"The lure of nostalgia and how the urge to look backward can turn a person into a pillar of salt. And yet…how hard it is to leave a place (or person) you love, even when you know you can't stay. (About Lot's wife, Genesis 19)"

Of meeting in the night, and parting after day

Of early morning light to wash our sins away

Of glasses raised and emptied and of corners in the dark

Of drawing back our arrows and of aiming at the mark

Of windows that don’t open and doors that never close

Of putting on our costumes and taking off our clothes

Of falling in, and falling out, and falling in again

And dancing at the Minaret ’til 2:30 am

Farewell, farewell, I loved you well, but now it’s time to part

And though we made a kind of hell, to leave you breaks my heart

For who were you and who was I, and where did we both go

If I could have just one more night, maybe I could know

JERUSALEM POST STAFF: Earthquake reported near Dead Sea area

Associates for Scriptural Knowledge: The Dead Sea was once "The Lake of the Fire," and it is destined again to become that same "Lake of Fire" at the time of Christ's second advent. The Dead Sea east of Jerusalem is the Lake of Fire mentioned in the Book of Revelation. Note this: All the streams of Edom flow into the Dead Sea. Since the streams of Edom (which are in the same general region) will become burning pitch, and fire and brimstone will rain down on the heathen at the great shaking against Gog and his forces (Ezekiel 38:19–22), there will be a great conflagration from heaven around the Dead Sea. Christ said there will also be darkness over Jerusalem (Matthew 24:29; 2 Thesalonians 1:7–8). It is primarily the smoke that comes from the re-igniting of the Dead Sea that causes the sun, moon, and stars to be darkened. The prophecies actually consign the whole of the rift valley east and south of Jerusalem to a fiery judgment. And thankfully, the Bible teaches that all of God's people will be able to escape (as did Lot) this wrath of God's vengeance to come (1 Thessalonians 5:9).
