Dear Friends,
Chanukkah and Christmas are over, but the new year has just begun!
Biblical Productions wants to take the opportunity to wish you and all of your team a very healthy, happy and prosperous year 2011! We finished a fabulous and exciting year in 2010, which allowed us to travel our amazing country from north to south and to shoot some great shows with terrific hosts.

Filming at Mount Karkom |
Once again, we were amazed that this little place seems to forever produce new, exciting filming locations. Our favourite location for this year is Mount Karkom, located on the border to Egypt in the middle of a military training zone. This does not have to worry anyone, because once the permit is secured, one can travel safe and sound into spectacular desert landscape which provides much food for thought… is Mount Karkom the long-sought after Mountain of God? What is this stone carving that is found in the middle of nowhere depicting ten stone tablets resembling the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments?
 Mount Karkom is indeed a mountain that should spark our interest for further investigation! It is a mountain which has been known as a sacred site for thousands of years, a landmark clearly visible from Jordan and from Egypt. It sits on the route of the Exodus and was most likely known by Moses. It is an accessible mountain, and at the bottom the remains of an altar and a sacrificial stone built exactly as told in the Bible have been found. An ancient well, the most important source for survival in the desert, is located nearby.
We invite you to come and see and decide for yourself! Old Bedouin graves tucked into the surrounding hills give the place just the right tick of mystery that is needed to make this the hottest lcation for 2011!
With best wishes from Israel,
Biblical Productions
