Look at all these Christian historical landmarks that Israel currently controls. Garden of Gethsemane (Jerusalem, Mount of Olives) • Significance: Place where Jesus prayed before his arrest. • Current Control: East Jerusalem (under Israeli control), maintained by Christian clergy. Sea of Galilee & Capernaum (Northern Israel) • Significance: Many of Jesus’ miracles and teachings took place here. • Current Control: Under Israeli control; numerous churches and monasteries dot the area. Mount of Beatitudes (Near Sea of Galilee) • Significance: Site of the Sermon on the Mount. • Current Control: Under Israeli control, maintained by the Catholic Church. Perhaps christians should claim their historical landmarks. What do you think about that? Do you like that idea?
