The Psalmist describes a young man living in the northern region of the
Land of Israel longing for Jerusalem, his soul thirsting for closeness to God.
Where does he find his inspiration otherwise? Mount Hermon. Soaring over 2800 meters
above sea level, this mountain range is covered in snow for most of the year,
and the runoff of melting snow is the major source of freshwater for the Jordan
River which flows into the Sea of Galilee. Yet despite the awe-inspiring
vistas, the psalmist still seeks spiritual inspiration 200 kilometers southward,
from a small hill upon which stands the Temple and from there the word of God
emanates to the entire world. Draw YOUR inspiration from the wonder of
Jerusalem with this fantastic Jerusalem night sky necklace, made of fine
sterling silver with a genuine fragment of ancient Roman glass. It's sure to
keep you longing for Jerusalem.
