Looking from the synagogue toward what may be Peter's house in the background, covered by a
modern structure. There is some speculation that the house in the foreground may have been
Yeshua's. (Consider: was Yeshua a poor man? The wise men who visited him in his childhood
didn't bring just a few baubles. They were coming to pay homage to a KING!)
