Jerusalem

예루살렘

Matthew 2:1–3: the wise men arrive here and the city is troubled with Herod. Joshua 10:1–5 says that Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai and utterly destroyed it, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them, and sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying, “Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel”, and that the five kings of the Amorites encamped against Gibeon and made war against it; 10:23 names the king of Jerusalem among those five kings brought out of the cave. Joshua 15:63 says that the children of Judah couldn’t drive out the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and that the Jebusites live with the children of Judah at Jerusalem to this day. Judges 1:7 says that they brought Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem, and he died there; 1:8 says that the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, took it, struck it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire; and 1:21 says that the children of Benjamin didn’t drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem, but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day. 2 Samuel 5:5 says that in Jerusalem David reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah, and 5:6–9 that the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who said to David, “The blind and the lame will keep you out of here”; nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion, lived in the stronghold, and called it David’s city. 2 Samuel 15:14 says that David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise! Let’s flee, or else none of us will escape from Absalom”; 15:29 that Zadok and Abiathar carried God’s ark to Jerusalem again, and stayed there; and 15:37 that Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem. 2 Samuel 24:4–8 says that Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel and, when they had gone back and forth through all the land, came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days; and 24:16 says that when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented of the disaster. 1 Kings 14:21 says that Rehoboam reigned seventeen years “in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there”, and 14:25–26 that in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem and took away the treasures of the LORD’s house and the treasures of the king’s house. 2 Kings 14:13 says that Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah at Beth Shemesh “and came to Jerusalem, then broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits”; and 14:19 says of Amaziah, “They made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish”. 2 Kings 18:17 says that the king of Assyria sent Tartan, Rabsaris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great army to Jerusalem, and that they went up and came to Jerusalem; 18:35 gives among the words of the king of Assyria that Rabshakeh cries, “Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?”; 19:10 gives among the words the king of Assyria (WEB “he”, 19:9) sends by messengers, “Don’t let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria”; and 19:21 and 19:31 give among the LORD’s words that Isaiah the son of Amoz sends to Hezekiah, “The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you” and “For out of Jerusalem a remnant will go out”. 2 Kings 24:10–16 says that the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged, and that all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths were carried away, and no one remained except the poorest people of the land; 25:1–3 that “in the ninth year of his reign” (the Korean 시드기야 구년, Zedekiah’s ninth year), in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it, and they built forts against it around it, so that the city was besieged until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah, and on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was severe in the city; and 25:8–10 that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard came to Jerusalem and burned the LORD’s house, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and that all the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls around Jerusalem. Ezra 3:1 says, “When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem”; 3:8, that in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work; the copy of the letter to King Artaxerxes says at 4:12, “the Jews who came up from you have come to us to Jerusalem. They are building the rebellious and bad city”; the king’s answer says at 4:20, “There have also been mighty kings over Jerusalem who have ruled over all the country beyond the River”; and 4:23 says, “Then when the copy of King Artaxerxes’ letter was read before Rehum, Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews, and made them to cease by force of arms.” Nehemiah 1:2–3 says that the speaker (“I”) of the words that 1:1 heads “The words of Nehemiah the son of Hacaliah” asked Hanani and the men who had come out of Judah concerning Jerusalem, and that they said, “The remnant who are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem is also broken down, and its gates are burned with fire.” 2:11–13 says that the speaker came to Jerusalem and was there three days, went out by night by the valley gate, and “inspected the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and its gates were consumed with fire”; and at 2:17 the speaker says, “You see the bad situation that we are in, how Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come, let’s build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we won’t be disgraced.” Nehemiah 12:27 says, “At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem to keep the dedication with gladness, both with giving thanks and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps”; and 12:43, “They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced, for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women and the children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even far away.” Daniel 1:1 says, “In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it.” Mark 1:5 has all those of Jerusalem go out to John and be baptized by him in the Jordan river; 3:8 has a multitude come to Jesus from Jerusalem, and at 3:22 the scribes who came down from Jerusalem say that he has Beelzebul. Mark 7:1 has the Pharisees and some of the scribes come from Jerusalem and gather to Jesus. Mark 10:32–33 has Jesus take the twelve and tell them what is going to happen to him on the way up to Jerusalem; at 11:11 he enters into the temple in Jerusalem, and they come to Jerusalem at 11:15 and again at 11:27. Mark 15:41 says that many other women were there who had come up with Jesus to Jerusalem. Luke 2:22 has the child brought up to Jerusalem to be presented to the Lord when the days of purification according to the law of Moses are fulfilled; at 2:25–38 Simeon, a man in Jerusalem, receives the child Jesus into his arms in the temple and blesses God, and the prophetess Anna gives thanks to the Lord and speaks of him to all those who are looking for redemption in Jerusalem (the Korean Revised Version says 이 아기, this child); and at 2:41–51, when Jesus is twelve years old, he stays behind in Jerusalem after the days of the feast, and after three days his parents find him in the temple. Luke 4:9 has the devil lead Jesus to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and at 5:17 Pharisees and teachers of the law who have come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem are sitting by as Jesus teaches. Luke 6:17 says that when Jesus stood on a level place, a great number of the people were there from all Judea and Jerusalem and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Luke 9:30–31 has Moses and Elijah appear in glory and speak of the departure Jesus was about to accomplish at Jerusalem; at 9:51 he intently sets his face to go to Jerusalem, and at 9:52–53 he is not received in a village of the Samaritans, because he is traveling with his face set toward Jerusalem. At Luke 13:4 Jesus asks whether the eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell were worse offenders than all the