"This is so exciting, holding a book with almost 100,000 signatures of people from all over the world, who signed their name on the Jerusalem Covenant," said Glick upon presentation of the Covenant. "Jerusalem is the city of peace," he continued, "and here we see the words of the prophets materializing and becoming a reality, all nations coming together and signing the Jerusalem Covenant between God and Jerusalem and the world."
 
The Jerusalem Covenant was originally written in 1992 by Deputy Chief Justice Rabbi Menachem Elon to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Jerusalem's reunification. The Covenant is intended as a renewal of the original Biblical covenant between God and the people of Israel.
 
In 2013, Israeli NGO Israel365 launched a project to bring the Jerusalem Covenant to the hearts of Israel supporters throughout the world. In its first year, the initiative garnered 10,000 signatures; the number has annually doubled ever since, growing from 23,000 in 2014 to over 50,000 signatures last year. This year, the number of signatures reached over 93,000. Signatories hail from over 100 countries, from Albania to Zimbabwe.
 
Each year, the printed collection of signatures, bound together in a book, are presented to a different member of Knesset. Last year, Israel365 staff presented the Covenant to Speaker of the Knesset Yuli Edelstein. This year, the Covenant was given to MK Rabbi Yehudah Glick in recognition of his work to reconnect the Jewish people with Jerusalem and the Temple Mount.
 
"I wish for Israel365 that you should succeed in putting out the next copy, by the end of the jubilee year, with a million signatures," he added. "That would be the opening of a new era."
 
Rabbi Tuly Weisz added, "Signing the Jerusalem Covenant gives Israel's supporters a chance to make their voices heard, and to tell the world that Jerusalem is, and always will be, the Biblical heritage of the Jewish people."
