#79 What the Bible Says About Jerusalem: A City Set on a Hill
By Jonathan S. Rose
Title: A City Set on a Hill-the Stronghold of Jerusalem
Topic:
Summary: We look at the biblical account of Jerusalem--the historical account of its eventual conquest in the early Old Testament, and the prophetic things said of it in the later portions of the Old Testament and in the New. Paul's statement in Galatians is key: that there are two Jerusalems, one of which is "above," that is, spiritual.

Joel 3:17-21
17
"So you will know that I am Yahweh, your God, dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain. Then Jerusalem will be holy, and no strangers will pass through her any more.
18
It will happen in that day, that the mountains will drop down sweet wine, the hills will flow with milk, all the brooks of Judah will flow with waters, and a fountain will come forth from the house of Yahweh, and will water the valley of Shittim.
19
Egypt will be a desolation, and Edom will be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20
But Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21
I will cleanse their blood, that I have not cleansed: for Yahweh dwells in Zion."
