The Library

"After that we went to the Library which was built with 25 talents, donated by a patron. Amazing what a talent could buy! The building was reconstructed in the 1970s by some Austrians."

We were really amazed by what 25 talents could buy. An entire library made of marble in the middle of a very important town. That makes a huge impact when you see this building, which is now just a shoddy skeleton of it's former glory, and relate that to Jesus' parable of the talents.
