the olive trees which gave this

valley of Kedron has no suggestion
of its former fertility. There is a
painfully realistic representation of
the crucifiction in a wayside chapel,
and a more cherry picture of the
Ascension. A Syrian guide points
out to you many things you must
take on faith. The Mauger with
the Blessed Babe and Virgin Mother
and the wise men presenting their
gifts, gold, to their King. Frank
incense to their God and Myrrah
for burial. The borrowed tombs
of Joseph is shown where worship
ping pilgrims have so defaced the
stone by chipping that slab of
