The Secret Chambers Hidden in the Cave of Patriarchs Will Astound You [PHOTOS] - Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz BREAKING ISRAEL NEWS


The Secret Chambers Hidden in the Cave of Patriarchs Will Astound You [PHOTOS]


“It is the glory of God to conceal a thing; but the glory of kings is to search out a matter.” Proverbs 25:2 (The Israel Bible™)
Thirty-five years ago, a small group of Jews set out on a difficult and dangerous mission: to prove that the Biblical account of a cave in Hebron was true. One of those men tells of what they found: a secret chamber under the site, evidence that refutes the United Nations version of history supported by most of the nations of the world.
Of all the holy sites in Israel, the Machpela (Cave of the Patriarchs) in Hebron has special significance as being the oldest. A burial site for the three patriarchs and three of the matriarchs – Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, and Jacob and Leah –  it marks the origins of all three Abrahamic religions.
Dominated by a large, aboveground stone structure, visitors to Hebron are left wondering about the cave described in the Bible. A cave does exist, and even though its entrance is in plain sight, very few people have ever been inside.
Noam Arnon, spokesman for the Jewish community in Hebron, has been studying the Machpela for decades. His passion for the site began about 35 years ago when, risking imprisonment and the ire of the  Muslims, he pried open the stone covering the entrance to the burial site and ventured into the chambers underneath the building.

Shabbat Inspiration


Why was the city called Hebron, חברון? “This name,”
says the sages of Israel, “is made up of the contraction
of two Hebrew words: חבר נאה ha-VER na-EH, agreeable
friend; this designates Abraham who was the first
agreeable friend of God. God had said to Israel
(Isaiah 41:8), “The seed of Abraham, My friend.”
Walk in the footsteps of Abraham and become a friend
of the holy city of Hebron. You'll receive a Silver Medallion
and Certificate of Appreciation from the Hebron's Mayor.

Today's Israel Photo

Today's photo shows the ancient stone path leading into
Hebron. Two walls – one 4,500 years old and dated to
the era of Noah, and another wall – 3,700 years old from
the times of Abraham and Sarah, ensconce a stairwell
that is over 4,000 years old. Here one can literally walk
in the footsteps of Abraham.
