The city of Jerusalem was established 3000 years ago, though its roots go back further. King David standing atop his palace, King Solomon establishing the 1st Jewish Temple and King Hezekiah fortifying the city against impending attack - these kings and their people witnessed some of the greatest and most traumatic moments in Jewish history. The remnants of these times can still to be seen in the city today. 

 

Yet the story of the city is not just one for the history books, but rather a platform for the thoughts, prayers and motivations for a people across the millennia. Exploring the ancient ruins of the city today is to truly understand the roots of the Jewish people and to open a window into the Jewish future.
