Introduction to “MORIAH”
It seems that no piece on earth has ever seen more joy and more sorrow, consecration and trial of our people than Mount Moriah. Just as a broad view unfolds before your eyes from the summit of a mountain, our people’s history can be seen symbolically from Mount Moriah. And as sometimes the bright summit shines upon the wide plain, Moriah appears at turning points of our history as a peak of shiny glory… or simply as the memorial of suffering.
