The Jordan River is where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. Immediately following His baptism, heaven was opened and the Spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) was seen descending like a dove and lighting upon Him (Jesus.) A voice was, also, heard from heaven saying, "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased."

JERICHO

Jericho was the town Jesus was leaving on His way to Jerusalem and the Cross when a blind man by the name of Bartimaeus began shouting, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" He wanted Jesus to heal his blindness. Jesus said to him, "Go, your faith has healed you" and immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.

Jerusalem is the city into which Jesus rode on the back of a young donkey while crowds went before Him placing their cloaks and palm branches upon the road shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! 'Hosanna in the highest!" Jerusalem was the center of Jewish religious worship, the Temple being there.

POOL OF SILOAM

The Pool of Siloam, which is located in Jerusalem, is where Jesus told a man born blind to wash after He had anointed his eyes with mud that he might see. The Bible tells us, " So the man went and washed and came home seeing."

MOUNT ZION

Mount Zion is the easternmost hill lying in the old city of Jerusalem.

JERUSALEM TEMPLE

Jesus taught and healed many in the temple area.  It was here that He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves saying to them, "It is written, 'My house will be called a house of prayer but you are making it a den of robbers.'"  It was also here that the curtain separating the people from the holy of holies was torn in two by God from top to bottom at the moment of Christ Jesus' death on the cross of Calvary.  The Temple was destroyed by the Romans in 70AD. It has never been rebuilt.
