It seems that Israel is always in a struggle or dispute with someone. Other people claim the land of Palestine and the feud seems to go on year after year. Some of the hostility and fighting that occurs today (in and around Jerusalem) is partly because of what happened thousands of years ago. In Genesis 17, God appeared to Abraham and made a covenant with him; ...
