Gerizim

Mount Gerizim is still claimed by the Samaritans to be the place where Israel should worship God. Members recognize only the Pentateuch among the Books of the Bible. Every year when they encamp on the Mount for the celebration of the Passover they carry their sacred Scroll of the Law in a solemn procession to the Holy Rock on the summit. The worshippers are clothed for the occasion in festal robes of white linen. In John iv,20 the Woman of Samaria said 'Our fathers worshipped in this mountain.' An early photograph.
