the "Father of Settlements" off,
ciated.
Towns Crowded
Except for Jerusalem, where
winter is still felt in full force
with strong, cold winds bringing
heavy rain and hail, every Israeli
village, town and collective settle
3ment was overcrowded with guests
from abroad and pilgrims from
other parts of the country.
A mood of festival prevailed.
,Pilgrimages to Jerusalem were
