The caravan had now traveled for two and a half days. In the heat of the afternoon, Yeshua would nap in the back of the wagon. They were now a little more than half way to Yerushlem. Their provisions were getting thinner. By the end of the third day, they had reached Tephon.
In Tephon, they were able to eat, water the animals and refill their waterskins. They had to be careful and watch for con men and crooks. This was Yeshua's first look at the upper crust of society. As he watered their two donkeys, he was amazed at everything going on at this roadside inn.
All of a sudden, Yeshua was confronted by two beggars. He smiled and gave each a coin. His father set up the tents in the courtyard of the inn. Miriam, Yosef and Yeshua enjoyed a dinner of almonds, dates and figs. Tomorrow, they will be walking toward the Temple Mount of Yerushlem. They were within two days of the Holy City.
