Location

1. Jerusalem is in central Israel, about 33 miles (53 km.) east of Tel Aviv and the Mediterranean Sea.

 

2. It’s situated at an altitude of 2,600 ft. (800 m.) above sea level and is one of the highest cities in Israel.

 

3. It’s located on a well-protected mountain, making it hard for enemy forces to capture it.

 

4. Jerusalem rests primarily upon bedrock, so everything was well preserved.

 

5. Jerusalem is the Old Testament, Mount Moriah.

Historical Background

 

1. Jerusalem means “City of Peace.”

 

2. It’s mentioned over 500 times in the Bible.

 

3. It’s first mentioned as the city in which King Melchizedek, King of Salem (Jerusalem) lived (Gen. 14:17). Melchizedek was a figure of Christ as he had neither beginning of days or end of life.
Hebrews 7:1: For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham as he was returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, 2 to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace.

 

4. Jerusalem is the special dwelling place of God on this earth.
Psalms 76:2: His tent is in Salem, his dwelling place in Zion.
Psalm 135:21: Praise be to the LORD from Zion, to him who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD.

Faith Lesson from Jerusalem

 

1. Jerusalem has played a key role as the center of God’s dwelling place and ministry on this earth.

 

2. It will be the place Christ returns to in power and great glory at the end of the Great Tribulation Period. Believers will return with Him at this event. Will you be coming with him in glory or be judged by Him when He comes?

 

3. Christ will reign over all the earth in Jerusalem during the Millennial Reign. Will you be among those who reign with Him?

 

4. God will create a New Jerusalem, His new eternal dwelling place on the new earth. Those who are followers of Christ will have the privilege of living in or visiting this new city forever. Are you saved, and will you be in heaven, where the New Jerusalem will be?
