Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Episode: Lebanon.

Lebanon is a country in Western Asia of the Asian continent. To its north and east is Syria, to the south Bordered by Israel and to the west by the Mediterranean Sea and the island of Cyprus.

Lebanon is mentioned 75 times in the Old Testament. Moreover, the name Cedar (Lebanis Tree) is also mentioned 75 times in the Old Testament.

It is said that God has planted this cedar tree with his own hands. That is why Cedars are called God's oak trees and for the same reason Lebanon is called God's country on Earth.

The palace of Solomon, the King of Israel and Prophet of Muslims, was built of Lebanese cedars, marble and timber.

It is the only city in the world whose name has remained the same for the past four thousand years.

Lebanon is the only Arab and Asian country with virtually no desert. Lebanon has been known as the most popular country on earth since ancient times.

The Biblical city of Byblos is located in Lebanon. According to Christianity, Jesus Christ performed his first miracles in Sidon, Lebanon.

Here he miraculously turned water into the wine. Lebanon's capital Beirut is called Phoenix City. Beirut has been destroyed 7 times since ancient times and rebuilt 7 times. The original inhabitants of Lebanon are called Phoenicians.

The Phoenicians were followers of the Canaanite religion, worshiping the gods and goddesses Baal, Astarte, and Melkert.

There were huge temples to these three gods and goddesses in ancient Beirut and various parts of Lebanon.

Canaanite religious priests could perform various forms of magic and miracles. They could make any substance move with the gesture of their eyes, change the flow of river water, they could even read people's minds.

The Phoenician priestly community received these powers as a blessing from these three gods and goddesses.
