For thousands of years, the historic road has carried pilgrims and other travelers through the heart of the Holy Land
Route 60 is a concrete and asphalt road that cuts 146 miles through rocky desert and historic ruins in the Promised Land, connecting Jerusalem with Nazareth on the north, and with Beersheba on the south. People long ago would travel that ancient road to reach Jerusalem for three feasts each year. The biblical spine of the Holy Land, sometimes referred to as the “Path of the Patriarchs,” has been the site of frequent unrest and violence, but also the site of many familiar Bible stories from the Old and New Testaments.
This month TBN and Fathom Events will release a film about the historic road, Route 60: The Biblical Highway. The movie is a modern-day TripTik that uses visual techniques, graphics and maps to bring to life the history of the Holy Land along that famous route. Two familiar figures in American politics will lead viewers along the storied highway: David Friedman, former U.S. Ambassador to Israel, and former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Friedman is Jewish and Pompeo is Christian; together, the two weave a historic narrative of the Old and New Testaments, at the sites where the classic stories actually occurred.
