A Day with the Summer Seminar
June 30, 2003

Caesarea Amphitheater
Bet Shearim
The sixth day of the Israel Seminar started with a visit to the amphitheater in Caesarea on the way up to the northern parts of Israel. In addition to hearing the history from Steve Israel, the tour educator, the participants were treated to hearing the musical talents of Judith Golden, Joel Greenman both from Chicago and Dina Golan, our website assistant, who against the backdrop of the Mediterranean, tested the acoustics of ancient architecture with the singing of "Eli, Eli" and "Oseh Shalom". Next stop en route was "Beit Shearim", the seat of the Sanhedrin and dwelling place of Rabbi Yehuda Hanassi. The participants enjoyed some Melton learning with Haim Aronovitz before getting back on the bus to Safed for the evening. The participants are enjoying learning on-site and bringing together their two years of Melton studies. As Fred Mannis from Wilmington, DE, a first time visitor to Israel said, "This seminar has succeeded beyond all expectations at combining the melton curriculum with Israel, the living classroom".
