High Priest and Levites Officiating at the Samaritan Passover, Mt. Gerizim
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "Seven days before the feast, in the early morning before daylight, the entire congregation of Samaritans gather at the door of their Synagogue in Nabulus. Thence they proceed in pilgrimage up the mountain, having with them lambs for sacrifice. For a week they encamp on the elevated plain near the summit of Gerizim.
For more than 2,300 years, the Samaritans have maintained the Mosaic sacrifice of the passover on Mount Gerizim, and have affirmed that this mountain and not Jerusalem (John 4:20) was the place chosen by God for the central sanctuary of Israel."
