_________________________________________________
Did Jesus really give the Sermon on the Mount from the top of the mountain?
Did the disciples know each other before they met Jesus?
What did a synagogue really look like?
Everyone I've ever met who has been to the Holy Land has told me that it will forever change the way you read the Bible.
So, in preparation for a 2023 trip I will be helping to lead to the Holy Land, I went and met with Rick Ricart from Imagine Tours and Travel, and Brandon Snipe from @TheSnipeLife (who will also be leading the trip) to talk about four places in the Holy Land that will change the way you see the Bible.
And I'll just let you know up front, this conversation with Rick forever changed the way I see the Sermon on the Mount!
Thanks for watching!

I've talked to people who've been to the Holy Lands and they tell me it's surreal to walk along a path Jesus walked even thousands of years later. I can only imagine.
Me too.
I can't tell you how much I wish I could go there
I wonder what it would be like: really quite hot? Desert places seem to only be temperate in the evening hours, cold at night.
assuming that it is the same way...once again, this place has been over run, what, about four times....
My wife and I are new to Christianity so this will be a very special trip for us.
So glad you can join us!
In the name of Jesus Amen
I would love to go to the holy land, but I am too poor and old at 63, I live on SSDI, so I watch films know I will be there with Jesus when he returns ❤️ and ✝️🛐 s
I was privileged to visit once. I cried in the church of the Holy Selpuchre. Boat on Galilee. King David's Palace. Masada watching sun rise over Dead Sea. And more. Its forever etched in my memory
Having been to Israel many times, as well as the amazing places that represent Bible days, I was deeply impacted by the sense of God's presence in the land of The Book where Jesus lived, taught and died for us.
I am curios to hear why your guest said that the Church of the Hole sephalcure (Spelling??) is of great significance??. I was there and in the middle of the church is a table with a cloth hanging over it. They told the tourists to feel under the table is a square hole in the floor, and that is where the cross of Jesus was and the hole is still preserved. I then asked them weather the position of the new walls were changed when the city was rebuilt? They said no, it might be a little off, but as close as possible to the original city walls. So, i then told them that according to the Bible Jesus was crucified OUTSIDE the city and not inside, so this can not be the correct place. The they just ignored me and did not answer my question. So, i realized that many places there are just money making schemes and one must be very careful not to believe everything they tell you.
I always thought that Jesus knew who would be his disciples as he could see inside a person heart and mind.
I will pray my rosary that your trip will be safe and loving.
I now live in Australia ( 4.5 years ) it is always amazing to me that people have no idea about my homeland, or better still, where Ye-hua walked into His-story. 😳 Remember that we are told that " My people are destroyed ( even deceived ), though the lack of knowledge " 🙏🕎🌎🌍🌏✝️🪔
I will be going there soon . I am a texan but am blessed toive in the middle East and I can't wait to get there 🙏
I have not had the same issues about visualizing the realities of biblical stories, but I do have issues about wishing to understand what I do not understand, to be more aware of the understanding I lack, becoming aware of what I don’t know. Your lesson is a good one, an important one. Humility, the willingness to learn, is much easier to talk about than to practice. Thank you for the lesson.
Brandon, you make your words come alive with your physical expressions 😊. That makes me enjoy listening to you about the Bible. 🙏
Brandon I recently found your channel and have really enjoyed your videos!!
This just hit me to ask as I was commenting. I have a prayer request for anyone reading this. My daughter is 20 and in her senior year of college. She is struggling with some of the influences there. She is kinda alone as a Christian who loves the Lord. Some of the Sorority girls are playing with crystals and new age and the rest are sleeping around and drinking. I could and she could really use some prayers. Thank you all, thank you very much!!
Lord have your protecting eyes, comforting arms around your daughter in this school environment. Surround her and her family with your wisdom to make right choices, having you Lord as priority into her future and marriage . Holy Spirit , wonderful teacher and comforter, calm her heart in the mist of peer pressures and continue to be her best friend. In Jesus Name.
Hey, Danny. I just prayed for her. May God provide her with a community of other Christians alongside whom she can grow in her relationship with Jesus and help others to know him as well.
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry Thank You Brother!! Thank You Very Much!! Are you in the DFW Area? Something you said on one of the videos made me think that.
@@kunumanyomo9302 Thank You Kunuman!! I really really appreciate it!!
