School

In school ~ {I homeschool} I decided we would take the time out to learn about the history of Israel.  And it has been quite fun.  We started out with Abraham and Sarah, and the issues that we see even today from  the 'hooking up' with Hagar to bring Ishmael into existence. 
Wow ~ how awesomely peaceful would the Middle East be today if Abraham and Sarah would have trusted G-d and HIS timing.  Hmmmmmmm..........
Anyway ~ we have enjoyed the journey from the judges and the tabernacle to the building of the temple by Solomon and the destruction of Herod's temple by Titus in 70 AD.  We learned about the Jewish government back in the Bible times ~ the Sanhedrin.  And tomorrow I'm hoping to teach about the modern day form of government there ~ and look at the blueprints for the future temple. 
We learned who stole the Temple Mount from the Jewish people and built the Dome of the Rock.  And what the significance  is today ~ Once again going back to the Sarah/Abraham/Hagar love triangle. 
My goal is to instill a love for the land Israel and a desire to support it.
