How Mount-Moriah Shaped Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Jerusalem's History and its Modern Development
BY SHLOMO CESANA
Why Jerusalem?What makes one city a center of faith, conflict, and longing for thousands of years? How did a small hilltop settlement become a global city? And why has Jerusalem drawn empires and rulers, prophets and preachers, believers and tourists across generations
A Unique Approach
In The Story of Jerusalem, Shlomo Cesana explores the city’s exceptional status through his three areas of expertise: journalism, archaeology, and guiding. Together, these perspectives help explain how Jerusalem became one of the most influential and contested cities in history
