One of the most interesting things about the Middle East especially Israel is that the most sacred land to all religions is here...

While we here are to see some wrestling and experience Israel I thought it would be fitting to visit some of the most sacred religious places to man.

To give you a brief background according to the gospel of Luke Jesus grew up in Nazareth. We visited the Annunciation Church (which is where Mary was told by the Angel Gabriel that she would have Jesus as her son).

Modern scholars believe Jesus grew up and was born in Nazareth. I knew him to be born in Bethlehem like the majority of us do.

Either way we visited Jesus home & the Church where Jesus preached at..

I hope you enjoy this real life artifact from 16BC.

If your Christian or not to see the preservation of something more than a 1000 years old is pretty impressive.

Nazareth has the best freestylers in Israel. So maybe Jesus himself was once a wrestler.

Enjoy
