[Jerusalem Kitchen] Station 12: Jesus dies on the Cross
Though the word “Jerusalem” literally means “city of peace,” modern day Jerusalem is a deeply divided city. For billions of worshippers across the globe – whether Jewish, Christian or Muslim – Jerusalem is a sacred and holy space. For Muslims the al-Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock compound in the heart of the Muslim Quarter in Jerusalem’s Old City is considered the third most holy after Mecca and Medina. Jews consider Jerusalem the site from which the creation of the world emanated. For Christians, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed to be built on the site on which Jesus was crucified, and other sites significant in the life of Jesus make Jerusalem a sacred city.
Yet, the Old City of Jerusalem, even with Calvary at its center, finds no peace. Christ have mercy.
