Inside Hezekiah's tunnel
Dear ol' Bro Judd
I absolutely loved our field trip to the City of David.
This was the city that David built, and is the oldest neighborhood of Jru.
During the reign of Hezeiah, he wanted to stop paying tribute to the Assyrians, and so prior to doing that, he prepared his city by building a different tunnel to protect their water supply. So that's what we walked through. It was a rainy day, so the water level was higher, but it was so much fun. Singing our way through, I loved it.
The stepped stone structure (millo) was built to hold up David's temple and the building projects on top of the mountain. Another wall there dates back to Melchezidek's day. Neat, eh?
Jessi,
