| This 19th-century engraving depicts tourists visiting Jacob's well at Shechem. Shechem was a considerable town of the Amorites. The land which Jacob bought in Shechem was the first piece of property owned by the chosen family in the promised land of Canaan. It was near this well, reportedly dug by Jacob himself, that he built an altar to God. Click here to enlarge. |
