Desecrating a Synagogue
By Micah Halpern

Saturday May 26, 2012

I've Been Thinking:

An ancient synagogue 2.5 miles north of Jericho was vandalized. Swastikas were scrawled on the walls and the phrase "Palestine is Ours" was written in Arabic.

The Naaran synagogue dates back 1500 years to the period between the 5th and 6th centuries. It has a magnificent mosaic floor and featured on that floor are the Hebrew words Shalom al Y'israel - Peace Upon Israel.

Why would anyone desecrate a synagogue? And why an ancient synagogue?

The name Naaran is found in the Bible in I Chronicles 7:28. This synagogue is evidence that Israel has real historic roots - right there, right in that spot.

There are many who have tried to revise history. Official Palestinian sites assert that there was no Jewish presence in the region and none the Temple Mount.

The Palestinians live by a rule: He who owns history owns the present and the future.
