Every face of the piece reveals a different angle of the city, while the text running around the walls and the authentic soil from the Temple Mount excavations at its center weave all the parts together, a striking stand that reveals the charm of Jerusalem from every point of view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are the walls that held the Temple where Solomon prayed and where Jesus walked and taught. The name recalls the \"Jerusalem of Gold,\" the golden ornament engraved with the city's skyline that Rabbi Akiva gave his wife Rachel nearly two thousand years ago, in the generation that saw the Second Temple fall. One city, sacred to Jew and Christian alike, and at the center of this piece rests the same holy ground both faiths call their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\"If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill.\" (Psalm 137:5)\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1999, construction on the Temple Mount displaced soil holding three thousand years of history.
