Western Wall
January 31, 2020
I’m not much of a traveller. Outside of Canada and 45 U.S. States, I’ve visited Taiwan, The Philippines, and Israel. In 1990, the regional tensions were at an uneasy rest and we were able to go all through areas like The West Bank, Gaza, and the Golan Heights.
It is geographically and culturally stunning. Some places are visited for their beaches, their ability to bring an almost somnambulant quality, where rest and relaxation are a given. Israel offers endless contrasts, confrontation, challenge and comparison. I doubt anyone can go and have their presuppositions confirmed. I am quite sure everyone who leaves, leaves changed.
I have never been so moved by a place and a people as I was in Israel.

Thank you Steve. At the time I was clergy and part of Jewish-Christian Dialogue of Montreal. Our Jewish colleagues provided us with the all expenses paid trip, for which I’ll be forever grateful.

This is so different from most other works of yours. It must show how impressed you were with Israel.
