Where is Petra located in relation to Jerusalem?
Petra is located southeast of Jerusalem, specifically east and south of the city. This places Petra east and south of Jerusalem, confirming the corrected direction from an earlier misstatement of southwest to southeast. Thus, the correct relationship is southeast, not southwest.
In the transcript, Les corrects his earlier slip, changing southwest to southeast because they are going down toward Petra. He states that Petra is east and south of Jerusalem, meaning it lies southeast. This correction clarifies the geographic relationship between Petra and Jerusalem.
