“Heavenly Jerusalem, earthly Jerusalem. Never has a city been so beautiful and so blemished, so revered and so reviled, so easy to love and so hard to live in.” I have always felt the duality of Jerusalem—its earthly conflicts and iniquities in permanent battle with its heavenly radiance—but I recently returned from a six-week visit there and have never before experienced Jerusalem so torn, so dejected, so joyless.
