Jericho

Jericho Excerpt With a great crowd following Him , Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem for that  final Passover . There were two cities named Jericho : the ruined old city and the  new city about a mile away, built by Herod. This helps to explain how He could  depart from Jericho ( Matt.  20:29 ), draw near to Jericho  ( Luke  18:35 ), and come and  go out of Jericho all at the same time and still meet the two blind beggars ( Matt.  20:30 ). Mark describes the healing of Bartimaeus, the more vocal of the two, just  as he did the healing of one of the Gadarene demoniacs ( 5:2 ).  More Wiersbe, Warren W.  Wiersbe’s Expository Outlines on the New Testament .

Jericho ‎Jericho. An aerial view of the lowest city in the world, 250 meters below sea level, 10 kilometers north of the Dead Sea, surrounded by cultivated fields and water reservoirs blue as precious stones set in an ornament. The spring that made Jericho an oasis, Ein-al-Sultan, is associated with the prophet Elisha, who purified its water with salt in response to a request from the people of Jericho, as told in II Kings 2:19–22 .
