Locations in Lesotho
In this category you will find many of the potential Biblical locations inside or just on the border of Lesotho. Lots of ground has been covered here, we live close enough to be able to go in and out relatively undeterred. Makes for great research discoveries. Much more to come


Levi dwells in Lesotho
So then, we are still in it and sticking to Lesotho. We are not leaving the confines of these Holy Places. We are staying put. There is just to much here to go through. Through all these years we have been active, writing and forming hundreds of articles on just the great number Biblical of locations in Lesotho alone. We have published maybe 1/3 of what we have in storage. We have enough of them now. It is time to share. We will let them come to life. Even if 80% of them are

Garden of Gethsemane in Lesotho
Hello family ! Brothers and Sisters in the Faith! There is only a brief article prepared this time. Because as of now, there is not to much current historical data and or remarks, also I have not been to this location yet. However this location needs to get out there in the same thread of recent Biblical Lesotho areas in southern Africa. The Garden of Gethsemane, the place that was said to be at the foot of the Mount of Olives in the Eastern Parts of Jerusalem. If you turn th

Hung on a Willow Tree in Lesotho
Or alternate title, Ha Lehata -The Place of the Skull? Now in the search for locations that are Biblical, for those that are interested, if the site or area is under a banner say like a Heritage Site, like the Maloti Drakensberg World Heritage sites. Or you can look at the fact that in Africa in general you will find other types of heritage sites and especially, Unesco sites. These are hints from SoNiNi Himself. Because guess what, not all these Holy Places are meant to be tr

Jerusalem in Lesotho
Or alternate title: The city of Holy Peace in Lesotho. This is potentially a very important article. And we think that if one starts to ask a simple question, is Jerusalem in Lesotho? Many other things will follow. So, is it possible? Yes it is very possible. A little bit of suggestible mapping being done in this one. We will take the risk and get the theory out there. Because as several locations do fit very well when combining them. They line up nicely. Especially all the G

Ararat & Noahs ark 2.0
Now anyone who has taken the drive, from say Kokstad in the KZN to Barkly East in the Eastern Cape, you will be going through some of the most spectacular landscapes that you will ever see. Mountains rising high up on your right hand side. Going through lovely towns like Nqanqarhu (used to be Maclear), Ugie, Elliot, then Barkly East, and later on Lady Grey. You can see this rise of impenetrable mountains, driving through them on the roads made on top of old Biblical travel ro

Ramah & Moorosi
Now we have suggested before that this location of Ramah could have been within the borders of Lesotho, seen as the word has ancient Hebrew (Sotho/Tswana) roots in the meaning and sense off heights or high places. Lesotho is such a place, but there are other high places also in the area of Southern Africa, Botswana and Namibia included. And speaking of high places, we will look closer into the story of BaPhuthi Chief Moorosi (d.1879) and his stronghold setup in Lesotho as an

The River Jordan in Lesotho
Or alternate title, Baptised in The River Jordan in Lesotho. Now then if the Jordan River we know today as the Orange River, and its tributaries - the joining rivers - Vaal River and Caledon River (called fords in our beloved Scriptures). If these Rivers did indeed make out parts of THE border of The Promised Land with most of the Tribes living on one side and the rest on the other. Working effectively as both a border and divider of land, having respectively 9 and 1/2 half T

Nazareth in Lesotho?
We have long known about this location, because well, we have been there. And the area is quite simply stunning and somewhat cold because of the altitude you will find yourself at. So there is indeed a place called Nazareth in Lesotho, and it is close to both Cana and Bethlehem. Now looking back in time, add some more rainfall, these areas would be more lush and fruitful, it does become more likely that this could have been uMsindisis backyard. What you will find today, is a

Cana in Lesotho?
Now we do have several Biblical names that have kept popping up during these many years of research. And many of these we find within the borders of the landlocked country of Lesotho, inside South Africa. Are they likely to be the places in question? Well it gets difficult to fit some Tribes, and also one has to take into account the distance to Capernaum and Jerusalem, so as we will see some of them are difficult to place on the map. Still, we will include them for edificati

The Resting River Jordan
There is a River mentioned in the Bible called Sambatyon (Sabbation), this particular River was the point where a part of the Ten Tribes were exiled by the Assyrian King, Shalmaneser. Meaning beyond that River they would not pass, and the Bantus inability to pass was intricately involved with the Sabbath. This River, we and many others believe was none other than what is today called Orange River, or Oranjie by current occupants/rulers of parts of the Promised Land, the Boers

Mount Moriah in Lesotho?
Next up in Biblical Locations, after years of research we believe we have located The Land of Moriah and possible candidates for Mount Moriah. By the looks of it, may very well be in the Highland Mountains of western Lesotho. Now, close to Lesotho and inside the country you will find interesting names such as Nazareth, Roma, and in the area now called Free State, there is Bethlehem. These are historically very central places mentioned in the Bible, which may or may not be the