@@Captain-Awesome I'm not. I've actually never been to Texas 😬
I never knew about the position of Jesus when he delivered the sermon on the mount. Thinking about the Greek amphitheaters how the actors were below on stage while all the people watching the play.
I would love to visit Israel someday, but next year is not the year. Thank you for the video and the time you took to explain the significance of a lot of the places there. 🙏✝️❤
I have found this at te King’s church in Wisbech Cambridgeshire it is a small evangelical church which meets at a community centre founded by an ex Salvation Army couple and has done more for me than any psychiatric hospital
It’s mind blowing how close everything is,.
I always pictured the Jordan river to be huge, as God split it 3 times… it’s tiny!
And due to the story of Moses in the bottle brush, I always pictured the Nile as narrow… it has islands in it with bridges connecting them to each other & the river banks. It’s really wide.
I doubt that those bridges would have been there in the time of Jesus' preaching.
@@patriciajrs46 you’d be surprised.
But that’s not the point of my comment
@@daduzadude1547 Okay. I wasn't meaning to start anything.
Have a good day.
Going there truly is a game changer.. don't miss the chance
Thanks my friend! It does feel lonely at times. I ask God to guide me everyday and today he answered. Thank you for what you do and your prayer. For it is with what I struggle with everyday. God bless.
Re: the SOM, it makes sense that He would teach from below. He showed us the Example of how we are called to be servant/ leaders.
Glory to Father! Jesus-Christ! Holy Spirit! Hello with Love! Shalom! I can feel the excitement of being there in Jerusalem! Praise the Lord! I followed 2 courses at the Israel Bible Institute on the topography of Israel, wow! what an eye opener, insights and understanding of scriptures, places..etc. with Prof. Cindy Parker. I do not know how i will make it there someday, it's a dream for me, my faith is in Christ to make it a reality. He is my truth, the way to eternal life. I believe. Amen. Thank you Father!!!
I have always thought it was a strange idea to give a sermon on top of a mount, with the crowd below breaking their necks to see Jesus over the people above them and trying to understand what was said. But strangely, I don't remember thinking that He could have been below instead...
LOVE to go to Israel 🇮🇱.. TO the villages.. Bethlehem Nazareth. Jerusalem.. Galilea. .. Jordan rivers... Everywhere.. Where HE has Walked...🙏🙏🙏🙏💓💓💓💓. 🐟🐟🐟🐟
glad to have seen this now...come just now home from work.
Thank you, brother 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Great presentation, Gentlemen. Brandon x2 and Ric are absolutely correct: If folks have never gone to Israel before, going there will change your life . . . especially with Brandon x2 and Ric. If there is any way you can make it happen, please do not put it off. You will not regret your decision !
I could only dream of going there.but some day when i go back home he will tell me about all he did when he was here but i know where i came from and i know where i am going back too i know he put me here i might not know were to find all the scriptures in the bible but i know it and he lives in me i know if you love him you will do his Commandments and when you mess up you repent right then and there and always tell the truth even if it hurts if I had more time boy I could Shore give you a good testimony of the love that God has for all of us because he's been with me for 56 years he's never left me and he's never forsaken me
Well we might not travel there but with the grace of God we will enjoy the New Jerusalem 🕎🙏
@BRANDON ROBBINGS Thank you so much for this Brother, Elohim Bless you in Yeshua Mighty Name
I've traveled Jordan, so I'm quite excited for this episode!
I pray that me and my future wife could go to the Holy Land and see things firsthand.
Love to see but no jab for me
Mt. Nebo, very surreal. I didn't get to the west side of the Jordan, but quite breathtaking to see the view that Moses was shown as well. The air even tastes different.
Been there! Life changing.
I would love to visit the holy land, but besides that visit all the places mentioned in the whole bible😁
Thank you your videos are awesome. Della Warren here. Amen.
I know one thing for sure! Everyone left will visit Jerusalem yearly. Blessed are those in the first resurrection 🙏
It's always interesting the ways that Jesus presented His teachings in humble settings. From the bottom of the mountain, below the people, rather than above them, looking down on them to teach- is significant.
It makes me wonder if He raised His voice when He threw the moneychangers out of the temple.
Let's go Brandon!
I believe that every Christian needs to go to the Holy Land at least once in their life!
Hey, Muslims do go to Mecca!
I am blessed to have gone to Israel. Capernaum was most awesome! Peter’s house, the synagogue on the sea!
Also Magdela too was amazing. Synagogue there too.
Jesus walked all over the place there!
