It was named Palestine a long time before the UN partition. It was the Romans who so named it, intending insult to the rebellious Jews. The root of “Palestine” is Phillistine, (Plishti in Hebrew) the ancient enemy of Israel.

YOU are RIGHT!

Who can forget little David and Goliath?

1 Samuel 17:4 (KJV)

And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

Of course there are other examples as well but this one may “ring a bell” with a few people out there.

Kudos to you!!!!

MAJOR BUMP!

Isn't it always interesting how in the Qu’ran Jerusalem is NEVER mentioned but they want it as their city? The opposite is true for the Jews.
