[Kelsey Bryant · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars. I really liked most of what the author had to say and I learned a lot, mainly about the events concerning Israel in the twentieth century. He detailed those but skimmed over the previous centuries; that was okay with me because I just read Jerusalem: The Biography, which covered all of that. There were a few parts of this book that I felt weren't executed well, hence I can't give it four stars. But I am always amazed by the story of Israel's rebirth, so I appreciated Mike Evans's insight.

Well written and a great history lesson. He clearly details the problems israel and the Jewish people have had to deal with. Most of all the explanation of how Palestine people came to exist clearly much later in history. Proving people need to learn and know history rather than trying to change it or ignorantly put out false information.

I bought this book years ago & wish I had read it earlier. Definitely worth the read.

Mike Evans attempts to explain the history of Jerusalem in this book, based on both Bible Scripture and first hand accounts of those who were there from when it was liberated. Unfortunately, it reads more like a piece of whitewashed, religious fictional account as opposed to an actual historical account of one of the oldest, religious, contested, and historical places on the planet.

[Paul Wichert · Rating 2 out of 5]

Written from a dispensational Zionist perspective, this book contains an interesting, somewhat sensational history of the formation of the political nation of Israel; however, the accompanying biblical interpretation, theology, and eschatology is problematic.
