I sometimes wonder what Sergio would do without Rhoda... she is so helpful and perfect for him. They are a joy to watch. May God give them many many years of happiness 💕

Hi Rhoda and Sergio! I made a small web-research regarding this ancient Greek inscriptions on 6:35 and 7:14 These are tomb inscriptions (epitaphs) From what I can understand the name of the buried dignitary is Germanos Alexandro (2nd -4th line) And on the second inscription the name is Zacharia Seracin The menora flanked by crosses appears on many of the epitaph stones inscriptions of that period of 400-600 AD.

Thank you, I like that you hold speculations gently, too many people running around Israel taking themselves too seriously, grandly asserting their views, “I know, listen to me!” There is very very much we don’t know about many things. But this we know: Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose on the third day and will come again for those that put their trust in Him. -Colorado, USA

Such a beautiful and historic place. Thank you for not only showing the Nabataean ruins, but also linking in the Petra footage. I really appreciate the study and care you put into showing us the most important landscape in the Kingdom, from ages past and also today.

That was a great video, and the idea of a cross-shaped baptismal is so cool! And that was a delightful, hilarious blooper at the end! The 14th of February is Valentine's Day, the day of love, and it's lovely to see how this couple loves each other and loves the Lord!

A little further in Isaiah may explain what happened; Isaiah 60:12 For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted. Based on what they left behind, they may have been rich and felt they have no need for God to provide for them or help Gods people. Just a thought. Thanks for your video's, they are amazing.

So interesting! We are in the book of Isaiah at my church and I want my pastor to see this! Your theory of the 3 kings sent chills up my spine as it explains the fulfilling of that prophecy! I love this one!♡♡ Thanks you too! Stay healthy! Blessings!

Great video, guys! My wife and I love watching your videos while we drink a cup of tea here in England. I met your friend Yossi at the Nazareth Village last November; his tour was the highlight of our whole trip and our whole tour took the time that evening to pray for him as he continues to shares the Gospel there. I thought I recognised him, and then I realised it was from your videos. I took a little Greek in Bible college and the second line and first three letters of the next line say "KARIOSGERMANOS" or "blessed Germanos," which must have been the person's name. It does look a bit like a eulogy tombstone. The menorah surrounded by two crosses makes me think he must have been a Messianic Jew!

There are numerous Jewish teachers who have come to Christianity and are helping to develop study Bibles with their unique perspectives. As for back then, archaeology is producing evidence that indicates it.

To God be the Glory! In Jesus Christ! Thank you for sharing this time travel. Greetings From Davao City, Philippines ❤🇵🇭👍

These videos are great. For the inscription at the 6:30 mark, I translate the first sentence as, "The blessed Germanus [son of] Alexander lived seventeen years and seven months, and he died unmarried." I'm no expert, so take that with a grain of salt. The next part puzzles me. It appears to mention the month Dios, the ninth indiction (which would have run from about 432 to 446 A.D.), and the year, so it likely gives the date. But I haven't cracked it yet.

@@slowscape - I can't tell what the first six characters mean. From there, it says, "The blessed Zacharias of Erasinos, in the tenth [day] of the month Panemos, the 14th indiction, on the Lord's Day, in the third hour of the night ..." From there, it becomes more difficult. It mentions "the third of the Sabbath" (I think) -- perhaps the third day of the week -- the month Panemos again, and the twelfth indiction. There is a parenthetical statement "Behold, those who oppose mercy", numerals I don't understand, and the words "Give him rest." It closes with "with your saints. Amen." It's a puzzle.

Here in the Philippines we celebrate Christmas as early as September and it concludes on January 6 which is the three kings (Magi or Wise Men).

Thank you for the video! Once you mentioned Shivta - I tought to myself why did you not include Shivta and Mamsit also? They are similarly spectacular and historic. Nabateans also went down to the Ramon crater and had a caravan serai there. I was waiting to hear the fact that they were arabs mentioned. I learned from a documentary that their downfall was the rearranging of trade routes by the early Muslims.

Thank you, I love your videos. When I showed my daughter your channel, I said “ let me show you my children! “I love you two. Maranatha!!!

I always enjoy your Awesome videos! There wasn't any public transportation so when the wise men finally reached from afar Jesus He was a toddler! I recently saw my 2nd vision of the rapture so we will soon meet the Lord in the air! Shalom from Tucson, Az 😇

Sergio & Rhoda, I just want to THANK YOU for Blessing "ME" and others I am sure, with these informational historical videos of Jerusalem, surrounding areas and a peek even into your personal lives. It truly has been a blessing to me as you take me to places that I have heard, and read, of throughout my Christian life and will probably never get an opportunity to visit. I am 59 years old and because of this Covid-19 Lockdown, though I work as least five days a week at Welch's, yes the Juice and Jelly place, I have been searching for good Biblical Informational youtubes. Well, I ran into yours, or God lead me to it, and have been blessed by each video starting from the beginning. I am just over half way going through all your videos. You truly help make the Biblical Stories more Vivid as you describe who, what, when and where and through video, I get to see what is looks like now, and can start to imagine of how it could have looked then. Thank You Again ! God's Blessing on You, Rhoda and Family !

You both are great story tellers for u are a team created by God in Jesus holy name, AMEN:) The world and I thank u:)

I have become addicted to ur channel, so informative, wish they were longer. I do want to mention that Ishmael was Abraham's first son, not his grandson. Keep up the good work, I love how much U 2 show that U are still in love after 10 years of marriage, wonderful and refreshing in this day and age of hate.

The view from that location is really beautiful I agree.

Thanks guys I learn so much from you guys .

your videos make me happy give me hope!

Likely theory: Daniel saved all the "Wise Men" when God enabled him to interpret the dream the Wise Men could not. These wise men never forgot what God, through Daniel, did for them. Daniel, chapter 9 tells the prophecy of when the coming Savior would be born, which these wise men treasured and looked forward to. When the Wise Men ask Herod where the Savior was to be born, he didn't know, and ask the Jewish leaders where? The Jewish leaders knew the scriptures, but obviously no longer believed them, since they weren't looking themselves. The Messiah was no longer thought as an actual person to look and wait for by the Jews, but to these Wise Men, He was! This people group you highlight may well be the same? Thanks for another well done video!

Be blessed in the Name of Lord!!!