Keep sharing this so people will save their pennies and go with you.
It
DOES change your visual images etc. of reading Scripture!
You will see the real deal and it brings JESUS and the apostles to life!
Awesome guys! 👍👏
So much good stuff here woot!
Brandon, l am Canadian senior enjoying my biblical studies of the Gospels and Acts again. It was so very much a sign to me when watching this video about the visit to the Holly land. And it is a mirical that without moving from my chair to reach down on a side table and pull up a recently purchased book to follow along with your discussion. THE HOLLY LAND FOLLOW THE STEPS OF JESUS JUBILEE YEAR, 2000, by ETTY BOOCHNY . this fully-featured with photos and descriptions exactly as described by your GUESTS! Can't help feeling the Joy of the Holy Spirit in my little house! Particularly since l have over 200 texts in my home, probabley 1/5 of them biblical, especially, or stories relating to biblical topics.
Also my word for a theme to look for in my studies this 3rd year of study is "JOY; and l am using it and FEELING it with my studies. Your Ministry is one l follow - as your interpretation aligns with mine. I am unable to financially support you, however this is my way of Thanking you and pray with you, and supporting your presentations . I worked my way through THE CHOSEN, which l also embraced Dallas Jenkins and crew. AMEN TO THE WORD. dona
God Loves YOU...
Let's Go, Brandon
Wow this is amazing and eye opening. Amazing.
I am so delighted to have found you!!! Thank you for sharing the ministry!!!
Yay it's time
Thank you for this and I love the Chosen I can hear Jesus
Thank you for this good news eye-opener, and your great program. God is moving awesomely!
Amen, you are right about the art, as beautiful as it is.
Thank you for these videos and the prayer at the end. Shalom shalom.
I got my first artz box and it is all about the Golan Heights. I made a display for our house church fellowship on Zoom. I got the oil lamp the virgins would carry and so much more. Waiting on my next box. I got the subscription and one box extra, free. I wish I could get some dirt however.
Wow Brandon thank you for your passion to learn about the character of God❤️🙏
Three minutes into the video, I got goosebumps, can't wait to see and hear what's it about. 💓🙏🥰
Thanks. At 73 I'm still hoping for that trip to Israel. Even if I don't get to go I know who walks with me. And I know I will never walk
or go through anything He hasn't walked through or experienced.⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾ He is sooo good! 💗
I am also looking forward to this episode. Excited for the group on the upcoming trip. Looking at the trip itinerary that Brandon posted, it's put together so well. I talked to my husband about going but he gave me reasons of why it wasn't a good time for him to get away. Lol, we would probably drive everyone insane if we were going anyway.
Hopefully there will be another time that works :-)
Blessed Hope imminent....
I would love to visit Israel & see where Jesus & other Bible characters lived, worked, worshipped, & interacted...
I'll be helping to lead a trip next year if you'd like to go with us.

I hope you can join us!
Thank you for this enlightening video. Will the tour be available for people from outside the US?
💗
Brother, you are describing a perfect lectio devina contemplative practice.
Somebody needs to paint a painting with Jesus at the bottom of the hill
Hi Brandon! I just started reading and soaking the scriptures about one month ago. I found the Hallow app thru Jim Caveziel and found The Chosen as well!!!! I feel blessed and joyful to be closer to God and Jesus. Through my search, I also was led to you. Before that tho, I got curious what the distance is between Capernaum and Nazareth, after watching The Chosen and learning that Jesus walked that. I googled and found out there are trips that I can participate in!!!!!
Then just now, I found out about your trip to Israel! That already happened 4 months ago!!!!!!! 😞
Are you going to have another one in the future? I was planning to go on my own in October. It would be nice to be with a knowledgeable guide.
This was WONDERFUL and brings me ‘right to where Christ walked.’ Especially Brandon when you pointed out ,’ he could have just walked away. ‘ what more or better proof is there that Jesus is Gods Son?
I WISH I could attend this trip….I’ll leave it in Gods hands.
this….I have so much gratitude to all 3 of you, and to our Lord and His disciples.
We don't need proof. Just believe
It's extraordinarily hard for some people... and I think some Christians take their ability to have faith for granted... For some its like being asked to play sheet music when they have never sat at a piano before...
