My father flew as a pilot in a B-17 during WW 2. He was 21 y/o. He flew bombing missions, food/supply missions, and rescue missions. He felt the pain of the war for rest of his life. But, I say thank you to those who have protected our country.

The Madaba Church existed about 500 AD. The location of Jerusalem as related to the Dead Sea can be seen. Sodom's location is based on Dr S Collins work at Tall el Hammam. The location of Jericho is well documented-and people at Jericho had to travel up to Jerusalem.. Bethlehem is noted as well. Jerusalem is portrayed in the cardo style of the Romans. Matthew 20
17 "And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them, 18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, 19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again." Genesis 2
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. 4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens, 5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. See archaeology and Culture of the Middle East link on this website for more information. The Great Rift Valley was formed by the Great Fault that runs through the boundary of Israel and Jordan. The hills and mountains on both sides contain fossils consistent with the development of the topography of the land occurring post Noah Flood. Great Rift Valley seen in NASA photo above (public domain). The Gulf of Suez and part of the Red Sea is seen below it. The Great Rift extends into Africa. It is part of the result of tectonic activity occurring during and post Flood. (See Writings of Drs. John Baumgardner and Andrew Snelling.)
Matthew 5 1 "And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: 2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, 3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
