Subject: Why identify the cities and not the man? |
Bible Note: Greetings EdB - you asked: "Wasn’t this a perfect picture of Jesus? A Man in a hostile land willing to lay down His life for someone that would never consider reciprocating? Pouring Himself out for another." Yes - see note 142094. I suspect there is much for us to consider about this journey from Jersulaem to Jericho . . . where the "walls came a tumblin' down"!
