Tel Shiloh
The path to Tel Shiloh, the Israelites’ religious center before Jerusalem, reveals a beautiful view of the valley where the town’s young women came out dancing (Judges 21:15-23). You’ll stand at the exact place on the mound where some scholars believe the Tabernacle stood and where Hannah prayed for a son – Samuel – and where he later served. From Shiloh, the Ark was taken into battle and lost to the Philistines. At the Shiloh Visitors Center, you’ll see a model of the Tabernacle and an engaging audiovisual presentation
