Strive for Perfection and Peace...

Wednesday, November 18, 2015 |  Israel Today Staff

The Hebrew language is more than a means of communication. It leads us into a deeper understanding of our faith. We need to both understand the ancient idiom of the language and the structure of words formed from their roots.

Let's take the two words "Jerusalem" & "Solomon" - Yerushalayim (ירושלים) & Shlomo (שלמה) respectively in Hebrew. Both names are constructed from the root שלמ. This the same root that is contained in "shalom" (peace), "shlemut" (perfection), "shalem" (wholeness), "shilem" (paid for), etc. The idea that is collectively conveyed by these words is "wholeness" or "perfection"!

The city of Jerusalem is also called "perfect" or the "perfect city", and during the reign of King Solomon, she came closest to being such. Shlomo built the First Temple in Jerusalem - the place that God chose for His glory or presence (Shekinah) to dwell on earth. This glory and incomparable peace will be experienced again felt in the coming of the Messiah once again to Jerusalem the eternal city chosen by God.
