| | The Holy Land |
 | | The Holy Land is sacred to the Bahá'ís for two reasons: Bahá'í belief in the oneness of religion, and the Holy Land's association with the early history of the Bahá'í Faith. | | | The Holy Land of the Jews, Christians, and Muslims thus retains its significance and sacredness to the Bahá'ís. | | | Moreover, the spiritual capital of the Bahá'í Faith is also in the Holy Land. |

| | Holy Land USA. Roadside America |
| | Holy Land USA burst onto the rocky slopes of Pine Hill in the early 1950s, when lawyer and evangelist John Greco responded to a personal message from God (or perhaps a broadcast message also received by the builder of Alabama's Ave Maria Grotto, Iowa's Grotto of the Redemption, and other 20th century divine labors). | | | He willed the land and his testament of personal faith to the Religious Teachers Fillipini of Bristol. | | | Still, Holy Land draws us back time and again, enraptured, waiting for the resurrection that we know is coming soon. |

| | American encounters with the Holy Land during the century before the creation of Israel shaped expectations for the new state and continue to affect the ways that Americans understand themselves through their relationship with the Holy Land. | | | The exhibition illustrated American notions of the "Holy Land" and the ways that the Land of Israel came to represent the highest historic, religious and political ideals. | | | A prologue addressed the mythic stature of the Land of Israel in both American culture and Jewish traditions prior to the mid-nineteenth century. |

| | Holy Land |
| | David's son, Solomon, built the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, but this was not the eternal edifice which Moses would have constructed; it was destroyed by the Babylonians in 3338 (423 BCE), rebuilt by Ezra in 3408 (353 BCE), and destroyed once more, by the Romans, in 3829 (69 CE). | | | For to sanctify the land, one requires the vision and guidance of the divine truth of truths - which can be attained only by a nation of "manna eaters." So first there had to be that period of utter isolation from the material world. | | | What the spies and their generation failed to understand is that the entire point of entering the Holy Land is to sanctify the material aspects of life. |

| | THE MARONITES OF THE HOLY LAND |
| | The future of the Maronite Church in the Holy Land, however, is nevertheless uncertain and is bound to that of the rest of Christians. | | | Before that day, the Maronites of the Holy Land were subject to the Maronite archbishop of Tyre and the rarity of the latter's visits, mostly due to the political problems in the region, had negative and often serious consequences over the church. | | | Since the forming of the Maronite Archdiocese See in Haifa and the Holy Land and since the titular had been residing in its diocese, the Maronite church in the nation where Jesus was born now seemed to be destined for a real renaissance. |
