The meeting at Vance's hotel in Jerusalem also included the vice president's wife, Usha Vance, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee and other relatives of victims of the Hamas-led terror attacks in southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Earlier in the day, Vance met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog, with the US vice president describing the period following the conclusion of the ceasefire-for-hostages deal with Hamas as "days of destiny" that are "changing the face of the Middle East."

Vance ended his second day in Israel with a tour of the City of David archaeological site, which may be the location of the palace of the Biblical King David.

"Thank you for preserving this piece of world history for all the people of Abraham to admire and be inspired," Vance reportedly wrote in the archaeological site's guestbook. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
