Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu speaks passionately about the city of Hebron, saying: “The roots of the nation of Israel are inherent in the stories of our fathers … Abraham made his home in Hebron thousands of years ago, paying full price for the Cave of Machpelah and its surroundings. This acquisition was the beginning of the eternal bond forged between our nation and its birthplace. Hebron also became the burial place of our Patriarchs and Matriarchs. It is in Hebron that David established his monarchy, even before Jerusalem…  Our deep bond to Hebron – as the destination for Jewish pilgrims and in the longing of prayer – was never disconnected and never ended.” Learn about the significance of Hebron from Biblical times through today with a fascinating FREE eBook.
