Garden of Gethsemane: These olive trees in the garden of Gethsemane date back 2300 years and grafted in branches will produce fruit 30+ years faster than planting new seedlings. Paul’s metaphor in Romans 11 came vividly to mind.

“If the root of the tree (Abraham) is holy, so also are the branches (his descendants), and if some of the branches were broken off, and you a wild olive shoot were grafted in their place, you have become a partaker with them of the root, which is the source of the rich sustenance of the olive tree. Remember that you owe your life to the root for the root does now owe it’s life to you.”

Scripture Pictures of the Holy Land

Scripture pictures is an illustrated tour of Israel that consists of two parts. The first two/thirds is a tour of the sites normally seen as pilgrims travel in Israel. It contains over 220 color photographs chosen from over six thousand taken in Dr. Hall's tours to the Holy Land. When reading the scripture we get a mental picture of the story portrayed. The image of people or places is never the way we envisioned once we actually see them. I had that experience when I saw and retraced first hand the steps of Jesus in the land. In Scripture Pictures you see the land as it was. In addition it provides the social, economic, and political pictures with the scriptural life trail of Jesus. The compiling of all these pictures gives the reader a much more comprehensive "three dimensional" picture of the circumstances and events that took place during the Biblical times. Taking over 10 years to complete Scripture Pictures of the Holy Land will enlarge ones understanding of the life and times of Jesus the Messiah.
