"A Song of Ascents" - The Pilgrimage Road (Episode 15) - City of David: Bringing the Bible to Life

Among the most famous sections in the Books of Psalms in the Bible are chapters 120 - 134, which all begin with the words, "A song of ascents."
Attributed to King David, these Psalms were sung by the Jewish pilgrims as they journeyed to the Holy Temple, which stood atop the Temple Mount (Mount Moriah).
However, perhaps the opening words of these Psalms can help us more deeply understand the physical pilgrimage experience in Jerusalem thousands of years ago.

Its amazing to think that in Israel a person is walking on history all over the place. That's why I love the place.

Beautiful. Seeing the city as it was, and how much of it remains to this day, assures us that God preserved His city so all generations would know that His hand is upon Jerusalem!

Well Awesome thank you for sharing

This is epic! History coming to life. There is a reason, I believe, that this is being revealed now in our days. Gives new meaning to "a song of ascents"

How do I get to that tunnel

[@RoseSharon7777]

Why in the heck would they walk uphill for 1/2 miles after a mikvah? They'd need to do it again when they got there.
