 Walls were vital for the protection of ancient cities. When Jerusalem was overrun by the Babylonians, the task at hand upon Israel’s return was to rebuild the wall of the holy city.

 When the Children of Israel crossed the Jordan and settled in Canaan, the temptation to worship idols would be ever with them.

 Many Christians are fluent in the language of Ashdod.
