Trump in Israel: US President visits the Western Wall in Jerusalem

See a complete overview of the Western Wall, Western Wall Tunnels, Kotel (Hebrew name), Western Wall Tour, Temple Mount Platform, Southern Stairs, Wailing Wall, and more in Jerusalem. A very biblical, in-depth look at the holiest site in Judaism. Location 1. The Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall (because the Jews weep here during their prayers) is located on the western side of the Temple Mount. 2. The Western Wall Tunnel is accessed on the northern side of the Western Wall Plaza and runs north to the end of the Temple Mount Platform. Historical Background 1. When the Romans destroyed the temple in 70 AD, part of the western side of the Temple Mount Platform survived. For hundreds of years prior to 1967, people prayed in the small area of the wall that could be seen at that time. However, in 1967, following the Six-Day War, Israelis excavated below the ground level of the wall and found two more stone rows. They then cleared the area around the wall to create the Western Wall Plaza that visitors see today. 2. The Western Wall is part of the retaining wall, or support wall, that Herod the Great built in 19 BC when he enlarged the Temple Mount complex in order to accommodate a larger temple and Temple Mount area. It was a massive undertaking that required exceptional and sophisticated engineering. 3. Unlike many think, the Western Wall was not part of the wall of the temple King Herod Built. Places of Interest 1. In the Western Wall Plaza area, a walkway bridge can be seen that tourist use to access the Temple Mount. 2. The Western Wall Plaza is divided into two sections: a men’s and a women’s section. 3. The area close to the wall is considered a synagogue, so men must wear a head covering when entering the men’s section. 4. Most Jews do not enter on the Temple Mount for fear of unknowingly walking in the place where the Holy of Holies might have been. Plus, Muslims do not want them entering there as well. 5. The Western Wall Pla

Israel: Liberals clash with ultra-Orthodox Jews over Jerusalem's Western Wall

A trip to Jerusalem isn't complete without a pilgrimage to the Western Wall. Here's what you need to know before you go. Step 1: Know its Hebrew name Know the Wall’s Hebrew name -- the Kotel, which simply means the Wall. This is what everyone in Israel calls it. Tip Don't call the site "The Wailing Wall." Many people find the term offensive. Step 2: Understand its history Understand the history of the Western Wall. It’s located at the site of 2 ancient Jewish temples, both of which were destroyed -- the first by the Babylonians in 586 BCE, and the second by the Romans in 70 CE. The Western Wall was built in approximately 20 BCE around the Second Temple. Step 3: Know where it is Know where the Western Wall is located: in the Old City of Jerusalem at the foot of the Temple Mount. The area in front of the Wall, where visitors from around the world come to pray, is known as the Western Wall Plaza. It’s open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Tip Consider taking a Kotel tunnel tour, which takes you further along the wall than you’d otherwise be able to go. Step 4: Dress properly Dress properly. Men must wear a hat or other head covering; those who don’t have one are provided a free skullcap, called a kippah. Women must wear clothing that covers their shoulders and knees; they can borrow shawls at the entrance if need be. Shorts and jeans are not appropriate for anyone. Step 5: Behave appropriately Behave appropriately. Women are expected to pray in the section reserved for them, and are barred by law from reading aloud from the Torah and wearing prayer shawls. Smoking, picture-taking, and cellphone use is forbidden on Shabbat -- from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. Pets are not allowed into the Western Wall Plaza. Step 6: Leave a note Write a prayer on a tiny piece of paper and slip it into one of the Wall’s crevices; it’s a time-honored tradition. Because more than a million notes are left in the Wall each year, they’re collected t

The Rabbi of the Western Wall overlooks the of clearing of letters to make room for more

This ancient sight dating back to the 1st century BC is simply breathtaking. The adjacent temple was destroyed by Romans in 70 AD, and the wall became the main pilgrimage destination when the Jewish community came to lament the destruction of the temple. And thus it is also called the Wailing Wall or Kotel. For the Jews, this is the holiest site in the world. Pilgrims from all over the world come here to place a small paper with prayer or request into its cracks.

