For the upright will inhabit the earth, The blameless will remain in it
Proverbs 2:21 (The Israel Bible™)

Hear the verse in Hebrew

kee y’-sha-REEM yish-k’-nu A-retz ut-mee-MEEM yi-va-t’-RU VAH

Steadfast Commitment
The word eretz, translated here as ‘earth,’ also means ‘land.’ According to Jewish tradition, this is a reference to the Land of Israel. In this verse, King Shlomo (Solomon) reminds us of Hashem’s (God's) promise to the Israelites in the desert, that if they walk in His ways, they will remain in the land which He has given them (see Deuteronomy 4:1). The Land of Israel is promised to those who remain steadfast in their commitment to God’s words, not only in deed, but also in thought.

Thus said Hashem: I set this Yerushalayim in the midst of nations, with countries round about her
Ezekiel 5:5 (The Israel Bible™)


Hear the verse in Hebrew

KOH a-MAR a-do-NAI e-lo-HEEM ZOT y’-ru-sha-LA-im b’-TOKH ha-go-YIM sam-TEE-ha us-vee-vo-TE-ha a-ra-TZOT

The Center of the World
Hashem (God) tells Yechezkel (Ezekiel) that He has set Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) at the center of the world, with the rest of the countries around it. In medieval times, Yerushalayim was literally thought of as the center of the world, and maps were drawn to reflect that understanding. Yerushalayim remains the religious and spiritual center of the world as it says in Isaiah 2:3 "For instruction shall come forth from Tzion, the word of Hashem from Yerushalayim." Indeed the major monotheistic religions of the world consider Yerushalayim to be their holy city!
