To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A dignified ruin containing beautiful fragments of cornices and columns matks this spot, which is Wholly de- serted, and seems to feel the full force of the woe pronounced upon it and Bethsaida (Matthew xi. 20-22). The road up to Safed is as bad as any thing called a road can be: — a steep climb of two hours over sharp stones, among tall weeds and briers — ^but it is cheered by backward views of the lake, which seems to be nearer and nearer as you leave it behind, until at Safed it looks from e...nd to end right under your eye. The situation of this old town is superb, com- manding, from the ruined citadel, a full view of the lake, a fine prospect of the Mediterranean, and a glance of Merom, the upper lake of the Jordan, about five miles long and three broad, and some ten miles north of Tiberias. There is no certainty of the existence of any city here in Christ's own day, although from its conspicuousness from the Mount of Beatitudes (Hattin) some have wished to believe it the " city on a hill " which " can not be hid," which was in Christ's eye and the people's when he uttered the parable.
