Jerusalem
Today: Old City of Jerusalem
A city in the hills of Judea, about 22 miles (35 km) west of the Dead Sea and 35 miles (55 km) east of the Mediterranean.
David took it and made it his city (2 Sam 5:7); Solomon built the temple there (1 Kgs 8:1). Jesus was presented there, and the apostles' witness began from it (Luke 2:22; Acts 1:8).
The context
11And all Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, so as not to listen to your voice; and there has been poured out on us the curse and the oath that is written in the law of Moses, the servant of Elohim, because we have sinned against him.
12 · This verse (above)
13As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us; yet we have not sought the favor of YHWH our Elohim, turning from our iniquities and gaining insight in your truth.
