Many believe this cove is where Jesus preached His "Sower" message (John 4: 1-41), which included the lamp-under-a-bushel parable and the mustard-seed parable -- and where He later in the day, while crossing the water with his Disciples, miraculously stilled the storm.

Did the Holy Family Gaze Upon This Sight?
I sometimes think about the Holy Family's flight into Egypt, to escape King Herod's wrath. I wish we had a more detailed account of their sojourn there. Do you think they might have traveled near, and actually seen, the pyramids? (Allow for time-zone diffs.)

What Did Jesus Look Like?
Well, apparently He had greyish eyes, for starters. Included in this FABULOUS site are several contemporary descriptions of Him, including an actual true-life silhouette (see 'The Emerald of Caesar.') But the first account, by a Roman official to the Roman Senate, is my favorite -- although Pontius Pilate's report to Caesar gives me happy goosebumps, too.
