Only in Jerusalem

It may be of interest to readers of The Jerusalem Post that Israel, particularly Jerusalem, could be the only place in the world where one can fulfill biblical prophecy by simply sitting on a bench.

Last week, my wife and I were sitting in a Jerusalem park watching children at a playground. I received a telephone call from my daughter, a Bible teacher, and I mentioned where we were. “How wonderful,” she said. “It says in Zecharia (8:4): “Thus said God: Old men and old women will once again sit in the streets of Jerusalem... and the streets of the city will be filled with boys and girls playing in its streets.”

Try doing that in Borough Park, Teaneck or Golders Green! JAY SHAPIRO Jerusalem
