It's a seven hour trek (at night) followed by a climb of seven hundred steps to reach the little church at the top. But what a view! One other thing you need to do when you tour inside St Catherine's is to cover your legs.David Weller Author Blogspothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12804601291277095675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1102623923329719653.post-4235660430222390682015-03-22T19:39:57.770+02:002015-03-22T19:39:57.770+02:00Your article and the one in Smithsonian were inter...Your article and the one in Smithsonian were interesting to me, a Seventh-day Adventist Christian who also keeps the Sabbath and doesn't eat pork. I've heard many missionary stories about Adventist pioneers from the last century who stumbled on whole villages who were keeping the Sabbath, and this information helps put it in historical context for me. Wouldn't it be fabulous if they discovered this Ark with the Commandments in them? The one Commandment that God said to remember might get some needed attention again!Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147190159864949820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1102623923329719653.post-34107170660354594922015-02-13T06:46:12.111+02:002015-02-13T06:46:12.111+02:00Great article!
