House of Bread Day 2

Bethlehem in Hebrew literally translates to Bet - lechem or "house of bread" and in aramaic Bet - lechem = "house of flesh." What perfect foreshadowing of communion.

Today we went to Herodian, a scrumptious restaurant within a massive tent, Hebron, and a glass blowing shop. We also visited the wall that separates Bethlehem (the Palestinians) from Jerusalem (the Jewish population). Pictures soon.
