fe en eso que repetir tradiciones.
