Jerusalem, by the way, is mentioned 669
times in the Hebrew Bible. Zion is
mentioned 158 times. All the mentions of
Jerusalem come close to 1,000 times.
Everywhere where we are in the world as
Jews, even living in diaspora, we're
praying towards Israel. In Israel, we're
praying towards Jerusalem. In Jerusalem,
we're praying towards the old city.
[music]
In the old city, we're praying towards
right behind me over here, where the
gold dome is today. Not because we're
praying to the gold dome,
but that is the spot where the binding
of Isaac story took place in the book of
[music] Genesis.
That is the place that God chose as the
nexus of spiritual meeting place between
the metaphysical and the physical. The
world prayers ascend from there.
