 The Ancient Garden Of Gethsemane At The Foot Of The Mount Of Olives

At the foot of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, Israel is an ancient garden like no other. The trees are so beautiful with their knotted and twisted trunks that the years have produced.Nature has worked over-time in this timeless garden of the ages.  This is the garden that Jesus went to often with His disciples to pray (John 18:2.)  This is the scene of the last nights activities where Jesus came with His disciples to pray ( John 18:1-11.)
