John Robert Young: Jerusalem: City of Faith

Jerusalem: Sacred city of three faiths: Founded in the third millenium BC, Jerusalem is the most dramatic city in the world. Known also as The City of David, this is the city of the great Temple of Soloman, revered by Judism. For Christians it is the place where Christ was crucified. For Moslems, it is the city where it is believed the Prophet Mohammed ascended to heaven. As a young man John Robert Young lived in the Old City in a house on the Via Dolorosa (Way of the Cross). He recalls: 'From the roof of the house I could look out across the Old City to the Temple Mount and beyond to The Mount of Olives. It was breathtaking and deeply moving.'
