Itinerary
Day 1: Departure to Israel
Today you embark on your Journey to the Holy Land. Prepare
yourself for a life-changing experience.
Day 2: Arrive in Israel – Jaffa, Caesarea
Arrive in Israel and meet your Israeli guide. Today we visit the city
of Joppa also known as Jaffa. This was the home to one of the
oldest sea ports in the world. Many significant events took place
at Joppa. The cedars of Lebanon passed through the port here
on their way to the temple in Jerusalem; Jonah the reluctant
prophet, set sail from Joppa before being swallowed by the great
fish; and Peter raised Tabitha(Dorcas) from the dead in this city.
We travel along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea to Caesarea,
where Gentiles first heard the Good News from Peter and were
baptized. We’ll see the Roman Amphitheatre, hippodrome, a film
on history and the remains of this famous port city, and
aqueduct. We travel northward to our hotel for one night in the
coastal area of Hadera. This afternoon we check into the Hotel.
Before dinner we will enjoy a time of evening prayer, and a good
night’s rest.
Day 3: Mount Carmel, Megiddo, Nazareth, Town of Magdala
After Breakfast, we journey onto Mt. Carmel, where Elijah
challenged King Ahab and the prophets of Baal. Next we travel
through the Jezreel Valley to Megiddo, the Armageddon
Battlefield, where archaeologists have unearthed 20 levels of
civilization. We drive through the area of Cana and Nazareth, the
boyhood home of Jesus, where we visit the Nazareth Village – a
wonderful recreation of Biblical times with costumed guides. We
visit the Town of Magdala. The home of Mary Magdalene was a
prosperous fishing village at the time Jesus was active in this
region. It was fortified and severely damaged during the great
revolt against the Romans. The archaeologists uncovered the
remains of the village dating from the time of Jesus. We will have
dinner and overnight lodging in the Tiberias area on the Sea of
Galilee.
Day 4: Sea of Galilee, Capernaum, Caesarea Philippi, Mount
of Beatitudes
Following breakfast, we visit the ancient Fisherman’s Boat at an
operating Kibbutz, we enjoy a relaxing cruise on the Sea of
Galilee. A brief scripture reading and devotional on board brings
to life the experiences of Jesus and the fishermen disciples. Our
morning travels take us to two valuable northern sites. Dan is
where the children of Israel fell to the depths of pagan worship
and Caesarea Philippi, the site of Peter’s Confession. In
Capernaum we will visit the ruins of an ancient synagogue and
Peter’s home. Then we travel on to the site of the possible
multiplication of loaves and fishes in Bethsaida and the Mount of
the Beatitudes overlooking the Sea.
Day 5: Jordan River Baptism, Beit Shean & Dead Sea
We begin our day with an opportunity to be baptized at the
Jordan River Baptismal site. Next we travel southward to
Beit-Shean/Scythopolis, the most magnificent archeological site
in Israel, located at the strategic juncture of the Jezreel and
Jordan valleys. Like Jericho, it has been almost continuously
occupied throughout history. After defeating Saul and his sons on
Mt. Gilboa, the Philistines hanged their bodies on the walls of
Beit-Shean. During the time of Jesus, Scythopolis was one of the
chief cities of the Decapolis – a league of ten cities sharing Greek
culture and government. Following the fertile Jordan Valley
southward, your guide will point out the agricultural restoration of
the “Land of Milk and Honey” and Israel’s intricate irrigation
development. We pass ancient Jericho, view from a distance this
city famed as the oldest in the world, before coming to the Jordan
River (Qasr El Yehud) the Israeli side of Bethany Beyond the
Jordan, the place where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist,
where Elijah and Elisha crossed the Jordan as well as the area
where the children of Israel led by Joshua entered the Promised
land. Our lodging for the evening is at the Dead Sea – the lowest
place on earth. Spend time in the special spa and enjoy a dip in
the Dead Sea for a relaxing float before dinner.
