Although no one book can ever pack thousands of years of history and thousands of pages of religious texts related to the city of Jerusalem into one, this book provides an excellent overview that will make you appreciate why Jews, Christians and Muslims continue to say “Jerusalem in OURs”.

 

And (remember) when it was said to them: "Dwell in this town (Jerusalem) and eat there from wherever you wish, and say, (O Allah) forgive our sins; and enter the gate prostrate (bowing with humility). We shall forgive you your wrong-doings. We shall increase (the reward) for the good-doers."(Quran: 7: 161)

 

It was on that occasion that the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your descendants I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the Great River (the Euphrates), the land of the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”(Genesis)

I will set your boundaries from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the River; all who dwell in this land I will hand over to you to be driven out of your way. (Exodus)

 

This the seal of the Knights Templars. They were the military force that were part of the Crusades, when they attacked the Holy Land to take Jerusalem from the Muslims.

“Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaq (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been  given to Musa (Moses) and 'Îsa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)."(Quran – 2:136)


“The purpose of Christians United For Israel (CUFI) is to provide a national association through which every pro-Israel church, parachurch organization, ministry or individual in America can speak and act with one voice in support of Israel in matters related to Biblical issues.” (CUFI)

 

Church of Holy Sepulcher was where Umer Al-Khattab was offered to pray by Bishop Sophronius, the Patriarch of Jerusalem. However, Umer didn't pray here but prayed at the nearby location where Masjid Umer was eventually built.
