Overnight: Tel Aviv Sunday, March 6 Our amazing journey in God’s Land starts with a visit to Independence Hall, where we will see fulfilled prophecies and hear a recording of David Ben Gurion proclaiming Israel’s independence. Our next stop will be the old city of Jaffa for the sites and a study of the Scriptures. Our last stop will be at the Beit Lid junction, where 22 people (21 of them IDF soldiers) were killed by a suicide bomber in 1995. We will hear a personal account from Moran Rosenblit and then continue to our hotel in the city of Haifa. Overnight: Haifa Monday, March 7 We start our day with a visit to Atlit, a temporary holding facility for thousands of “illegal” Jewish immigrants from 1939 – 1948. Afterward, we will continue our day with a visit to Caesarea Maritima, the ancient capital of Roman Judea, where we will see and learn about the many important biblical events that took place there. We then will drive up the Carmel Mountain to visit the Muhraka, where Elijah defeated the prophets of Baal, to have an in-depth Bible study. Our day will end at the Druze village of Daliat El Carmel, where we will meet a local family whose son was killed by a suicide bomber. We will join them for a traditional Druze dinner in their home. Overnight: Haifa Tuesday, March 8 Our journey today takes us to the northwest part of Israel. Our first stop will be at the site of the famous Acre prison break in pre-1948 Israel. We’ll continue on to visit such beautiful sites as the Keshet Cave and Rosh Hanikrah. Our day will end with a visit to the city of Nahariya. Overnight: Haifa Wednesday, March 9 Today, we make our way to Zippori, where we will see the remains of the Jewish capital of Galilee 2000 years ago. It’s also where Rabbi Yehuda Hanasi wrote the six books of the Jewish Mishnah, which still impacts Jewish life today. After seeing some of the most beautiful mosaic floors ever discovered in Israel, we will continue on to visit Kibbutz Ginigar, where we will enjoy the beautifully landscaped gardens and hear stories about what life was and is like on a kibbutz. Next up will be Gideon’s Spring, where Gideon made his famous soldier selection; and finally, we will visit Mt. Gilboa, where we will see and learn about King Saul’s final battle. Overnight: Sea of Galilee Thursday, March 10 Today’s visit begins with Agamon Hachula, a wonderful view of the migratory birds that visit Israel. Then it’s on to Oz 77, a small hill overlooking the border with Syria, where a brave tank battalion halted a Syrian attack of a thousand tanks during the 1973 Yom Kippur War. From there we’ll visit the site of the ancient city of Caesarea Philippi. Our next stop takes us to the biblical city of Dan, where we will walk, Bible in hand, below the impres- sive 4,000 year-old Canaanite walls bringing the ancient biblical stories to life. Our walk takes us from an ancient town into the Eden-like haven of the Dan Nature Reserve, where we will hike along and across running streams. Our day ends at Tel Chai, which tells the story of the beginnings of modern Israel. Overnight: Sea of Galilee Friday, March 11 We start our day by visiting Magdala, the home of Mary Magdalene and then it’s off to Bethsaida National Park, where we will study some of our Messiah’s teachings. Our next few stops will be to Capernaum, where our Mes- siah started His ministry, and to Nof Ginossar, where we’ll take a leisurely boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. After freshening up at our hotel, we will drive to a wonderful viewpoint of the city of Nazareth and the Jezreel Valley and then finish our day with a visit to the residential community of Shimshit for a “one-on-one” hospitality visit with families in their homes for Shabbat dinner. Overnight: Sea of Galilee Saturday, March 12 We end our stay in the Galilee with Korsi, where Yeshua healed two demonized men. We’ll also take a wonderful hike in Gamla, the Masada of the south where biblical history will come alive before our very eyes. Then it’s on to an amazing viewpoint over the Sea of Galilee with the beautiful scenery of the valley. Finally, we will spend some relaxing time at Hamat Gader, the hot springs of the ancient city of Gadera. Overnight: Sea of Galilee Sunday, March 13 Today our journey takes us south to the Dead Sea. On our way we will stop at some important biblical locations including a special place to put our feet into the Jordan River; enjoy the sites of ancient, biblical and modern