Three times a year worshipers would travel up to the Jerusalem, the CITY ON A HILL, for the festivals. Over the years, a songbook developed that served as the pilgrims’ traveling songs. Psalms 120-134 are called "The Psalms of Ascent.” These are the songs the Jews sang as they ascended to Jerusalem and will be our theme as we travel together for a transformational trip to the land where Jesus walked.
Jameed literally "hardened" is a Jordanian food consisting of hard dry yogurt made fromgoat's milk.The yogurt is kept in a fine woven cheesecloth to make a thick yogurt. Salt is added daily to thicken the yogurt even more and the outside of the yogurt-filled cheesecloth is rinsed with water to allow any remaining whey to seep through. After a few days of salting the yogurt, it becomes very dense and it can be removed from the cheesecloth and shaped into round balls. It is then set to dry for a few days. It is also often referred to as "rock cheese". This hardened cheese is then used as a base for many dishes including the Jordanian national dish Mansaf - Lamb cooked in Jemeed sauce with rice.
