Our Jerusalem Center is on a hill that runs parallel to the Mount of Olives. The center overlooks the entire city. So from my view I see these walls everyday. These walls surround the Old City. At each of the 8 gates there are tons and tons of pick-pocketers. I literally have just sat there and watched these children brush up against people and test their marks to see who is their best candidate. Fascinating profession. They are really good at what they do.
So this picture is just to give you an orient of how big those limestone walls are that we pass through everyday. These walls lead to such historical sites. They lead to the Garden Tomb. The church of the Holy Sepulcher. The Pools of Bethesda. Everything.
