Playing Hooky with the Girls

On Monday we took the girls out of school for a trip to Mt. Tabor. On the top we read the story of the prophet Deborah, which the Bible says took place there, and hiked a loop around the summit. Now the Church of the Transfiguration sits there, where (correct me if I am wrong) Jesus is said to have first revealed himself as the Son of God after a meeting with Moses and Elijah.








We also saw all kinds of caves.



It is just starting to bloom here.

  2. Shabbat Shalom! Bess and I are enjoying your website right now. She has a question, though: who lived in (or used) these caves? Maybe Raizi can let us know. :)
