Things are active fast and furious here. We have study toured En Gedi (twice), Arad, Wadi Zohar, Masada, Avdat, En Avdat, Qumran, Bet She'an, and Bethsaida. That's two days.
It is gripping to begin to listen for how G-d wants to lead this tour. Some of the places I have been many times have new meanings while others are refreshed and so clear.
Wadi Arugot in En Gedi is mind-boggling. So beautiful. So powerful. Arad has an entirely new faith lesson. Bethsaida may as well.
While the study is intense the company is prodigious as well. Tim is a scholar (in fact he just helped me spell scholar) and a great friend. We laugh often and have a similar passion for G-d's summary. Our guide Boaz has been excellent as always and in this smaller company has opened up at length about present day Israel. It has been facinating and challenging.
Tomorrow is Arbel and the Official Triangle, Tiberius, and probably some stuff we have never seen. Boaz likes to suprise us.
Miss everyone. Praying that church was expert. I know Meg was Awesome.
Shema and Shalom
