The Wall in Jerusalem: A Jewish Call to Christians to Follow Jesus in Bringing Peace to Israel and Palestine

The conflict between Israel and Palestine is at the center of a firestorm of political controversy, religious zeal, and bloodshed in the Middle East. Many American Christians feel that they have a biblical obligation to "stand with Israel" — but do we really understand the conflict? And is Zionism really the path to peace?

An American Jew, Mark Braverman was transformed by witnessing firsthand the occupation of Palestine and the devastating consequences of the struggle of Israelis and Palestinians to bring justice to their land. In THE WALL IN JERUSALEM, Braverman:

Clearly outlines the origins and major tenets of the conflict and of Zionism

Demonstrates how Christian Zionism conflicts with Christian values of justice and compassion

Gives Christians biblical and historical basis for supporting both the state of Israel and Palestine

Offers a clear course of action both at home and abroad to bring peace

Illuminating and provocative, this book will challenge what Christians think they know about Israel and Palestine, and inspire them to help bring God's peace to the Holy Land.
