Location
1. Dominus Flevit (Latin for "the Lord wept") is a Roman Catholic church on the Mount of Olives, opposite the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem in Israel.
2. It's located halfway down the western slope of the Mount of Olives and marks the place where Jesus wept over Jerusalem's future fate.
3. The Triumphal Entry begins at the upper part of the Mount of Olives and winds its way down to the bottom of the mountain to the Garden of Gethsemane.
Historical Background
1. The present church (finished in 1955) was built upon the foundations of an earlier Byzantine church from the 5th century, which, like most churches, faced east.
2. During the Crusader era (1095-1291 AD), people began commemorating the location.
3. After the fall of Jerusalem in 1187, the church fell into ruin.
4. Around 1525 AD, the Turks claimed to have built a mosque or madrasah using the remains of the earlier church.
5. For quite some time, the Franciscans could not obtain the ruins of the original Dominus Flevit Church. In 1891, they solved this problem by purchasing a plot of land nearby and building a small chapel on it.
6. In 1913, a private home was built in front of the Franciscan chapel. The home went to the Sisters of Saint Joseph, though they eventually sold it to a Portuguese woman.
7. During the sanctuary's construction, archaeologists uncovered artifacts dating back to the Canaanite period, as well as tombs from the Second Temple and Byzantine eras.
​8. Other artifacts found were a tomb from the bronze era and a necropolis (building used to encase tombs) dating back between 136 BC and 300 AD. This particular necropolis spanned two different periods, as suggested by the two very different tomb styles. The Second Temple era tombs are in the Koki style and the Byzantine period tombs had an arcosolium from the 4th century.
9. In 1940, the Benedictine Sisters sold part of the property to the Franciscans. The old boundary wall was moved at this time to make the division. In 1953, the Franciscans began construction of another wall. While digging the foundations, workers unearthed ancient tombs.
10. The modern church, designed by the Italian architect Antonio Barluzzi and constructed between 1953 and 1955, is held in trust by the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land.

4. Outside the Modern Church
It was designed by the Italian architect Antonio Barluzzi and constructed between 1953 and 1955. It is held in trust by the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land. It is shaped in the form of a tear. Signifying Christ weeping over Jerusalem.
5. Pillars from the Crusader PeriodIt appears these pillars were part of a Crusader Church from around 1150 AD, built over the ruins of the original Byzantine Church.
6. Mosaic from the Byzantine Church
Just to the left of the modern church is a Byzantine mosaic floor dating to the beginning of the fourth or fifth century AD.
7. Inside the Modern Church
Apse of the Byzantine Church
Ceiling-The ceiling is covered with gold. This color represents heavenly tears, namely, those of Jesus as He wept for Jerusalem. Four carved reliefs on the sides of the ceiling show the (1) Triumphal Entry, (2) the destruction of Jerusalem, (3) Mary, the mother of Jesus and other women, and (4) Peter, James, and John, disciples of Jesus. The western window of the Dominus Flevit Church provides a beautiful view of the Temple Mount. A mosaic on the altar of the Dominus Flevit Church illustrates a hen gathering her chickens, according to Luke 13:34.
8. Crown of Thorns Tree
Right in front of the modern church is a tree with huge thorns. It was from a tree like this that the crown of thorns was most likely made and placed on Jesus' head.

Important information for your viewers.. this church of Dominus Flevit is a Catholic Church. We have yet to find any Protestant churches in the holy land, I wonder why 🤔

I agree about the lack of knowledge of the OT leads to not have a full understanding the NT. I love to study the books of the OT, the prophets all speak of the coming of the Messiah. Love to make the connections. God bless you and your ministry.

Then he [Yeshua] asked them, “But who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." Matthew 16:15-16 (NLT)🙏❤

[@michaeld2716]

Thank you. I learned alot. I was surprised by some of your facts. Very well done. Would you consider using a KJV or NKJV Bible for reference? The G_d of Israel has a personality. When words are changed, we lose that direct verbiage.

[@LuckyLadyZee]

Personally, I go between the ESV, CSB, KJV and the interlinear. I use Strongs concordance as well as logos bible software and E-Sword app.

Thank you. Only, you should use King James Bible, since its the only Bible that comes from Textus Receptus, all other modern Bibles are Alexandrian manuscript perversions and are not the word of God. Just check online, King James Bible vs modern versions and see changes of words and omissions and additions to text, its horrible.
