Jordan

Portions of the Biblical narrative took place in the towns and the country side that now makes up Jordan.
Bethany Beyond the Jordan where John the Baptist preached and where Jesus Christ was baptized is located on the Jordan side of the Jordan river.

Also, Mount Nebo where Moses viewed the Land of Canaan is located in western Jordan.
In northern Jordan there is a small creek where an angel met and wrestled with the patriarch Jacob.
The rock struck by Moses to bring forth water and the patriarch Aaron’s tomb are both in southern Jordan.
The ruins of the fortress of the Ammonites are on a mountain overlooking downtown Amman. This is the site where King David had Bathsheba’s husband Uriah the Hittite killed.
