Jerusalem
WHAT HAPPENED HERE
Biblical story
Jerusalem became David’s capital, housed the temple, received prophetic warnings, and formed the setting for Jesus’ final week, resurrection appearances, and Pentecost.
WHY IT MATTERS
Place in the Bible’s story
Few places carry as many biblical themes: kingship, worship, judgment, sacrifice, salvation, resurrection, and mission.
THEN & NOW
Understanding the location
The modern city contains layers from many eras; individual traditional sites must be evaluated according to historical and archaeological evidence.
