  • Comment from author about the poem: JERUSALEM ~ An amazing City where three of the World's largest religions meet face to face ~ every day ! It is over 5000 years old and was te City chosen by Israel's King David to be his Capital ~ set on a hill. It was here that King Solomon built the magnificent Temple to the Glory of Jehovah. It was here that JESUS was crucified ~ buried and Rose Again from the dead and 40 days later Ascended into Heaven as our Eternal Lord & Saviour at the right hand of GOD ! It has been a place of conflict in recent days and we are all exhorted to PRAY for the PEACE of JERUSALEM ! I walked today where Jesus walked in days of long ago # Along the little lanes He knew with tender steps and slow # Those little hills they had not changed # A sweet peace fille the air # I walked today where JESUS walked # And felt His presence there ! AMEN Comments welcome ~ Spiritual Love to All ~ BRIAN XOX

        i used to live 20 minutes of Jerusalem ... other names of Jerusalem in Hebrew mean: whole, unification, Zion... yes many Jewish prayers add Next Year in Jerusalem.
        May peace manifest in Jerusalem - the heart of humanity and to Earth... AMEN
        hugs and love Brian

              No I am afraid not, I have hardly been out of the UK, my wife is not a good traveller and we certainly couldn't go now as I couldn't go on my own as I need to be with my wife as her health is not too good.