@@jimvick8397 I agree with you 100%. Sometimes I can just have faith. And sometimes I feel like I need proof. But more than anything, and the chosen as a television series bringing Christ to me now from his time to mine has been amazing for me and secondly, walking where Christ walked would so much firm up my faith because- I can feel what he felt the land has not changed. For example knowing that he was in the garden in the desert was 50 yards behind him and he could have turned and run... Immediately sent me to tears. I didn't realize that and there's no way I could realize it without hearing from someone who has been there in the holy land or going there myself.
To the other commenter yes it's nice to just have faith. But for some of us our brain or something else gets in the way and we need help to have that faith.
Jesus helped his followers that he lived with all the time and it's okay for us to seek help too.
@@trinitywright7122 See... I know it's all true and I'm as lonely and heartbroken as I've ever been...
The best way to read the Bible is to read it as if you were a child. A child has no judgment, no expectations, but they are full of wonder, humble and wide open. It’s an entirely different experience to read the Bible as if you were a child reading Scripture for the very first time💜
My wife and I were in Israel on pilgrimage in 2019 ( Dec). My favorite area was around the Sea of Galilee. Jerusalem and the Temple Mount I did not care for. The continual onslaught of evil and traditions I found repulsive.
Interesting about Jesus message being delivered below the audience. One area where The Chosen did not get the imagery historically correct. (While their set of the synagogue where Jesus heals the withered hand and other aspects like skin tones and noses and costumes seem to be pretty spot on)
I agree i found this very interesting as well but it contradicts scripture..Matthew 5:1 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him,
I am interested in the trip.
Awesome!

This is helpful to me as a Christian artist. I am illustrating the Bible
Wow! Any link to your stuff? Would love to see!
Good for you, using your God Given purpose of artistry... it's good for those of us who work with words. Inspire away ! ✨
I always thought the sea of Galilee was a sea when we went over there is like a lake it's very different looking at it in person
Lakes are fresh water and seas are salt. So yes it's a lake
Hello I truly enjoy your teaching and I learned a lot I want to get in touch with you because I did not get the information for the trip for 2023 I truly would love to go if I can so can you please send me information on the trip thank you so much and happy New Year to you and your family

Hey, Margaret. We are definitely still going. And the company is still in business. If you have trouble reaching them, let me know. Shoot me and email at brandon@brandonrobbinsministry.com
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry ok
I have been there so I know. I still watched the presentation, interesting. I haven't checked the land mass. I believe Israel can fit inside Georgia and Alabama, so nothing is too far away. Of course, it is way longer than it is wide

I feel that way where I have no one to study the scriptures with.
I bought myself a KJV teaching Bible from Liberty University sold on Amazon. It’s fantastic and you don’t really need anyone explaining it to you because the footnotes tell you everything. ❤️🙏🏻
Jesus was seated in a Servant position humbly situated at the bottom of the incline so as not to look down on anyone...
Actually Capernaum synagogue is from 4th century. Ruins of Magdala synagogue on the other hand are from 1st century. Chances are Jesus Himself must have been there I have been to the land 6 times and it has truly opened up my eyes and I read Bible differently.
I have been to Old Jerusalem...and I wonder how much is the same, as way back when, especially how the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in about 70 AD.....
I'm hoping to be raptured soon.
What I struggle with is that I don’t want to get married I like being by myself.
Things that struck me about visiting the Holy Land was 1. how close Peter's (alleged) house was to the sea of Galilee - It shouldn't have been a surprise, he was a fisherman lol but if this was actually his house, he could literally pull his boat up into his back garden! 2. I always pictured Bethlehem in a valley overlooked by the sheep on the hillside - again, as you mention with the sermon on the mount, it is the other way round - the town is on a hill and the shepherds were in the valley! Also, it was pointed out to use, these were possibly the same fields that Boaz owned in the old testament that Ruth worked in! 3. Cana and Nazareth are so close - makes sense that Mary and Jesus would have known people there! 4. As you mentioned, the location of the garden of Gethsemene in relation to the temple and how Jesus would have seen them coming!
I wish I could come with you guys, you are going to love it :)
Thank you for this! I love hearing about these insights and experiences!
Yeah I didn’t know the apostles were people Jesus knew and were friends with.
Hi Brandon, did u sent me the message asking to help Divine Mercy Orphanage Homeless Foundation in Nigeria?
I didn’t. That is a scam. I’ve tried to remove them all. I’m sorry it keeps happening.
What is the cost for the tour?
We Catholics believe that Golgotha is inside the Holy Sepulcher Church. I realize that other Christians prefer the GardenTomb.
