About “Jerusalem” in Hebrew
Jerusalem is the holiest city in Judaism, the site of the ancient Temples, and the eternal capital of Israel. Mentioned over 600 times in the Hebrew Bible, it has been the spiritual center of the Jewish people for over 3,000 years. Jews around the world pray facing Jerusalem, and the Passover seder ends with 'L'shanah haba'ah b'Yerushalayim'—Next year in Jerusalem.
