For billions of religious believers, Jews, Christians and Muslims, Israel is the Holy Land. There are millions of followers of less well-known faiths-Samaritans, Druze and Baha'i-who also revere the Land of Israel. Many of the events of the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament and even passages in the Quran (Islam's scriptures) took place in Israel. It may also be said that Israel is a crossroads for traditional religion and New Age spirituality. This volume introduces young readers to the narratives of the different faiths which view this sliver of a country as sacred ground.
