Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






Here is one of those "Professions" which is now considered "Obsolete". The closest that we would have now is the Sommelier, who presents the wine. He has an ancient protocol: presenting the label, allowing the patron to sniff the cork, pouring a small amount for the patron to aerate the wine, inhale the bouquet, taste a bit, nod his approval, and only then, he serves the vintage.

The "Cupbearer" in Ancient times had one more duty to perform. He would drink the wine HIMSELF, and if he didn't drop dead from poison, it was OK to serve to the King!

The intimacy of this relationship was such that the Cupbearer to the king was often a trusted friend and adviser as well as a wine tester. This is carried out in both of these stories in the Bible, especially in the Story of Nehemiah. Nehemiah's emotional distress over the destruction of Jerusalem is immediately sensed by the King, who issues a decree to return the Jews from Exile. This Decree is preserved in the Cylinder of Cyrus, which is considered by some to be the earliest known declaration of Human Rights.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

This Symbol Represents Christians in The Middle East, who desperately need our Prayers.

Hallelujah and Amen
