๐✨ Jerusalem: A 3000-Year Journey From David to Trump ✨๐
Jerusalem’s story stretches across three millennia — beginning with King David transforming it into the “City of David,” followed by King Solomon constructing the First Temple.
Over time, Jerusalem endured invasions and rule under Assyria (๐ฎ๐ถ๐ธ๐พ), Babylon (๐ฎ๐ถ), Persia (๐ฎ๐ท), Greece (๐ฌ๐ท), Rome (๐ฎ๐น), the Crusaders (๐ฌ๐ง๐ซ๐ท), the Ottoman Empire (๐น๐ท), and the British Mandate (๐ฌ๐ง), before returning to Jewish control under Israel (๐ฎ๐ฑ).
A major turning point came in 2017, when President Donald Trump ๐บ๐ธ became the first U.S. president to formally recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a historic and political shift that led to the U.S. Embassy moving from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in 2018.
