The rabbi's say that when God created the world there were ten portions of beauty as a part of creation and nine of them were given to Jerusalem. This is a stunning city. In many ways it is a crucible for people learning to live together, for there are a mix of cultures here like no where else in the world. Obviously it works better at some times than others. Sadly, we too often know only the failed times. See it's beauty in these images...
Jerusalem is beautiful not because of its gold domed buildings, but because of its people and passion, history and heritage.
