Okay, I'm going to change gears here just a little. As I mentioned in my first post, I love any and all kinds of history, especially when it comes to Israel and the Bible.
In fact, outside of actual Biblical history, my favorite time period is definitely the Roman Empire—which influenced and impacted the New Testament world in so many ways. You can clearly see Roman remains today in Israel, and of course, the Romans played a huge role in the Gospel story... since Jesus was crucified on a Roman cross.
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to spend a few days in Rome. It was everything I'd hoped it would be and more. It completely ruined my feet (story to come), filled me with the most delicious food and entranced me with her beauty.
So for the next few weeks, I'm going to share stories of that trip here. But not to worry—more posts about Israel are still to come!
