Qasr al-Yehud (Castle of the Jews) is a baptismal location on the Jordan River. The site is in the Palestinian Authority of the West Bank 15 km from the northern end of the Dead Sea and southeast of Jericho. Qasr Al-Yehud is believed to be the Biblical site where John baptized Jesus; this symbolized his spiritual birth.
This stretch of the river is also where Joshua led the Israelites to cross the River Jordan into the Promised Land. The Prophet Elijah is said to have ascended to heaven from this location. The area covers both banks of the Jordan River - on the east bank in the Kingdom of Jordan and on the west bank at Qasr al-Yehud.
Visiting Qasr al-Yehud
Qasr al-Yehud was closed to visitors from 1967 to 1994 when the area was a no man’s land. Following the peace agreement between Jordan and Israel the site was reopened in 2011 and restored. It is now accessible to visitors with the addition of handrails and steps leading down into the water.
Several churches have been built near Qasr al-Yehud over the years beginning in the Byzantine era but only ruins have survived. Two new outdoor chapels are now used by visiting Christians of all denominations. Special celebrations take place here on January 6th for the Feast of Epiphany by the Western Churches; January 19th for the Theophany by Eastern Orthodox Churches and during the Easter weekend.
Two Baptismal Sites of the Jordan River
You may have heard of an alternate baptismal site called Yardenit, located in northern Israel near the southern end of the Sea of Galilee. Yardenit is also on the Jordan River and was created as an alternative site for Christian pilgrims who wanted to be baptized in the Jordan but could not reach Qasr al-Yahud due to logistic and security obstacles. Qasr e-Yahud is closer to the geographical location described in the Bible as Jesus’ baptismal site but Yardenit is a good alternative when it is not possible to reach Qasr al-Yahud.

How beautifully it was then now Level of dirtiness of present corrupted world visible .Lord Forgive us.
I think one should be Blessed to have dip in The River. Thank you brother Zahi.
@@richarddemuth7077 one should take a holy dip there, it's not ur bath room to have a bath. May God bless you.
@@iyappannatarajan8077 To take a "holy dip" you must bathe in PURE LIVING SPRING WATER ENERGIZED by the EARTH!
@@richarddemuth7077 The water is highly polluted now unfortunately. The countries should have an agreement and take care of this problem to return the river to its former glory and make it a fresh river.
@@kraf9132 it was ALWAYS like that. It's just a muddy river!
@@richarddemuth7077 No it wasnt always like this, do a search online. Everyone says its now polluted but wasnt the case before. Color itself is one indicator, im not saying its polluted because of the color per se (yes you can have muddy water that is safe). "
The lower Jordan River is filled with raw sewage and contaminated agricultural runoff from neighbouring communities in Israel, the West Bank and Jordan." Its so opaque proving how contaminated it is. If it was brown or green but also slightly transparent then that would be a sign its not pilluted but just mixed with soil.
Que lugar maravilhoso! 💟🌹
Everyone needs salvation here are the words of salvation please forgive me jesus im a sinner come into my heart and save me from my sin I no that you are the savior and I no that you died for me on calvary and I no that God raise you from the dead and you are alive and I thankyou for your salvation in Jesus holy name amen and its important to always ask for forgiveness every night

Isac, what a beautiful ceremoni ! How is the water in Jordan? It is said that Jordan’s water can unite the nations that depend on it. Do you think so?
I don't know but it sound great
Matthew 28:18-19
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. 🙏✝️
Hi Zahi, I’ve been to Jerusalem twice. The first time was with a Christian group (Calvary) this is where the Christians go to get baptized in the Jordan river. Please show where the Catholics believe John the Baptist, baptized, Jesus. It is not this location. I was in Jerusalem 2018.
This is the location of Joan the Baptist. If you are talking about Yardenit than that site is amazing but not the real one
@@zahishaked Hello Zahi, how are you. Why do you consider Qasr al yahud as a bad name, it just means castle of the Jews. Am I missing something?
At THAT EXACT spot??!! HOW do they KNOW?? Did he leave 👣??
Yes. it's call the Bible
JESUS WAS BAPTIZED IN THAT MUDDY WATER?
Probably yes. You see mud , for me it's holy water.
That dirty water is Holy for the Prince of Peace Yeshua, our creator Baptisted in it. May His name be praised forever 🙏 ❤
