Let us take a closer view of the village along the eastern slope of the Samaritan mountain. This group of houses is the modern representative of the splendid city where stood King Ahab's ivory palace, where Elijah delivered his flaming messages, where Elijah dwelt, and where long afterward Herod the Great held his court. This was the city, too, where Philip the Evangelist, when driven out of Jerusalem by the persecuting Saul, preached the Gospel of Christ, and founded his first Christian Church outside the pale of Judaism. Do you see in the foreground some steps leading dowm from the road? That is the entrace to the Pool of Samaria, where the chariot of the slain King Ahab was washed, and foretold by Elijah and narrated by the writer of Second Kings. Mean and insignificant as this village is, it has a past of deep interest.
