Jeremiah describes the Land of Israel as an "eretz khemdah" (אֶרֶץ חֶמְדָּה), "a pleasant land." The word 'khemdah,' however, also means "desire." Jeremiah uses this description since the Land of Israel is desired by all the nations. God's holy presence is so palpable here that everyone senses and seeks its holiness. Now, you can fulfill your desire to connect with the land and experience its incredible beauty by bringing Holy Land artifacts into your home and into your heart.
