The event, chaired by Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, was attended by no fewer than 25 Knesset members from eight different factions, including three government ministers.

New caucus chairman MK Robert Ilatov (Israel Beiteinu) said he would work to further strengthen ties to the 32 sister caucuses in parliaments around the world in a broader effort to combat global boycotts of the Jewish state.

"There are many challenges that lie ahead, but I have no doubt that together, we will succeed in defending and blessing the State of Israel and the well-being of its people," Ilatov told his fellow Israeli lawmakers and the numerous Christian leaders at the gathering.

Former Israeli Ambassador to the US Michael Oren, who today serves as a Knesset member with the Kulanu Party, also addressed the gathering, noting that as a Christian nation "US-Israel relations go back to spiritual ties. …We are on a holy mission to ensure the Jewish state remains strong and beloved."

Oren further pointed out that were Jesus to come today to Bethlehem (or any number of other places He ministered, like the Temple Mount) He'd be labeled a "Jewish settler."

Caucus director Josh Reinstein summed up the event by stating that "Israel is now dependent on Christian support. We will be tested like we never have before."
