Did you know that today is Yom Kippur in Israel? Since last night at sundown, literally everything shut down. No trains, no buses, no cars and even the major outdoor market is closed. They go so far as take television off the air until tonight! It is as if they are taking the Bible seriously. Join us one of our Tours to Israel next year to experience the bible up-close and personal.
