What Is In a Name ✡ "Choose Jerusalem Again"

And the LORD shall inherit Judah as His portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again

ZECHARIAH (2:16)
 

וְנָחַל יְ-הוָה אֶת יְהוּדָה חֶלְקוֹ עַל אַדְמַת הַקֹּדֶשׁ וּבָחַר עוֹד בִּירוּשָׁלִָם

זכריה ב:טז

v'-na-khal a-do-nai et y'-hu-dah khel-ko al ad-mat ha-ko-desh u-va-khar od bee-ru-sha-la-yim

Jerusalem Inspiration

There are many explanations of the meaning of the Hebrew name for Jerusalem, 'Yerushalayim.' According to Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, Yerushalayim comes from the words ‘Yirah Shalem.’ 'Yirah' is the Hebrew word for awe, and 'shalem' means complete. 'Yerushalayim,' therefore, means complete, self-effacing awe; completely submitting oneself to the Lord. The holy city is so special and beloved to man because God loves it so much. This is also how we relate to the entire Land of Israel. We love it because God loves it! Find out the meaning behind your own Hebrew name with a personalized Hebrew name certificate.
