Saviors and How Long to Jerusalem

I'm through paragraph 270 now of the Life. Josephus calls himself a benefactor and "savior" twice in this section, meaning that he has protected and promoted the health of Galilee.

In 269 he indicates that you could get to Jerusalem from Galilee in three days if you went through Samaria.

    Thanks for doing these, Ken, and for drawing our attention here from your QT blog.
