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).
5Look, when it was whole, it was not made into anything useful; how much less when the fire has consumed it and it is charred, can it still be made into anything useful!”
6 · This verse (above)
7And I will set my face against them; from the fire they have come out, and the fire will consume them; and you will know that I am YHWH when I set my face against them.
