Tuesday in Jerusalem

Our first full day in Jerusalem has been overwhelming, with several very moving experiences.  We began with a visit to the Mount of Olives (Lu. 19:41-44, Matt. 24, Zech. 14) and the Garden of Gethsemane (Mt. 26:47-56), then finished the morning at the Israel Museum where the Dead Sea Scrolls are on display.  We spent the afternoon at Yad Vashem which is the Holocaust Museum.
