The ancient Biblical city of Shiloh preceded Jerusalem as the home of the Tabernacle. It was the first site of the Tabernacle after the Children of Israel reached the Land, before the establishment of the Temple. After arriving in Israel, Joshua portioned out lands to each of the tribes and sent them out to settle their holdings. The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh set up their own competing altar to God. The other tribes reacted quickly, gathering together at Shiloh and threatening to make war if the smaller group did not put an end to this practice. Though the entire Land of Israel is Holy, God desires that His people unite to serve him with a single center of worship, which at that time was Shiloh. Today, the modern city of Shiloh stands on the site of ancient Shiloh, preserving an incredibly important Jewish site. Impressive archeological finds have been uncovered there, making it a must-see for any visitor who yearns to connect to Israel's Biblical beginnings. Shiloh is also home to the Shiloh Israel Children's Fund, one of the country's only rehabilitation centers designed to help heal children who were victims of terror attacks.

David Rubin, the founder of the Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund, has helped thousands of children cope with trauma caused by terrorism suffered by them or their family members.

“I'm Enjoying Your Emails”
It’s great to hear from you and make new friends from all over the world. Please send mean email and let me know how you are enjoying Jerusalem365 (don’t forget to say where you are from!).
I'm a US citizen, but at the moment in Chennai, India with my 92 year old mother who is doing great but weak. I'm enjoying your emails and the current news about Israel. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Israel every day. Now I'll start praying for the right to pray at the Temple mount by all faith. Manora V, Chennai, India |
