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).
10Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.
11 · This verse (above)
12And you should not have looked on the day of your brother, on the day of his misfortune, nor rejoiced over the sons of Judah on the day of their ruin, nor made your mouth large on the day of distress.
