This documentary chronicles the history of Jerusalem, showing the various contributions made by religious groups that have made he city what it is today. The first hour deals mainly with ancient history, and the second half focuses on modern history of the reconstitution of the Jewish state.
The existence of David and Solomon is hardly proven, and even if they were historical they would have been petty bandit chieftains who raided trade caravans and farming villages, not stately emperors ruling over millions of subjects from atop bejeweled thrones. Of Ramses, Kublai Khan, Justinian, Hatshepsut, Pachacutic, Caesar, Hannibal, Xerxes, Leonidas, and Alexander we have innumerable monuments, coins, and inscriptions, yet there is NO contemporary mention of the biblical United Monarchy.
@76BlueLions Do not forget that Salomon died infmously for disobey God for having many wives who dove him away from the lws of God. So if you take salomon for exmple, you gonna share his punishment. My friend you example is Jesus, the faithful one , the Good sherperd!
Nope. You are not a king with a need to cement alliances by marriage. Remember that Solomon's reign was the last of his undivided kingdom. The curse of his sins and their influence on his heirs led directly to the disintegration of public morality and religion. That led to the destruction of first the northern and then the southern kingdoms which had both fallen into idolatry. You have much to learn. I hope your capacity to learn is sufficient to the task.
I have A question for God, since Kind Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines I guess so can I, right? Was King Solomon an Adulterous man? And if not then no one else can be called one either.
Jerusalem the eternal city. It will be the place where Messiach, Yeshua, reigns forever and ever, even in the New heavens and the New earth. The New Jerusalem shall come down from heaven. Alleluia! Amen
@davidsegun who knows. Don't they say he works in mysterious ways?
