We left Gideon's Cave and went on to Mount Carmel where Elijah had his historic confrontation with the priests of Baal. Then on to a reconstruction of what Nazereth might have been like in Jesus time. Many displays of ancient lamps, nails, pottery, tools, Roman soldiers, etc. There was an enclosure with sheep and a shepherd, an olive press and some buildings that would have been what was around for living quarters in Jesus time. There was a woman weaving and a man working with wood. And a cross that might have been the same as the one Jesus had to carry.
