Holy Land

Program “Holy Land” – “12 Days – 11 Nights”
An angel of the Lord appears in dreams to Joseph, saying: Get up, take the child with you and to his mother and flees to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, because Herod is going to look for child to end Him. (Matthew 2, 13-14).
That trip that lasted more than three years was not a picturesque excursion, but they endured All the penalties of the road. During the day the heat was intense, producing thirst torture and mirage. And at night the cold was severe and they slept on a mat without a convenient coat. Two thousand years before, according to the great Covenant, Joseph the son of Jacob had been led by those places as a prisoner, sold by his brothers. Hundreds of years later Moses and Aaron would rise and lead his people went from Egypt to Sinai.
