During biblical times, the Mount of Olives was covered with ancient olive trees and is one mountain north of Mt. Zion with breathtaking views of the Old City, the City of David, and the Kidron Valley.
It was there that Jesus encouraged His disciples and gave them their instructions after He would be crucified (Matthew 24).
Jesus spent the night there before His arrest, in the gardens at Gethsemane. It was on this mount where He wept over Jerusalem. “When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it.” (Luke 19:41)
Just below the Mount of Olives, close to the Church of all Nations, there is the place where Christian tradition says that Mary, the mother or Jesus was buried. The Church of all Nations is a Roman Catholic Church where it is believed that Jesus prayed before His arrest.
At the bottom of the Mount of Olives is an ancient olive garden. Olive trees do not have rings and so their age cannot be precisely determined, but scholars estimate their age to be anywhere between one and two thousand years old.
During the time of the First and Second Temples, the Mount of Olives was the place where the high priest used to slaughter and burn the 'Red Cow', whose ashes purify those who are impure at the Temple. The Mount of Olives Jewish Cemetery began during the period of the First Temple, however the tombs that are there today are from the 16th century and on. It’s worthwhile considering that this mount is not only a geographical link between the desert and the fertile hills of Jerusalem - it is also the spiritual link between heaven and earth or life and death. Many people desire to be buried on the Mount of Olives where the Messiah is expected to arrive.
FROM THE SCRIPTURES
Zechariah chapter 14:
"4 In that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the south."
Matthew 24:
"3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, 'Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?' 4 And Jesus answered them, 'Take heed that no one leads you astray. 5 For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ', and they will lead many astray. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not alarmed; for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: 8 all this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs.'"

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered licensed tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this "calling" in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
