Nebo a city mentioned in the bible as the place where Moses was granted a view of the promised land that he would never enter.
Cotinue to the baptismal site of Jesus Christ (Bethany beyond Jordan).John the Baptist (pbuh) prepared the way for the arrival of the Messiah, and John's ministry itself marked the beginning of the preaching of "the gospel of the Kingdom of God" (Luke 16:16).