men who dwell in Jerusalem; 13:22 has him go on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem; and at 13:33–34 he says that it can’t be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem, and speaks to Jerusalem as the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her. Luke 17:11 says that on his way to Jerusalem Jesus was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee; at 18:31 he tells the twelve, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed”; at 19:11 he goes on and tells a parable because he is near Jerusalem and those hearing him suppose that God’s Kingdom will be revealed immediately; at 19:28 he goes on ahead, going up to Jerusalem; and at 19:41, when he comes near, he sees the city and weeps over it. Luke 21:20–24 gives the words “when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand” and says that Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled; at 23:7 Pilate sends Jesus to Herod, who is also in Jerusalem during those days, and at 23:27–28 Jesus turns to the women who mourn and lament him and calls them daughters of Jerusalem; at 24:13 two people are going to a village named Emmaus, sixty stadia from Jerusalem, and at 24:33 the two return to Jerusalem that very hour and find the eleven gathered together, and those who are with them; and at 24:46–47 Jesus says that it is written that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in the Christ’s name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem. At John 1:19 the Jews send priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask John, “Who are you?”; at 2:13–15 the Passover of the Jews is at hand, and Jesus goes up to Jerusalem, drives all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen, pours out the changers’ money and overthrows their tables; and at 2:23, when Jesus is in Jerusalem at the Passover, many believe in his name, observing his signs which he does. At John 4:20–21 the woman of Samaria says, “Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship,” and Jesus says to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father”; 4:45 says that the Galileans had seen all the things that Jesus did in Jerusalem at the feast; and 5:1–2 says that there was a feast of the Jews and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, where by the sheep gate there is a pool called in Hebrew “Bethesda”. At John 7:25–26 some of them of Jerusalem say of Jesus, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill? Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?” John 10:22–23 has Jesus walking in the temple, in Solomon’s porch, at the Feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem, in winter; 11:18 says Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia away; at 11:55 many go up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves; and at 12:12–13 a great multitude that had come to the feast hears that Jesus is coming to Jerusalem, takes the branches of the palm trees and goes out to meet him. Acts 1:4 has Jesus command, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father,” and at 1:8 he says, “You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth”; at 1:12 they return to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away; Acts 2:5 says that there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under the sky; at 2:14 Peter speaks out, “You men of Judea and all you who dwell at Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to my words”; and at 4:5 the rulers, elders, and scribes are gathered together in Jerusalem. Acts 5:16 says that the multitude also came together from the cities around Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed; at 5:28 the high priest says, “you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man’s blood on us”; and 6:7 says that the number of the disciples greatly multiplied in Jerusalem. Acts 8:1 says that in that day a great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles; at 8:14 and 8:25 the apostles who are at Jerusalem send Peter and John, and Peter and John, when they have testified, return to Jerusalem; at 8:26–28 an angel of the Lord sends Philip to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza, and a eunuch of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who had come to Jerusalem to worship, is returning; at 9:1–2 Saul asks for letters, that if he finds any who are of the Way he might bring them bound to Jerusalem; at 9:13 Ananias says to the Lord, “I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem”; at 9:26–29 Saul comes to Jerusalem, tries to join himself to the disciples; Barnabas brings him to the apostles, and he is with them entering into Jerusalem, preaching boldly; and at 10:38–39 Peter says of Jesus of Nazareth, “We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem.” Acts 11:2 says that when Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him; at 11:22 the assembly which was in Jerusalem sends out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch, and at 11:27 prophets come down from Jerusalem to Antioch; at 12:25 Barnabas and Saul return to Jerusalem when they have fulfilled their service (the Korean Revised Version reads that they returned from Jerusalem); and at 13:13 John departs from Paul and his company and returns to Jerusalem. Acts 15:2–4 says that Paul, Barnabas, and some others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders, and that when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly and the apostles and the elders; at 16:4, as Paul and those with him went on their way through the cities, “they delivered the decrees to them to keep which had been ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem”; and at 18:21 Paul, taking his leave at Ephesus, says, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills,” where the Korean Revised Version has only the words about returning. Acts 19:21 says that Paul determined, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem; at 20:16 he is hastening to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, and at 20:22 he says, “Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there”; at 21:4 disciples say to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go up to Jerusalem; at 21:11–13 Agabus says, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘So the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt,’” and Paul answers that he is ready to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus; at 21:15–17 the text says, “After these days we took up our baggage and went up to Jerusalem,” and, “When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly”; and at 21:30–31 the people seize Paul and drag him out of the temple, and as they are trying to kill him, news comes up to the commanding officer of the regiment that all Jerusalem is in an uproar. In the defense made in the Hebrew language, Acts 22:5 tells of a journey to Damascus “to bring them also who were there to Jerusalem in bonds to be punished,” and 22:17–18 of a trance in the temple after a return to Jerusalem, and of the words spoken to the speaker in it: “Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly.” At 23:11 the Lord says to Paul, “as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must testify also at Rome”; at 24:11 Paul tells the governor that it is not more than twelve days since he went up to worship at Jerusalem; and at 25:1–9 Festus goes up to Jerusalem from Caesarea, the high priest and the principal men of the Jews ask that he summon Paul to Jerusalem, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem bring charges against Paul at Caesarea, and Festus asks Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and be judged by me there concerning these things?” At Acts 26:4 Paul tells King Agrippa, “all the Jews know my way of life from my youth up, which was from the beginning among my own nation and at Jerusalem”; at 26:10, “I also did this in Jerusalem. I both shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests”; at 26:20 that he “declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent”; and at 28:17 he tells the leaders of the Jews that he “was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.”

