Nachum Segal Broadcasts Live From Ir David, Jerusalem
Nachum Segal continued his great week in Israel with a broadcast from Ir David in Jerusalem. The story of theCity of David began over 3,000 years ago, when King David left the city of Hebron for a small hilltop city known as Jerusalem, establishing it as the unified capital of the tribes of Israel. Years later, David's son, King Solomon, built the First Temple next to the City of David on top of Mount Moriah, the site of the binding of Isaac, and with it, this hilltop became one of the most important sites in the world. Today, the story of theCity of David continues. Deep underground, the City of David is revealing some of the most exciting archaeological finds of the ancient world. While above ground, the city is a vibrant center of activity with a visitor's center that welcomes visitors for an exciting tour to the site where much of the Bible was written. Nachum spoke with a host of fascinating guests including Chief of Staff Yigal Segal,Yoni Mishan of The Lion's Den, Eli Aloni of Ir David, and Doron Spielman.
