Jerusalem | King David's Tomb & The Room of the Last Supper

Israel video tour with David Hyman, professional tour guide. While visiting Jerusalem's Old City, don't miss this compact compound on Mount Zion. It houses some of Jerusalem's most important and holy sites. King David was the founder of Jerusalem, as described in the Book of Samuel. David chose the location for political reasons, so he can unite the 12 tribes who could all agree to Jerusalem as the capital as it was not part of any tribe's territory. The Biblical reference to David's tomb mentions that he was buried in "The City of David" but the tomb was never found. During the Crusader Period (13th Century AD) the tradition of David's tomb was relocated to its present location, on Mount Zion and it has been here since. David's tomb is an active synagogue with an orthodox community present at all times. It is possible to visit, but please be aware of the dress code protocol and avoid photography on the Sabbath. The second floor of the building houses possibly the most famous room in the world. The room of the Last Supper, also known as the SEnacle. Once again, we have tradition. history and politics all in one location creating great confusion to all. The scripture does not offer a clear description of the whereabouts of the upper room. In the Byzantine period, a church was built here and one of the chapels was dedicated to the last supper. The Crusaders renovated that room during the 12th century and since then it is considered the location. The room switched hands many times and all the religions have claimes over it. For the past 50 years, the room is managed by Israel's Ministry of Religious Affairs and the entrance is free and open to all. There are many Arabic inscriptions on the walls because, under the Ottoman rule, the room was part of a mosque dedicated to King David, referred to in the Qoran as Nabi Daoud ( Prophet David) Another monumental building is the Dormition abbey but it is closed because of the COVID and we could not enter. So I could only record it from the exterior. Thanks, Shiri for joining me as we explore more of Jerusalem, love doing this together with you...
