There are many cities all over the world, but our hearts have always yearned for one particular city throughout Jewish history. Jerusalem is a city that is a symbol. In this paper, we present several texts that have found a place in the nation’s heritage and influenced many generations, including adages found in the Bible that have left an imprint in numerous locations across the world. Sometimes it seems that writers across generations wrote similarly about Jerusalem, whether they were in Spain, Yemen, Morocco, or Poland. Jerusalem has been and remains a source of inspiration through the ages.
