Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives

Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "This view taken from the bell tower of the German Church of the Redeemer, looks due east toward the Mount of Olives. While the Biblical expression is "Go up to Jerusalem," and Jerusalem is on a high elevation, it is not the highest in the vicinity. The mount of Olives overlooks Jerusalem being 250 feet higher than the Temple area, or 126 feet above Mount Zion."
