Jérusalem, ville trois fois sainte

Description

The representation of the three monotheistic religions present in the holy city, from Chagall's paintings to cultural objects and icons.

Born in the Mediterranean, Judaism, Christianity and Islam share a common foundation that materializes Jerusalem, the thrice-holy city. An ideal field of observation for revealing the points of convergence and divergence between the three religions of the Book, a place that receives media coverage, Jerusalem, through its history, its topography, and its current events, is both a material and spiritual witness to the complexity of the meeting points between the three monotheisms. This book offers keys to reading and raises questions, in the comparative perspective adopted by the Mucem, by inviting specialists from the three religions and from Jerusalem.
