As a believer in Christ, it is poignant to witness the significance of this street in the narrative of our faith. While it’s bustling with market life and the delightful fragrance of spices and fresh bread, I can't help but reflect on the events that unfolded here for our liberation in Christ. The warmth of the people is a blessing... God bless Israel!
