This blog is an informal chronicle of the life and times of Michal and Jonathan in Jerusalem. As it will be up to Jonathan to update it, the addition of new content may be random and infrequent, but he promises to try really hard to update often. Shalom

Wow! Look how huge the Kingdom of Israel was in its day! And take note of how recent is the nation status of our "ancient" neighbors.
Most of them came into being around the same time as modern Israel, give or take a few years.
Lots of info and surprises in that time-flow map!

No kidding - if anything, I hadn't even realized that the area changed hands so many times!
