The most significant thing we experienced here was actually nothing to do with the site itself (which was a Cannanite city). No, the thing we saw here was the rain. Rain! In the desert! In Israel! This country receives a total of about two inches of rain a year. And we got to feel some of it.
(Although, some complained about the cold and the wet. But here we had to reflect. A thousand years ago, the people living in this very city would have given everything-- even life-- to experience what we were standing in. Being thankful...)
