"I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you. Again I will build you, and you shall be rebuilt, O virgin of Israel!"  Jeremiah 31:3-4

Nearly 80 years after Yemenite Jews were evacuated from the Arab neighborhood of Silwan, a group of activists has moved into the community’s former synagogue.

According to a news report by The Times of Israel, members of the Ateret Kohanim group, whose goal is to help settle Jews in all parts of Jerusalem’s Old City, moved into the synagogue building Wednesday morning at 1 am.

The new residents were greeted by rock-throwing from local Arabs.