The 200-seat auditorium is the first Roman public structure ever discovered in the city. Buried for 1,700 years, building appears unfinished and likely comes from the second or third centuries AD. It may have been used for concerts, or as a meeting place for the city council.

Here's some footage from day 4 of our trip to Israel. We started the day by visiting the Israel Museum, where there was a massive model of first-century Jerusalem. After discussing some of the features of first-century Jerusalem, we headed to Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust museum and memorial. Then we spent some time at Machane Yehuda (a market area), before driving to the Western Wall, where a variety of Jews had gathered to sing, dance, pray, and weep. Once we left the Western Wall, we had a Sabbath meal with a Jewish family (though I didn't record it).

Wide of wall STORYLINE Thousands of prayer notes, some simply addressed to God, were removed from the stones of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem on Wednesday, ahead of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. Using wooden sticks, workers removed the pieces of paper from their crevices. The operation is carried out twice a year; before the Passover festival and at the Jewish New Year, in the autumn. Shmuel Rabinowitz, the Rabbi of the Western Wall called it a "special haven for prayers" and said "Jews and non-Jews" had left prayer notes there. Derl Crawford , a tourist from Mississippi, said it was a "wonderful thing" to witness the removal of all the prayer notes. Jewish religious practice forbids the destruction of any written material, so worn or damaged Torah scrolls, prayer books and other religious articles - such as the notes - are buried. ============================================

A senior leader of Canada's Jewish community says she is disappointed that Israel's government scrapped the plans for a mixed gender prayer area at the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

Tens of thousands of Jews visited the Western Wall (Kotel) in Jerusalem on Monday night, gathering to ask for forgiveness and mercy in Selichot prayers before the Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) fast despite - or in spite of - the tense security situation in the capital. As many as 100,000 people may have visited the Kotel throughout the night for the culmination of the penitentiary prayers, which ends some 40 days of prayer for Sephardic Jews and roughly two weeks for Ashkenazic Jews. The prayer drew a variety of people - men and women, children and the elderly, and observant and non-observant Jews. Both Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi David Lau and Sephardic Chief Rabbi Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef attended the service, as well as Kotel Rabbi Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, attended the services.

Eight stone courses of the Western Wall that had been buried under an 8-meter layer of earth were recently uncovered in excavations conducted by the Israel Antiquities Authority in the Western Wall Tunnels in Jerusalem. These stone courses, completely preserved, are built of massive stones and are outstanding in the quality of their construction. Furthermore, after the removal of this layer of soil, the archaeologists were surprised to discover that it covered the remnants of an extraordinary theater-like structure from the Roman period confirming historical writings that describe a theater near the Temple Mount. These exciting findings will be presented to the public during a conference titled New Studies in the Archaeology of Jerusalem and its Environs, which will take place at the Hebrew University. This year’s conference will mark 50 years of archaeology since the unification of the city. At a press conference this morning (Monday) beneath Wilson’s Arch in the Western Wall Tunnels, the stone courses and the amazing remnants of the theater were presented. Apparently, a great deal was invested in the construction of the theater which contained approximately 200 seats. The press conference was conducted with the participation of the Western Wall rabbi, Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, Israel Antiquities Authority director, Israel Hasson, Western Wall Heritage Foundation director, Mr. Mordechai (Suli) Eliav, Israel Antiquities Authority district archaeologist Dr. Yuval Baruch, and the excavation directors. From the very beginning of archaeological research in Jerusalem over 150 years ago, scholars have been seeking the public buildings mentioned in the historical sources. Particularly prominent among them, theaters or theater-like structures are mentioned. These descriptions are found in written sources from the Second Temple period (such as Josephus Flavius), and in sources from the period following the destruction of the Second Temple, when Jerusalem becam

