לכבוד הרב שלום רב אשמח אם כבודו יוכל לומר לי היכן קבורה בת שבע אשת דוד

דוד מלך ישראל בת שבע שלמה וכל המלכים צאצאיהם עם המלכות טמונים יחד על מטות של זהב במערה תת קרקעים מתחת לעיר דוד והמקום סתום, ובכלל לא היכן שמצביעים לנו היום בהר ציון, כי הוא חלק מירושלים ולא היו קוברים בה כלל.

Об Израиле




Здесь люди как будто уже и не боятся сирен -
Они просто закрывают глаза и обращаются к Б-гу,
Который тоже живет здесь, вместе с ними.
Они просят его, чтобы не уходил, побыл рядом.
Люди прижимаются к нему, как маленькие дети,
К своим любимым игрушкам.
Потому что свято верят,
Что с ними ничего плохого не случится,
Пока Б-г живет рядом с ними… с нами
В одном доме.

Shilo


Today we will be talking about Shilo, the place where the Mishkan stood for over 369 years. Shilo was the first capital of Israel. It is there that Joshua erected the Mishkan and separated the country into lots for each one of the tribes.  Jos 18:1 The whole assembly of the Israelites gathered at Shiloh and set up the tent of meeting there. The country was brought under their control.

It is also there that Chana, who had prayed to G-d for a child, had the joy of consecrating him to the work of the Mishkan. Shmuel then became Cohen Gadol and a prophet after receiving his divine calling. 

Because of the presence of the Arch and the Mishkan, Shilo was a holy place were sacrifices were made. The tribes were invited for the pilgrimage three times a year and rejoiced with meat and the flow of abundant wine that was made locally. Archeological excavations have uncovered pottery and shards belonging to that prestigious period of time. Olive oil was produced locally as well. Located close to the Road of the Patriarchs, the site of Shilo was the perfect gathering place for young men and women who were dancing in the fields during the period of Tu Be'Av (after the incident of Benyamin).  Jug 21:21 When the young women of Shiloh come out to join in the dancing, rush from the vineyards and each of you seize one of them to be your wife. Then return to the land of Benjamin.

The Arch of Covenant remained in Shilo for over two centuries before being taken by the Philistines, who brought it to Ashdod and placed it in the temple of their god Dagon. The Philistines later destroyed the city because of its many sins and disrespect towards G-d. (Yoma 9a). 

Centuries later, churches were built on the biblical site. Eusebius wrote during the 5th century that the church had been built on the location where the Mishkan of the children of Israel was.

Excavations prove the biblical story and it is very touching to tour this thousand year old site, remnant of the early Jewish history. Funds were allocated in order to restore this precious site and we will be following the evolution of the excavations with enthusiam! A site not to be missed! Follow the guide!
