Thanks! Each one is special in their own way.
I know it is still AM where you are, so:
GOOD MORNING, DAN!
Thx for posting, Dan!
Thanks for posting Dan.
Patterns I noticed:
1) Silhouettes are very popular.
2) Sometimes Mary is depicted riding sidesaddle and sometimes astride. It made me wonder if sidesaddle was a ‘thing’ at this time in the first century, or if it was ever done on a donkey.
3) The distance along their route seems to be about 80 miles. That would be a 4 day trip at 20 miles a day, but it might be 5 if there were any problems, or if they couldn’t make 10 hours a day at 2 miles per hour.
4) I’ve been over that route from Jericho to the Sea of Galilee. It’s mostly the Jordan valley, a nice gradual slope, but around the Sea of Galilee you have 1000 foot climbs and descents between Nazareth and the Jordan valley. Not easy going.
