One of the exceptionally interesting examples of a living biblical tradition, maintained by Christian, Muslim and Jewish pilgrims for over sixteen hundred years, is the history of St. Samuel monastery on the Mount of Joy. The shrine was founded in the Byzantine period, but its heyday falls on the period of the Crusades. It was from here, after the murderous journey, that the troops of the First Crusade saw Jerusalem for the first time. The knights were followed by more and more pilgrims. On the hill, called Mons Gaudii, the Premonstratensians built their monastery, which in time became a real pilgrimage center. Based on the preserved traces, the author reconstructs the Christian chapters of the history of Nabi Samuel. He recalls people, events and traditions related to it, and also the accounts of pilgrims coming here.Christians left the Mons Gaudii probably at the end of the 12th century. Worship of the prophet Samuel were taken over by Muslims and Jews. For the latter the Tomb of Prophet Samuel became one of the most important places of pilgrimage, in some periods even more important than Jerusalem itself. There were numerous disputes and conflicts about holding control over this place, there were even bloody battles. In 1967 this place was taken by the Israeli army. Over time, a national park was created in the area around the mosque, in the mosque itself was established a place of prayer for Jews, and a synagogue in the tomb crypt. A slightly forgotten sanctuary began to warm up emotions anew.

In the infancy narrative, Matthew the evangelist describes specific places associated with the earthly life of Jesus: Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Egypt, Ramah, and Nazareth. These places show Jesus and allow for deeper and more accurate descriptions of the Christology of the Gospel. Bethlehem is the place of the birth and worship of the Messiah. For this reason, the small place is exalted, in opposition to Jerusalem, the place of death of the Messiah, which is deprived of its respect and rank in the Old Testament. The latter town embodies people who are reserved and hostile to Jesus. Meanwhile, Egypt and Ramah act as subjects: Egypt is the point to which Holy Family arrives and later leaves, repeating the journey of Israel, albeit in a perfect way. Ramah refers to the matriarch Rachel and her weeping over the Chosen People, who have rejected the Messiah. The primary city in Matthew’s infancy narrative is Nazareth, which describes Jesus and points to his messianic dignity and dedication to God.

Mateusz, redagując Ewangelię dzieciństwa głoszącą orędzie o narodzeniu Mesjasza, wplótł w nią konkretne miejsca związane z ziemskim życiem Jezusa: Betlejem, Jerozolimę, Egipt, Rama i Nazaret. Te miejsca ukazują Jezusa, pozwalają głębiej i dokładniej oddać chrystologię Ewangelii. Betlejem to miejsce narodzenia i oddania pokłonu zapowiedzianemu Mesjaszowi. Mała miejscowość ze względu na narodziny Syna Boga zostaje wywyższona, w przeciwieństwie do Jerozolimy, która jest miejscem śmierci Zbawiciela i dlatego zostaje pozbawiona przynależnego jej w Starym Testamencie szacunku i rangi. Stolica uosabia ludzi zamkniętych i wrogich Jezusowi. Egipt i Rama pełnią funkcje przedmiotowe. Egipt jest punktem, do którego wędruje Święta Rodzina i z którego wychodzi, powtarzając wędrówkę Izraela, ale w sposób doskonały. Rama odsyła do żony Jakuba Racheli i jej płaczu nad narodem wybranym, który odrzuca posłanego Mesjasza. Pierwszoplanowym miastem w Ewangelii dzieciństwa według Mateusza jest Nazaret, miejscowość określa Jezusa i wskazuje na Jego godność mesjańską i poświęcenie Bogu.