Jericho; and, refresh ourselves in the Scriptures while viewing the beautiful scenery of David’s Canyon at Ein Gedi. Overnight: Near the Dead Sea Monday, March 14 A cable car ride will take us to Masada, listed as a World Heritage site by UNESCO (those who wish may hike up the rugged “Snake Path”). We’ll take a “living history” tour of King Herod’s palace-fortress and hear the dramatic story of the Jewish Zealots in their rebellion against the Romans, the backdrop of today’s “never again” Israeli mentality. We will then return to our hotel for a relaxing afternoon at our Dead Sea hotel. Overnight: Near the Dead Sea Tuesday, March 15 Today we drive to God’s city – Jerusalem! On our way north, we will stop at Tel Arad to see the remains of a fortress built by King Solomon to protect Israel’s southern trade routes. We will continue on to visit the ancient Synagogue of Susia; after which, we will stop at the city of Hebron to visit the Tomb of the Patriarchs. Then it’s onward to Jerusalem, the capital of the Jewish people and the State of Israel. We’ll get a bird’s-eye view of Jerusalem from the Armon Hanatziv Overlook. Overnight: Jerusalem Wednesday, March 16 We start this portion of our trip by visiting Shiloh, the Tanakh location for the Tabernacle, and then continue to Mt. Gerizim and Sebastia to learn about the Samaritan people. Overnight: Jerusalem Thursday, March 17 We will begin this day with a visit to the City of David and the Davidson Center. After which, we’ll visit Herodion, the mountain on top of a mountain that Herod built as a palace fortress just outside Jerusalem called “one of the most fascinating antiquities sites in Israel.” Here we’ll learn about the events that still affect Jewish believers in Messiah today. Overnight: Jerusalem Friday, March 18 Our experience today will take us to visit two very special places: the Herzl Museum and the Yad Vashem Holocaust museum. Afterwards, we’ll go to the famous Jerusalem Marketplace (“The Shuk”) to experience present day Jerusalem life. We will end our day with a visit to the Western Wall to welcome in the Shabbat. Overnight: Jerusalem Saturday, March 19 We begin our final day in Israel with a beautiful lookout over the Golden City from the Mt. of Olives and then follow in the path of our Messiah’s footsteps down to Gethsemane. After a time of worship and quiet reflection, we will continue and visit the Pool of Bethesda. We’ll finish our experience in Israel with a special time at the Garden Tomb, a peaceful spot where we can remember the Messiah’s crucifixion, burial and resurrection.

  • Towards a Middle East at Peace: Hidden Issues in Arab–Israeli Hydropolitics
    Water Resources Development, Vol. 20, No. 2, 193–204, June 2004 Towards a Middle East at Peace: Hidden Issues in Arab–Israeli Hydropolitics ARNON MEDZINI* & AARON T. WOLF** *Department of Geography, Oranim School of Education, Tivon, Israel **Department of Geosciences, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR, USA ABSTRACT When peace negotiations do one day resume between Israelis and Arabs, shared water resources will again take centre stage, acting both as an irritant between the parties, and as a tremendous inducement to reach agreement. The ‘hidden’ hydropo- litical issues that will need to be resolved between Israel, Lebanon and Syria in the course of eventual boundary talks are considered. Two of these issues, the village of Ghajar and its relation to the Wazani Springs, and the possibility of groundwater flow from the Litani to the Jordan headwaters, change the fundamental understanding of the relation- ship between hydrologic and political claims, and could threaten the entire approach to water negotiations both between Israel and Syria and between Israel and Lebanon. Fortunately, other agreements within the basin can inform the path solutions here might take. The most critical step towards conflict resolution is separating the concepts of territorial sovereignty from water security. This can be done most effectively by offering joint management, monitoring and enforcement strategies, as well as encouraging greater transparency in water data across boundaries. Introduction Despite the current deadly, and apparently intractable, conflict between Israelis and Arabs, history suggests that peace negotiations will one day resume. When they do, shared water resources will again take centre stage, acting both as an irritant between the parties, and as a tremendous inducement to reach agree- ment.

