On the Way Into Bethlehem...



On our way into Bethlehem today, a good friend of mine, Dr. Jack Gabig, who has lived in to Holy Land for some time, shared with us that these hills in Bethlehem were, in the time of Jesus' birth, the place where paschal lambs were raised by shepherds. It is interesting that as Mary and Joseph made their way to the City of Kings, they where shepherding and raising the True Paschal Lamb. Also that the shepherds who raised the paschal lambs would be the first to behold the fulfillment of their labors. Very cool!
