Though many of the texts may be related to Judaism and Israel, a considerable number deal with more general multicultural subjects. The word “Jerusalem” appears in each article, whether as the main subject or just as a passing reference, for the simple reason that we were born in Jerusalem, raised in Jerusalem, and love Jerusalem more than any other city in the world.