Jewish law and custom prescribe ritual hand washing (Hebrew: נטילת ידיים‎, netilat yadayim in a number of situations According to traditional practice, Jews wash their hands in the following situations: Upon waking from sleep (known in Yiddish as נעגל וואַסער, negel vasser), poured out from a vessel three times, intermittently, over each hand. This washing is said to remove an evil spirit from one's fingers.[1] Before prayer.[2] After touching ones's private parts, or the sweat from one's body (excluding the face), or when one crops one's fingernails[3] Upon leaving a latrine, lavatory or bathhouse[3] Upon leaving a cemetery[3] Before eating bread. This only applies to bread made from one of the five chief grains (wheat, cultivated barley, spelt, wild barley,[a] and oats)[6] After eating a meal where the salt of Sodom was served at that table[7] (In some communities) washing the priests' hands, before they bless the people with the Priestly Blessing.[8] When, prior to eating, one dips a morsel of food within a liquid (e.g. water, honey, oil, etc.) which then clings to that morsel, with the one exception of fruits, seeing that they do not require hand washing.[9] Development of hand washing on bread 1890 illustration of laver in the Temple The most developed and, perhaps, important of these washings is the washing of hands before eating bread. Such washing of hands is called in Hebrew, netilat yadayim, meaning "the lifting up of the hands." It is looked upon with such rigidity, that those who willfully neglect its practice are said to make themselves liable to excommunication,[10] and bring upon themselves a state of scarcity,[11] and are quickly taken out of the world.[12] Hand washing in the Temple Ten brazen lavers are said to have served the priests in the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem, their function being merely for cleansing the hands and feet before they commenced their service.[13] In addition, the Mishnah records that priests were requ

A shtreimel (Yiddish: שטרײַמל‎, plural שטרײַמלעך shtraimlech) is a fur hat worn by many married Haredi Jewish men, particularly (although not exclusively) members of Hasidic Judaism, on Shabbat and Jewish holidays and other festive occasions.[1] In Jerusalem, the shtreimel is also worn by Litvak Jews (non-Hasidim who belong to the original Ashkenazi community of Jerusalem, also known as Perushim). The shtreimel is generally worn only after marriage, except in some Yerushalmi communities, where boys wear it from the age of bar mitzvah. There is much speculation surrounding the origin of the shtreimel. According to the Encyclop?dia Britannica, it is of Tatar origin.[2] Different theories hold that it is of Tatar, Turkish or Russian origin, but it is not possible to establish a clear chronology.[3] Some legends say that the initial reason for adopting the shtreimel was that the czar of the time decreed that the Jews must dress like the Gentiles.[citation needed] The shtreimel is comparable in construction to fur hats historically worn by Central European (Polish)[4][5] and Eastern European Russian boyar nobility.[citation needed] According to the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, the shtreimel comes from the costume of Polish nobility, the Gentiles

The Western Wall, Jerusalem - a visit the most important Jewish site

At the start of the Yom Kippur War, Uri Shachar received an encouraging message from a very unlikely source.

US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman joined Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu at a special candle-lighting ceremony at the Western Wall in Jerusalem Sunday evening, marking the beginning of the festival of Hanukkah. “Hanukkah is called the festival of light,” said Friedman. “Each day we increase with an additional candle the amount of light that comes from the Hanukkiyah. It is not just symbolic, it is also the sense of really illuminating the world. We illuminate the world with the values that we have in the Jewish nation, that we have in the United States with the Judeo-Christian values that are the foundation of both our two great countries.” “Twenty-two-hundred-years-ago, just behind me, the festival of Hanukkah began when the Maccabees purified the Temple and restored those great Judeo-Christian values from those who sought to destroy the Jewish people.” Netanyahu condemned the recent decision of the International Criminal Court in the Hague to investigate the Palestinian Authority’s allegations of war crimes in the 2014 Gaza war, and in the existence of Israeli towns in Judea and Samaria. “Twenty-two-hundred-years-ago, the Maccabees fought the war of liberation for the Jewish people and the Jewish faith against the anti-Semitic decrees of the Seleucid Greeks,” said Netanyahu. “They wanted to extinguish our faith, to stamp out our freedom, to drive us out of this land, to say we have no right to exist.” “We have fought against immeasurable odds, as no people has fought against throughout history. We crossed the abyss from extinction to survival, to independence, and now to a thriving democracy.” “And yet we find ourselves now in the beginning of the 21st century, in 2019, where the International Criminal Court, that should know otherwise, has set forth decrees that are just as anti-Semitic as the decrees of the Seleucid Greeks.” “They say that Jews do not have a right to settle in the Jewish homeland. They say that the Jews do not