Entry: Jerusalem (place-jerusalem)
Address: https://bibliadatum.org/en/wiki/place/jerusalem
Current wording: Matthew 2:1–3: the wise men arrive here and the city is troubled with Herod. Joshua 10:1–5 says that Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai and utterly destroyed it, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them, and sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying, “Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel”, and that the five kings of the Amorites encamped against Gibeon and made war against it; 10:23 names the king of Jerusalem among those five kings brought out of the cave.

Luke 9:30–31 has Moses and Elijah appear in glory and speak of the departure Jesus was about to accomplish at Jerusalem; at 9:51 he intently sets his face to go to Jerusalem, and at 9:52–53 he is not received in a village of the Samaritans, because he is traveling with his face set toward Jerusalem.

Acts 19:21 says that Paul determined, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem; at 20:16 he is hastening to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, and at 20:22 he says, “Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there”; at 21:4 disciples say to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go up to Jerusalem; at 21:11–13 Agabus says, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘So the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt,’” and Paul answers that he is ready to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus; at 21:15–17 the text says, “After these days we took up our baggage and went up to Jerusalem,” and, “When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly”; and at 21:30–31 the people seize Paul and drag him out of the temple, and as they are trying to kill him, news comes up to the commanding officer of the regiment that all Jerusalem is in an uproar. In the defense made in the Hebrew language, Acts 22:5 tells of a journey to Damascus “to bring them also who were there to Jerusalem in bonds to be punished,” and 22:17–18 of a trance in the temple after a return to Jerusalem, and of the words spoken to the speaker in it: “Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly.” At 23:11 the Lord says to Paul, “as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must testify also at Rome”; at 24:11 Paul tells the governor that it is not more than twelve days since he went up to worship at Jerusalem; and at 25:1–9 Festus goes up to Jerusalem from Caesarea, the high priest and the principal men of the Jews ask that he summon Paul to Jerusalem, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem bring charges against Paul at Caesarea, and Festus asks Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and be judged by me there concerning these things?” At Acts 26:4 Paul tells King Agrippa, “all the Jews know my way of life from my youth up, which was from the beginning among my own nation and at Jerusalem”; at 26:10, “I also did this in Jerusalem. I both shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests”; at 26:20 that he “declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent”; and at 28:17 he tells the leaders of the Jews that he “was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.”
