Abraham's well


Abraham's Well, being Friday here in Israel it is the start of the weekend and so the gates were locked. after climbing a wall I could partially see what is said to be Abraham's Well.
Interestingly it would have been one of the first things the light horsemen would have come to in Be-er Sheeva (as it is now known). It is worth having a think about what God made as a oath to Abraham about. It was in essence that Abraham would be the father of a great nation. Enter the revitalization of that plan when Be-er Sheeva was reclaimed from the Turkish in 1917. The plot thickens.
