Prayer at David's Tomb
On Mount Zion in Jerusalem there is a historic mistake. The Bible tells us King David was buried in David's city - the lower part of the old Jerusalem tel. Crusaders mistakenly thought it was on Mt Zion and built a memorial site to him there. That mistake continues today, with some Hasidim Jewish groups venerating the spot by making it a synagogue and a place of prayer. They usually pray with a rhythmic swaying, but this group really had it going when we visited.