Day 6: Masada, Ein Gedi, Dead Sea Scrolls, Bethlehem
Our day begins with a cable car ride to the mountain top fortress
of Masada. Here our guide will treat us to the history of the
famous zealot stand. Afterwards we proceed to Ein Gedi, “Spring
of the Goat,” an oasis on the western shore of the Dead Sea.
Because of its warm climate and abundant supply of water, the
site developed a reputation for its fragrant plants and date palm
groves. This is where King David hid from Saul, and where God
defeated the enemies of the Israelites by praise and worship led
by King Jehoshaphat. Next, we visit Qumran Caves where the
Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered. We visit the Centre of the
desert, an observation site of St. George’s Monastery in Wadi Qelt
Judean desert. Today we also focus on surrounding the birth of
Christ with a visit to Bethlehem. Our lodging for the next four
nights will be in Jerusalem.
Day 7: Around Jerusalem, Bible Times, Genesis Land
On our way into the city we will visit the Wailing Wall and then the
fascinating Rabbinical Tunnels leading us through the Second
Temple era. The tunnel and exhibit give a clear understanding of
the amazing construction of the Temple Mount, giant stones,
water supply and Roman street where our Lord was led to
judgment. Before exiting the tunnel we see the immense
cornerstone rejected by the builders. We move on to the
Judgment Hall of Pilate and hear of those who conspired against
Jesus and are reminded of His brutal beating and humiliation.
From here we will also be able to see the Pool of Bethesda,
Stephen’s Gate and St. Ann’s Church. This afternoon we visit the
Southern Wall Excavations. This southern side of The Temple
was the main entrance for the common folk, whereas the Priests
and Levites had their own entrance from the higher eastern side.
Parts of the giant stairs, which led to the Temple Mount from the
courtyard have been unearthed along with the purification pools.
From here Jesus entered the Temple Mount and drove out the
vendors and money exchangers who were exploiting the people.
It is also likely that this is the place that Peter stood and preached
and where thousands were saved and baptized on the Day of
Pentecost. This afternoon we will visit Genesis Land, where we
enjoy a trip back in time: a reliving of life in the time of the
Patriarchs, complete with costume, dramatic presentation, and
authentic food.
Day 8: Jesus Steps, Way of Suffering, Garden of Gethsemane
Today we walk where Jesus walked; beginning the day with a
panoramic view of the city, Mount Moriah and the Dome of the
Rock from atop the Mount of Olives and then the Garden of
Gethsemane. How many have wished to be whisked back in time
to get a glimpse of our Lord or hear His voice if only for a
moment? To walk between the ancient olive trees, read the
scriptures of Jesus’ prayer and take time for personal reflection is
important here. Passing by the Protestant Cemetery, we visit the
“Upper Room” just outside the Zion Gate where the disciple whom
Jesus loved laid his head on His breast and where later Thomas
cried, “my Lord & my God.” St. Peter in Gallicantu is situated on the
spot where, according to tradition, Jesus was jailed after his
arrest by the Romans. The House of Caiaphas is where Jesus
was beaten and spat upon. See a pit where he may have been
held for the evening and the ancient hillside steps he walked as he
was taken to be condemned. While walking along the Via
Dolorosa, we are reminded of His way of suffering along with a
visit to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. Our guide will explain
the differing opinions on the route that Christ was led and the
actual place of crucifixion and burial is a very interesting study.
This evening we enjoy a special lecture by a local believer prior to
dinner, giving us a perspective of Messianic life in Israel.
Day 9: Israel Museum, Yad Vashem, Garden Tomb
An interesting and educational time awaits us today at the Israeli
Museum. Walk through collections of century’s old Israeli
artifacts including the Dead Sea Scrolls, and then a guided walk
through an accurately detailed model of Biblical Jerusalem. This
model will help put into perspective all that you have seen over
the previous days touring. We will visit Yad Vashem, the
Holocaust Museum, for a needed reminder of what the Jews
have suffered as a people. The climax of the day is the area of
Golgotha (place of the skull) and the Garden Tomb, where we
celebrate the resurrection with communion and a time of praise.
