| | B.C., Jerusalem became the spiritual and political capital of the Hebrews. | | | Muslims, who believe that the city was visited by Muhammad, treated Jerusalem favorably after they captured it in 637, making it the chief shrine after Mecca. | | | Jewish immigration accelerated (especially from the time of the Egyptian occupation of Jerusalem by Muhammad Ali in 1832–41), and by 1900, Jews made up the largest community in the city and expanded settlement outside the Old City walls. |

| | According to Islam, the prophet Muhammad was miraculously transported from Mecca to Jerusalem, and it was from there that he made his ascent to heaven. | | | While it is the heavenly rather than the earthly Jerusalem that is emphasized by the Church, places mentioned in the New Testament as the sites of Jesus' ministry have drawn pilgrims and devoted worshipers for centuries. | | | For Christians, Jerusalem is the place where Jesus lived, preached, died and was resurrected. |

| | [minstrels] Jerusalem -- William Blake |
| | Jerusalem is paradise, with Jesus Christ reigning supreme. | | | From: Sally Jerusalem - first showed up in the movie "Chariots of Fire" - It certainly is a hymn in the Church of England hymnal. | | | This defines how Blake (a believer in "free love") interpreted "Jerusalem", which is of course a reference to the New Jerusalem of the Book of Revelation (the antithesis of organized religion). |

| | The title of King of Jerusalem continued to be borne in a spirit of rivalry: by the Kings of Cyprus belonging to the House of Lusignan; and by the two Houses of Anjou which claimed to hold their rights from Mary of Antioch. | | | The Church, at this period, was also a power independent of the kings, and, with the exception of the king, the Patriarch of Jerusalem was the most important personage in the realm. | | | By a treaty concluded with the Sultan of Egypt, Frederick regained Jerusalem, and on 18 March, 1229, without any religious ceremony whatever, assumed the royal crown in the church of the Holy Sepulchre. |
