The 79-year-old pope was making a 27-hour stop in Jordan on his tour of Old and New Testament sites that will take him to Israel and the Palestinian territo ries.

Upon arriving from Rome, John Paul went immediately to Mount Nebo, where tradition says the prophet Moses first saw the Promised Land after wan dering for 40 years in the desert. He stood for five minutes, peering at the Dead Sea, Jericho and the hills of Jerusalem through the afternoon haze. “Our gaze directed toward Jerusalem, let us lift up our prayers to Almighty God, for all the people living in the land of promise, Jews, Muslims, Christians,” he said. “Bestow upon all who live here the gift of true peace, justice, fraternity.” The pope was welcomed in jordan by King Abdullah II along with Christian and Muslim clerics.

With the silent laying of a wreath in homage to Mohandas Gandhi on Tuesday morning, President Clinton was planning to let the imagery speak for itself. But after that was coming a series of meetings at which Clinton hoped to persuade reluctant Indian leaders to ban nuclear testing and cool tensions with Pakistan in their bitter dispute over the Himalayan territory of Kashmir. Formally opening the first visit in 22 years by an American president, Clinton was set for a pomp-filled welcome at Rashtrapati Bhavan, the presidential palace that was built as a grand estate for British viceroys in the years of colonial rule.
