This essay gave me chills. I have read it several times. I have never been to Jerusalem, your description allowed me to close my eyes and imagine how the city was built by OUR ANCESTORS. Thank you

Every time I walked the streets of Old Jerusalem, the hair of my neck stood. You feel our history.

Extend an invitation to Prime Minister Carney.

Let him verify the completion of the “preconditions “.

Maybe the PM will achieve maturity beyond his vaulted “mechanisms “.

Stirring piece of writing - makes history come to life! We Jews have so much history that a life time of study cannot suffice. More Please!!!

Fabulous article, Yonah! Maps would be helpful to better understand the geography. What would be a good source, in your opinion? Thanks

Fantastic, fabulous history. What is in the ground, on the ground can not be disputed. Jerusalem is the ancient and eternal capital of Israel and the Jewish people.

G-d bless Israel and my brothers and sister there.
