| Notes: |
Photograph is in a book with a description beneath ; printed description: "(Luke iv:5.)--The second Temptation of Christ is
represented in the Scriptures as taking place upon a high mountain, from which the devil could call the attention of our Savior
to all the kingdoms of the world. This mountain, upon which occurred the second Temptation, is over against Jericho and looking
directly over the Plain of Sodom and Gomorrah, and away to the mountains of Moab. At the time of the Temptation this whole
Plain of the Jordan, between the Dead Sea below and twenty miles above, was cultivated and kept like a garden. Herod had lived
here in great style and luxury. Cleopatra had come to this place for revelry, and it was doubtless one of the most beautiful
and attractive places in the world. The Mount of Temptation is a lonely height." Copyright year and photographer's name are
printed at the bottom of the photograph, along with "Franklin Co Eng-Chi." See 5223BAI/LVi141CAJS (Voyager # 359455)
