Israel Trip 2018
This spring break I had the opportunity to go to Israel with one of my professors. We went to over 45 sites in just 10 days. The trip was amazing and I cant wait to go back some day!

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered liscenced tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this calling in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, glide over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and see the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.

אם לא הייתם על הר הבית... זו הזדמנות מדהימה לראות את המקום כולל ביקור בתןך המסגד ובקודש הקודשים היהודי
הר הבית שוכן בירושלים אשר בירת ישראל,הר המוריה הוא הר נמוך יחסית לסביבותיו, ופסגתו מגיעה ל-743 מטרים מעל פני הים.[2] הוא תחום ממזרח בנחל קדרון המפריד בינו לבין רכס הר הזיתים; בגיא הטירופיאון ממערב; ובנחל בית זיתא מצפון. צדו הדרומי תחום בשלוחת 'גבעת העופל', ממנה משתפלת גבעת עיר דוד.
בעקבות שינויים כבירים שחולל המלך הורדוס בהר הבית במאה הראשונה לפני הספירה (ראו להלן), נעלם כמעט כליל ההר הטופוגרפי המקורי, ונקבר תחת הרחבה הגדולה ומאחורי קירות התמך שבנה המלך. רחבה גדולה זו גולשת מעבר לגבולות ההר הטופוגרפי, ונשענת גם על הר ציון מדרום-מערב, ועל רכס בית זיתא מצפון. גובה הרחבה מעל פני הקרקע בנקודה הגבוהה ביותר (בפינת הכותל המזרחי והכותל הדרומי), מגיע לכדי 50.6 מטרים.
רק פסגתו של הר המוריה בולטת מתוך הרחבה, בחלק המכונה היום 'מצטבא', בפסגת הר הבית. פסגה זו קרובה יותר לכותל המערבי (כלומר, היא אינה ממש במרכז הרחבה), ומהווה את רצפתה של כיפת הסלע, אותה סובבים המבקרים במקום. רצפה זו היא אבן השתייה, ממנה על פי המסורת היהודית והמוסלמית הושתת (נבנה) העולם.
