To followers of Jesus and The Bible, it is a very holy site, as Jesus was baptized there by John the Baptist and an abundance of biblical battles have been waged there. Millions of pilgrims make the journey to bathe in the Jordan as their deity did. The Jordan is also a major source of water for Syria, Israel, Jordan, and Lebanon, one of few bodies of water left in the region.
