Photo posting: Mount of Beatitudes





On the shores of the Sea of Galilee, this is where, in the Christian tradition, Jesus of Nazareth preached the Sermon on the Mount. Standing on that same hill, overlooking the Sea (actually, a fresh water lake, here called Kinneret, it is fed and drained by the surprisingly small Jordan River), it's hard for me to not be moved. Of all the sermons I've heard, this one still sums up Christianity the best, IMHO.
