IN THE FOOTHILLS OF JERUSALEM – BUS TOUR OF PROPHETS AND HEROES


29.10.2021

Every nation has its own heroes, and the Jewish people are no exception. Stories about Samson, David and others from Tanach were passed down from generation to generation of the Jewish people. Our guide Dima Esterkin took our Tel Aviv and Gush Dan group on a tour of Prophets and heroes of Jerusalem, beginning in the Beit Shemesh area, where many of the famous stories of strongman Samson and King David took place, also according to archeologists. We visited the excavated remaining parts of the settlements, looked around the fortress walls, and walked along the streets of the city of the times of David. We also visited the assumed gravesite of Samson and Dima immersed us in the atmosphere of those years.

“It was such an interesting excursion that I'm not sorry I woke up so early on a Friday! I’ve visited sites in Israel before this excursion, but didnt know that these are such famous places from the Tanach."