    Written Testimony of Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) National President Morton A. Klein1 Hearing on: A NEW HORIZON IN U.S.-ISRAEL RELATIONS: FROM AN AMERICAN EMBASSY IN JERUSALEM TO POTENTIAL RECOGNITION OF ISRAELI SOVEREIGNTY OVER THE GOLAN HEIGHTS Before the House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on National Security Tuesday July 17, 2018, 10:00 a.m. Rayburn House Office Building, Room 2154 Chairman Ron DeSantis (R-FL) Ranking Member Stephen Lynch (D-MA) Introduction & Summary Chairman DeSantis, Vice Chairman Russell, Ranking Member Lynch, and Members of the Committee: Thank you for holding this hearing to discuss the potential for American recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, in furtherance of U.S. national security interests. Israeli sovereignty over the western two-thirds of the Golan Heights is a key bulwark against radical regimes and affiliates that threaten the security and stability of the United States, Israel, the entire Middle East region, and beyond. The Golan Heights consists of strategically-located high ground, that provides Israel with an irreplaceable ability to monitor and take counter-measures against growing threats at and near the Syrian-Israel border. These growing threats include the extremely dangerous hegemonic expansion of the Iranian-Syrian-North Korean axis; and the presence in Syria, close to the Israeli border, of: Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Quds forces; thousands of Iranian-armed Hezbollah fighters; Palestinian Islamic Jihad (another Iranian proxy); Syrian forces; and radical Sunni Islamist groups including the al Nusra Levantine Conquest Front (an incarnation of al Qaeda) and ISIS. The Iranian regime is attempting to build an 800-mile land bridge to the Mediterranean, running through Iraq and Syria.

Competing Narratives: How Israel and Palestine Interpret Their Own Histories Thesis Jake Kubiak PRIMARY QUESTION How do Israelis and Palestinians interpret their own histories as evidence that they have claim over Israeli held territory? ABSTRACT The Israeli-Palestinian War over Israeli-held territories has been a major controversy for many years. The modern conflict has been raging on since 1948. This conflict has caused the displacement of 1.4 million Palestinians, uprooting them from what they believe to be their ancestral home. Along with this displacement, the conflict has caused infrastructural collapse and the rise of terrorist organizations within Israel and Palestinian territories. Both groups have their own evidence in claiming the Israeli-held territory, including archaeological history and ancient texts to argue that they are the rightful owners of this land.

  • A New Aramaic Dedicatory Inscription from Israel
    A New Aramaic Dedicatory Inscription from Israel Ada Yardeni and Jonathan J. Price The Aramaic inscription published here is in the private collection of Dr. David Jeselsohn in Jerusalem. The authors wish to thank Dr. Jeselsohn for the opportunity to examine the stone and for permission to publish it.* The stone is sandstone of uneven thickness and widens gradually towards the bottom. The left and right sides of the stone are broken but the text is fully preserved on those margins. The bottom has been worked and straightened, and the bottom margin of the text is preserved. The top of the stone also appears to have been straightened, although the content of the text indicates that there was at least one more line of text preceding the first line of text preserved on the present stone (see below); there are no traces of that first line on the present stone, nor would there have been enough room to fit a full line of text between the present first line and the straightened top edge; thus the present stone could have been reworked later for secondary use, or, less likely, the beginning of the inscription could have been contained on another stone. The back of the stone is rough, with traces of what appears to be white plaster. The five narrowly spaced lines of square Hebrew letters are homogeneously engraved, the thickness of the lines being about 0.5 cm. The letters are highlighted with red paint. The text is aligned to the right. In lines 2, 3 and possibly 4, there are sépara- tions between words.
