Basilica of Agony.MOV

This video was taken in the Church of Nations or the Basilica of Agony in Jerusalem, Israel on our Israel trip January 2010. The rock in the floor of the church is traditionally held as the rock where Jesus grieved (Mat. 26:38), and he sweated blood (Luke 22:44). This also would have been near his betrayal and arrest. The church sits across the Kidron Valley east of the Eastern Gate of old Jerusalem where the Dome of the Rock Mosque now sits, but where in Jesus' time would have been the temple of King Herod. The olive trees around the church are claimed to be 2,000 years old.
