Israel: The Promised Land
Introduction
Israel is considered as The Promised Land. Most of its history is rooted from the first civilizations written on the Bible. Many prominent and holy Bible characters had flourished and made color to the religious literature of the world. This is also the home of the three great religions in the world: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Concerning modern history, the country was always a known name in news due to its involvement with skirmishes with other Islamic countries and its neighbor Palestine.
Before one can study and read significant literature from Israel, let us first acknowledge the history and culture of Israel.
