Faces Of Jerusalem Gate

                Rejoice thee with Jerusalem, and be glad with her,
                All ye that love her;
                Rejoice for joy with her,
                All that mourn for her.
                For thus saith the Lord,
                Behold, I will extent peace to her like a river,
                And the glory of the nations like a flowing stream.

                               (Isaiah, 66:10-12)



Jerusalem, through the years, attracted an amazing mixture

walk in the streets of Jerusalem can be a fascinating experience.

This collection of photographs was taken in the last century by
different photographers, some unknown, and can give an outlook
on the people living in Jerusalem.