Jesus knows--anyway! 💜🙏👍✝️

I love The Chosen. Sadly now you have to go to a theater to watch the Christmas episode. People like me in rural areas can't watch it.Hope this doesn't turn out to be just another movie making financial decisions and not what we all believed to be a wonderful gift to the church. Why can't they keep it people paying it forward?I would have put this on the Chosen website but there is no place to post.Thank you Bra

"He went UP INTO A MOUNTAIN" Matt. 5:1
The Bible appears to contradict the man's thoughts that Jesus was at the bottom of the hill.
I can definitely see what you're saying and why that would seem contradictory.
It may be an issue of ambiguity in the greek:
"anabaino" can mean to "go up" literally or figuratively.
And the word translated "into" is "eis", which can mean a variety of things, such as into, unto, to, towards, for, and among.
So as we try to translate this, we could end up with "he went up into the mountain" or "he went up to the mountain" (which could mean he was at its base).
What stands out to me is that none of these definitions is precisely how we would say it. We would say "he went up onto the mountain." But onto doesn't appear to be a possible definition, at least according to Strong's.
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry good point. Thank you for interacting with the text and drawing what you believe from the text instead of saying that a scholar said such and such and basing what you believe based on what somebody else said.
Eis is translated 82 of its 1773 occurrences in the New Testament in the King James Bible as “upon” (24X) or “on” (52X). It appears that it could have been either Him going up to (the base of) the mountain or Him going up on the mountain. It seems that the context would need to determine that and I’ll leave the Holy Spirit to be the one who teaches the reader what that is.
Thanks for bringing this out. Very interesting to think about!
Everybody knows that Jesus walked around with a massive gold chain around his neck and preached the more wealth you hoard the better God loves you, or hang on a second he didn't do that but that's the way a lot of religions and the US is interpreting the Bible
The Bible is sufficient to interpret itself. You either take it at face value, or you twist it according to your own values.
Where was Stephen martyred? I never thought it was in Jerusalem but where Paul(Saul) lived!
Hi Brandon, I have to admit the Bible passages seem to contradict each other: Luke 6 has Jesus going DOWN, and lifting His eyes to His disciples. Matthew 5 has Jesus going UP a mountain. Since Matthew was an eyewitness and Luke was not,...? Is the location of the Sermon on the Mount known for certain?
My wife and I would love to join this tour, however we are from South Africa. Is there a way that we could link up in Israel to join the tour? Flying to the US is not an option at the moment.
Hi, Evert. I believe that it is definitely still possible for you to go. You could select a "Land Only" version of the trip and just purchase your own airfare. If you reach out to Imagine Tours and Travel, they should be able to help you with it :-)
I hope you all can join us!
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry Thank you, Sir. It's time to start planning...

Another example of how geography changes our understanding of scripture. In Matthew 7 Jesus talks about building on the rock and not the sand. The sand was a dry river bed. A storm miles away could turn the dry river bed in a torrent river in minutes.
Do you know of any books that connect geography with Jesus’ story and His daily walk? Please send me some suggestions.
If someone in your audience is looking for an online church (primary or in addition to your physical church) try out Our Safe Harbor with Patrick Mead. A very objective and uplifting channel. I especially like the “who told you that “ series where he kindly researches where some of our dogma comes from.
I disagree the part about Jesus preaching the sermon from the base of the hill. When our tour group was there, we did an experiment stationing one at the top of the hill and another at the base. The acoustics from either direction was equally clear. Besides, this fact of Jesus being at the top of the hill is supported in the verses Matthew 5:1, we read, “He went up on a mountain…” and after He finished his sermons, in Matthew 8:1, we read, “When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.”
I will go to Israel within five years, God willing. I am at the beginning stages of reading the Bible and my spiritual awakening. ❤️🙏🏻
So i love this video but 10 mins in..they talk about the sermon on the mount and how jesus sat at bottom of the mountain..but Matthew 5:1 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, unquote..or am i missing something
I can definitely understand that confusion. It’s an issue with the Greek. “Go up” can be figurative or literal. And the word translated “into” can have several other translations as well.
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry so the greek word used is anabaino which as u say is figurative or literal..it could mean ascend..climb..rise up or spring up..so it could be that jesus simply stood up when he saw the crowd. Thank u brandon for the most interesting and informative channel ever..i have learnt and shared so much from your teaching. May Gods favour rest on u in Jesus name
