Summary

Description

The Palestinian National Authority's Tourism and Antiquities Department needs a little help with its english signs, but I will give them credit for trying. According to our guide, the tree's true age is more likely around 600 years.

"It is estimated that this tree called the tree of Zacchaeus is two thousand years old. It's history goes back to the time of the visit of Christ to Jericho on his way to Jerusalem. On his way to Jerusalem he mit under the evening shadows aman call Zacchaeus this man was the chief among the puplicans, this man was rich.Because he was short he climbed the tree of Sycomore to see Jesus Christ, and asked Jesus to visit his home and christ accepted. Jesus stayed at his home fore aday.In recognition to his visit by Jesus Christ this man cortributed half his wealth to the poors , And Jesus christ said to him ' this day your house has been salvation ' "
