Elisha Vision – Commentary

And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull. Mark 15:22

The “Place of a Skull” in this verse is a specific location in Jerusalem which can still be seen today. I serve as Chairman of the Board of the Golgotha Foundation which seeks to preserve the site for Christian and archeological tourism. Golgotha is a Hebrew word meaning “Place of a Skull.” The practical fact is that the building of a new Muslim mosque, minarets and a cemetery are encroaching on the site, threatening to undermine, erode and eventually destroy the amazing cliff face.

We are excited to announce our May 2013 Update Report is now posted on the above Menu tab: Golgotha. Please review the new material and stand with us. We hope to hear any day now of our accepted application to the World Monuments Fund which will put Golgotha “on the map” so to speak.

Also, please pray for this project that the world will learn the geography of the historical death and resurrection of Jesus. It is a great confirmation of Christian faith and the Biblical record. Located in Jerusalem right next to the Garden Tomb, it precisely fits the Biblical details not only of the crucifixion, but also the resurrection.
