It is likely that Naomi's family would have traveled on this one. There would be no reason for them to go as far north as Bethel.Todd Bolenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06156730661243501832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20570989.post-70903602122875511092007-07-19T10:53:00.000-05:002007-07-19T10:53:00.000-05:00Todd, sorry this is off topic, but I wanted to pick your brain on something which I haven't been able to answer via the Internet. I was wondering about the route that Elimelech, Naomi and the boys would have taken when traveling from Bethlehem to Moab. After studying a lot of old maps and judging by the attitude of Edom towards Israel, I would guess that they traveled around the north end of the Dead Sea, down through the territory belonging to Gad and Reuben, and finally across the Arnon into Moab. My question is this, Did the original road go from Bethlehem to Jerusalem, then up to the area of Bethel and Ai before heading east to Jericho? Or was there a road that existed at that time that went from Jerusalem to Jericho? Thanks for your time, and once again, sorry for the off-topic post.<BR/><BR/>DerekDerek Linderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219578476764405116noreply@blogger.com
