Going up the Jerusalem

Did you ever wonder why Bible writers always talked about “going up to Jerusalem” (Matthew 20:17) and never down? Sometimes Jerusalem was at a lower altitude. It sits on a ridge beside the higher Mount of Olives ridge.

But there was the geographical matter, too. Anyone who wanted to get to Jerusalem had to descend into a valley and then climb Jerusalem’s hillside.