Pope Francis on Monday prayed at Jerusalem's Western Wall, the holiest place where Jews can pray, as he continued his visit to the Middle East. He bowed his head as he touched the wall in the same gesture used a day earlier to pray at the Israeli barrier surrounding the biblical West Bank town of Bethlehem. Francis spent a few minutes before the only remains of the biblical Second Temple and left a note inside an envelope in one of the cracks between the stones. When St. John Paul II visited in 2000, he left a note asking forgiveness for the suffering inflicted on Jews by Christians over history. Pope Benedict XVI's note prayed for peace for Christians, Muslims and Jews alike. The Vatican hasn't said if the contents of Francis' prayer would be released.

The Western Wall Tunnel is an underground tunnel exposing the full length of the Western Wall. The tunnel is adjacent to the Western Wall and is located under buildings of the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel. While the open-air portion of the Western Wall is approximately 60 metres (200 ft) long, the majority of its original length is hidden underground. The tunnel allows access to an additional 485 metres (1,591 ft) of the wall The tunnel exposes a total length of 485 m of the wall, revealing the methods of construction and the various activities in the vicinity of the Temple Mount.[1] The excavations included many archaeological finds along the way, including discoveries from the Herodian period (streets, monumental masonry), sections of a reconstruction of the Western Wall dating to the Umayyad period, and various structures dating to the Ayyubid, Mamluke and Hasmonean periods constructed to support buildings in the vicinity of the Temple Mount. "Warren's Gate" lies about 150 feet (46 m) into the tunnel. This sealed-off entrance has been turned into a small synagogue called "The Cave", by Rabbi Yehuda Getz, since it is the closest point a Jew can get to the Holy of Holies, assuming it was located at the traditional site under the Dome of the Rock. At the northern portion of the Western Wall, remains of a water channel, which originally supplied water to the Temple Mount, were found. The exact source of the channel is unknown, though it passes through an underground pool known as the "Struthion Pool". The water channel was dated to the Hasmonean period and was accordingly dubbed the "Hasmonean Channel". The biggest stone in the Western Wall often called the Western Stone is also revealed within the tunnel and ranks as one of the heaviest objects ever lifted by human beings without powered machinery. The stone has a length of 13.6 metres (45 ft) and an estimated width of between 3.5 metres (11 ft) and 4.5 metres (15 ft); estimates place its weight at 570

Think you know the Western Wall? Here are 24 facts most people don't know about the Western Wall.

US President Donald Trump has landed in Israel, being welcomed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the entire cabinet after the Israeli leader made it mandatory for all ministers to attend the reception, having learned that some planned to skip the ceremony.

Many thousands of Jews gathered at the Kotel (the Western Wall) on the 2nd day of Chol HaMoed Pesach 5771 (the intermediate days of the Passover festival of 2011) for Birkat Kohanim (the Priestly Blessing) in accordance with the Torah's commandment in the book of Bamidbar (Numbers) chapter 6 verse 23-27. The ceremony has become a tradition ever since the liberation of Har HaBayit (the Temple Mount) and the rest of the Old City of Jerusalem during the Six Day War in 1967. It is in commemoration of the Biblical obligation to visit the Holy Temple on the three annual festivals, namely, Pesach (Passover), Shavuot (Pentecost), and Sukkot (Tabernacles). It is also a special opportunity for many Cohanim (Jews who trace their lineage to Aaron, the first High Priest) to fulfill the Biblical obligation of blessing the nation, and for non-Cohanim to be blessed (also a Biblical obligation, according to some). It is to be noted that the Western Wall is merely a supportive wall of the Temple Mount in which the Holy Temple itself stood. The holiday prayers emphasize our goal of returning to the Mount, and not to the courtyards around it: "Bring us to Zion Your city with joy, and to Jerusalem, the House of Your Temple, with everlasting happiness... Build Your house as at the beginning, and establish Your Temple on its foundation; show us its construction and gladden us with its rectification... and to there we will ascend and be seen and bow down before You on our three festivals..."

