So what can I say about the Jordan. Must be two syllable word with accent on the first. Flaccid? Tepid? Constant? Frigid bed? Placid? Sluggish?
Oberon is correct. It was at flood stage. But even it was a creek - to go across on dry ground... wow!
But again... I think it has probably undergone some changes...
I need to run right now, but let me tell you about Caeseara Phillipi and one of the sources of the Jordan when I return from university. It is quite fascinating.
