Way of the Patriarchs דרך האבות

The ancient road along the ridge of the central hill country, from Be'er Sheva through Hebron, Bethlehem and Jerusalem to Shechem and north toward the Galilee. Many of the stories of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob take place along it. Route 60 follows much the same line today.