A mass prayer was held by the Western Wall in East Jerusalem to call for an end to the coronavirus epidemic, on Sunday. Footage shows Jews rocking back and forth as they were reciting prayers by the Wall. "We say to the Chinese people we are praying for you. We are asking for a blessing that you will also be happy, healthy that there is a cure for the illness, that your doctors will find a way to cure your disease," said Amichai Eliyahu, the chairman of the Community Rabbinical Association. Jon Zon, a Chinese student residing in Israel, joined in on the public prayer and said "I feel sad about the situation in China, but I think Chinese people will conquer this difficulty and everything will be fine. I hope more Chinese people can come here as usual." "Just like the Chinese stood for the Jewish people right after World War II, and we are here to support the Chinese people," shared the chair of the Israel Export and International Cooperation Institute, Adiv Baruch. The prayer session was reportedly organised by the head of Community Rabbinical Association, rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, along with the Israeli branch of the Orthodox Union. The novel coronavirus, now officially recognised as the Covid-19, has claimed many lives and infected thousands of people around the world.

Bar Mitzvah Ceremony at the Wailing Wall (Western Wall), Jerusalem during Coronavirus disease

What makes Jerusalem so unique and special? Here's a must-see video of the special purpose and events God did and will do in Jerusalem. Jerusalem means “City of Peace.” It’s mentioned over 500 times in the Bible. Jerusalem is the special dwelling place of God on this earth. Psalms 76:2: His tent is in Salem, his dwelling place in Zion. Psalm 135:21: Praise be to the LORD from Zion, to him who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD. It was in Jerusalem, on Mount Moriah, that Abraham was to offer Isaac, his firstborn son to God, on the very place the temple would later be built.

JERUSALEM (AP) - President Donald Trump has paid his respects at the Western Wall, the holiest place where Jews can pray. Wearing a black skullcap, Trump walked slowly toward the wall and pressed his right hand flat against the stone for about 30 seconds. He then tucked a prayer note into a deep crevice. His wife and daughter Ivanka, who converted to Judaism, visited the women's section of the wall. The site in Jerusalem's Old City in east Jerusalem was at the center of a recent spat between the two allies following the U.S refusal to say it is part of Israel. Before visiting the Wall, Trump visited the Church of the Holy Supulchre. It's believed to be where Jesus was crucified, and where his tomb is located. Trump is on his first visit to Israel as president.

Story: US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo toured the Western Wall on Thursday afternoon accompanied by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, in a visit that could be viewed as signalling tacit recognition of Israel’s sovereignty over the holy site located in the Jerusalem’s contested Old City. Pompeo’s visit was the first time that the United States’ senior-most diplomat is accompanied to the Old City by a senior Israeli official. The Western Wall -- the holiest site in Judaism -- is situated in the heart of the Old City in east Jerusalem. Palestinians see the eastern part of the city as the capital of their desired future state, while Israel claims the whole city as its undivided capital. Foreign dignitaries typically dub their visits to the Western Wall as “private visits” and go unaccompanied by official representatives of Israel so as to avoid any implication of recognition of sovereignty over the site. The unprecedented visit comes following the United States’ controversial decision in December 2017 to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. It also comes as US and Israeli officials say Washington is gearing up to officially recognize Israel’s sovereignty over another contested territory — the mountainous Golan Heights region bordering Syria — as early as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s meeting with US President Donald Trump at the White House in Washington on Monday. Ahead of the Western Wall visit, Pompeo met with Israeli President Reuven Rivlin for talks focused on 'various regional challenges' particularly regarding the 'build-up of Iranian forces in Syria and Lebanon and on Iranian support for Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon', a statement from the president's office said. 'Mr President, I am sure that you know that Israel has no better friend than the United States. These are not just words, this is what we do on a daily basis for the benefit of us both.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro paid a visit to Jerusalem's Western Wall with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, the second day of his official visit to the country.

Brazil opened a new trade mission to Israel in Jerusalem on Sunday, while the two countries' delegations signed a number of cooperative agreements on defence, security and cyber security, health, aviation, science and technology. Bolsonaro's four-day visit takes place a week before Israel's Knesset elections, which are scheduled for April 9.
