Portraying the Land
The book presents and discusses a large corpus of Jewish maps of the Holy Land that were drawn by Jewish scholars from the 11 th to the 20 th century, and thus fills a significant lacuna both in the history of cartography and in Jewish studies. The maps depict the biblical borders of the Holy Land, the allotments of the tribes, and the forty years of wanderings in the desert. Most of these maps are in Hebrew although there are several in Yiddish,…

Why Is the Minaret So Short? Evidence for Earthquake Damage on Mt Zion
On top of King David's Sepulchre at Mt Zion there is an Ottoman minaret known as al-Nabi Da'ud. Compared with other minarets in Jerusalem, al-Nabi Da'ud seems to be somewhat shorter, and has a squat-like appearance. To track why it is shorter than other minarets, we inspected written historical sources, a sequence of old drawings dated between the mid-eighteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries and analysed the minaret's metric proportions. In drawin…
Sacred Words and Worlds
Under the title Geographia Sacra, or sacred geography, scholars have studied the geography of various aspects of the Holy Scriptures and their exegeses and drawn maps of the Holy Land. Yet they hav
The Jewish Quarter after 1967
The article explores the reconstruction of Jerusalem’s Jewish Quarter after the 1967 war, with an emphasis on the area’s emergence as a symbolic Israeli landscape. The post-1967 Jewish Quarter became a symbol of national renewal and of Jewish control over united Jerusalem. In fact, it was the destruction during the 1948 war and the severe neglect in its aftermath that provided Israel the opportunity to recreate the area’s geography and history, t…
A Sixteenth-Century Hebrew Map from Mantua
A unique Hebrew map of the Exodus and the Holy Land was printed in Mantua, Italy, in the mid-sixteenth century. This map is graphically and artistically different from all other Hebrew maps, both earlier and later. The aim here is to analyze the map and the text that is printed on it, explore the reasons for, and the context of, its printing, and identify its sources within contemporary Jewish scholarship and Christian cartography. The only known…
Hug ha-’ares by Rabbi Solomon of Chelm
The sanctity of the Land of Israel and its borders are fundamental concepts in Jewish texts, from the Bible and throughout the rabbinic literature. Nevertheless, Jewish graphical representations of this territory, whether as maps or other geographical illustrations, are both rare and late.

We will present them according to the site represented in them, but suggest also classifying them as (a) artifacts brought as souvenirs from Jerusalem; (b) models an…
