This is a closeup of the site of a large cave opening in a large rock face. The gentiles considered this the opening to the place of the dead or the "gates of hell". It was in a large solid rock face. When Jesus called Peter a "stone" and that the "gates of hell" couldn't stand against his confession, then Jesus was making contrasts of a stone versus a large rock and how even the power of death couldn't stand against the confession that Jesus was the son of God. To the right is the shrine or temple of the mythological god "Pan". Scripture: Matt 16:18

Along this winding narrow road in rugged hills Jesus said that a man who had been ambushed and robbed was helped by the Good Samaritan. Scripture: Luke 10:30-37
This is another picture of the Jordan river near where Jesus was said to have been baptized. The Jordan runs from the Sea of Galilee and empties into the Dead Sea to the south.
