My Jerusalem: The Eternal City
Editat de Ilan Greenfielden Limba Engleză Hardback – oct 2017
Ever since King Solomon built the Holy Temple on Jerusalem's Temple Mount, Jews around the world have seen the holy city as the core of their lives. Jews from every continent on the globe have always prayed three times a day facing Jerusalem. Jews from Yemen, Ethiopia, and Lithuania; Jews from Morocco, Spain, India, Poland, and Russia. No matter where they are born, no matter where they die, all Jews have Jerusalem in common.
Jerusalem Day 2017 marks fifty years since the reunification of Jerusalem in 1967, allowing worshipers of all religions to freely worship and pray in their holy places for the first time in hundreds of years. In honor of this great anniversary, this unique photo essay brings together the thoughts and reminiscences of those who love the holy city.
MY JERUSALEM features a unique collection of photos by one of Israel's most recognized photographers, Ziv Koren. Here are the people of Jerusalem: the real, everyday people who live in Jerusalem; those who work in Jerusalem; those who worship in Jerusalem; and those who exercise their freedom to demonstrate in Jerusalem. This stunning book is a must-have for everyone whose heart beats to the rhythm of the world’s holiest city.
Features personal essays on Jerusalem by 36 personalities, among them:
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Reuven Rivlin, Education Minister Naftali Bennett, Mayor of Jerusalem Nir Barkat, Mike Huckabee, Professor Deborah Lipstadt, Dr. Ruth R. Wisse, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks Pastor John Hagee and many more.

Recenzii
Over the years, I have been a passionate collector of illustrated books about Jerusalem.
I consider my most recent acquisition, My Jerusalem: The Eternal City, edited by Ilan Greenfield with superb photography by Ziv Koren, published by Gefen Publishing to be by far the best photographic volume I have ever seen. The photographs, accompanied by brief essays from leading Jewish and non-Jewish personalities from all over the world, include some extraordinary and highly uplifting tributes.
I would strongly recommend the volume to all who love Jerusalem, Israelis and visitors alike – non-Jews as well as Jews
