The Cave of the Patriarchs (Me’arat Hamachpelah) stands at the entrance to Hebron, an ancient city in the southern West Bank, 30km south of Jerusalem. It is the traditional burial site of four biblical couples - Adam and Eve, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, and Jacob and Leah.
These were the founders of the Jewish nation and the forebearers of Christianity and Judaism. As descendants of Abraham’s son Ishmael, Muslims also hold the tomb sacred. It has long been a tradition to pray at the Cave of the Patriarchs for spiritual comfort, blessings, guidance, and mercy.
The Burial Site of Biblical Forefathers
The site features in the Old Testament, several times. In Genesis, we read how Abraham bought the cave and surrounding plot of land as a burial place for his wife, Sarah. Later he was buried beside her, and so too were future patriarchs and matriarchs. Caleb, one of the scouts sent by Moses into the Land of Canaan, stopped at Hebron to pray at the patriarchs’ tombs. The Cave of the Patriarchs is also mentioned in the Book of Zohar, as the gateway to the Garden of Eden.
History of the Cave of the Patriarchs, Hebron
The cave itself lies deep beneath the ground. According to legend, no one is known to have entered the cave and survived, except for Rabbi Azulai. 300 years ago, the Rabbi was lowered into the cave to retrieve the Turkish Sultan’s sword. The Rabbi came out alive, only to die a week later. In the 1st-century Herod built a structure above the cave with 6ft-thick stone walls.
The Herodian building has survived surrounding and protecting the cave to this day. At some point, a mosque was built within the Herodian walls. In 1100, Crusaders took over the compound, but less than a hundred years later, the site was once again a Muslim place of worship. Under Muslim rule, Jewish access to the cave was denied in the 1490s.
For about 500 years Jews visiting the site could only approach as far as the seventh step on the stairway leading to the compound. Despite this restriction, Jews continued to pray at the Cave of the Patriarchs. After the Six-Day War in 1967, the site fell under Israeli jurisdiction, and Jews could once again access the compound.
The Cave of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs Today
The 1995 Wye River Accords gave the Muslim administrative body control of the southeastern section, including the cave entrance and the tombs of Isaac and Rebecca. On ten auspicious religious days a year, Jews are given access to the Muslim section of the site. The rest of the site is open daily to all visitors.
Visiting the Cave of the Patriarchs should be done with a guided tour, as it is in a politically vulnerable area. It is possible to visit the nearby Jewish community of Kiryat Arba, the Jewish Quarter of Hebron, or attend a religious service at the Cave of Machpelah synagogue.
Tomb of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs. This site is the resting place of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs of the Biblical founding fathers and mothers and considered the second-holiest place in Judaism. Some 4,000 years ago, the Patriarch Abraham chose this place as the burial place for his wife Sarah and purchased it and the surrounding field for 400 silver sheqalim, a huge sum of money in today’s terms. The massive and impressive structure atop the cave was built some 2,000 years ago during the reign of King Herod in the Second Temple period. This structure is the world’s only public building that has stood totally intact for more than 2,000 years and is currently in use for the same purpose for which it was built. It continues to serve as a memorial for the Patriarchs and Matriarchs, as a place of worship

I am a Christian, and first just want to thank you for taking the time to visit these sites. But second I think it's incredible to think like when I read the Bible I see these names and their stories. But seeing these sites makes it come to life, like to me it becomes very real. These types of videos make it so much more personal to me and my faith. And thirdly please stay safe and be well while making these videos.
Thank you very much
The Bible is alive. Look at what is going on

Thank you Jesus, you are the sin barer, you died for my sins that’s unconditional love for me. I appreciate everyday I get to wake up on this planet called earth. I feel very privileged to have played a part in your heavenly and earthy plan, I feel so important yet still so small in the grand scheme of things. You are massive, you’re my best friend, you have aligned the stars in my favor so many times, but this time I am ready to receive your blessings. 🫶🙏🏽

Thank you for sharing this all with us. Praise Jesus! ✝️🙏💜
Oh my father Jesus Christ you are only god in the world. Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Jesus Christ was the son of God, not God himself.
@@kennethbowen1818 Luke 7:48 jesus said "your sins are forgiven" to a women. only god can forgive sin there for jesus is god. Another example, When moses was at the burning bush and he ask god who are you he said i am and tell them my name is i am. John 8:24 jesus said "i said therefore unto to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that i am he, ye shall die in your sins" there for jesus called himself and referred to himself as god, so he is god.
Such a great tour thank you from a Christian Minister training in London UK 🇬🇧
Jesus Christ is Lord and savior, he died for our sins.
According to Jewish scriptures no one can die for your sins you need to redempt directly to God and then you'll be saved.
he did not die.
The One True Creator G_d specifically said in no uncertain terms that there is Only One G_d! And besides G_d there is NO OTHER SAVIOR! Christians are a blind people who have eyes and deaf ones who have ears!
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 43:
1And now, so said the Lord, your Creator, O Jacob, and the One Who formed you, O Israel, "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you, and I called by your name, you are Mine. אוְעַתָּ֞ה כֹּֽה־אָמַ֚ר יְהֹוָה֙ בֹּרַֽאֲךָ֣ יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב וְיֹֽצֶרְךָ֖ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אַל־תִּירָא֙ כִּ֣י גְאַלְתִּ֔יךָ קָרָ֥אתִי בְשִׁמְךָ֖ לִי־אָֽתָּה:
2When you pass through water, I am with you, and in rivers, they shall not overflow you; when you go amidst fire, you shall not be burnt, neither shall a flame burn amongst you. בכִּי־תַֽעֲבֹ֚ר בַּמַּ֙יִם֙ אִתְּךָ־אָ֔נִי וּבַנְּהָר֖וֹת לֹ֣א יִשְׁטְפ֑וּךָ כִּֽי־תֵלֵ֚ךְ בְּמוֹ־אֵשׁ֙ לֹ֣א תִכָּוֶ֔ה וְלֶֽהָבָ֖ה לֹ֥א תִבְעַר־בָּֽךְ:
3For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I have given Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead. גכִּ֗י אֲנִי֙ יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ קְד֥וֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מֽוֹשִׁיעֶ֑ךָ נָתַ֚תִּי כָפְרְךָ֙ מִצְרַ֔יִם כּ֥וּשׁ וּסְבָ֖א תַּחְתֶּֽיךָ:
4Since you are dear in My eyes, you were honored and I loved you, and I give men in your stead and nations instead of your life. דמֵֽאֲשֶׁ֨ר יָקַ֧רְתָּ בְעֵינַ֛י נִכְבַּ֖דְתָּ וַֽאֲנִ֣י אֲהַבְתִּ֑יךָ וְאֶתֵּ֚ן אָדָם֙ תַּחְתֶּ֔יךָ וּלְאֻמִּ֖ים תַּ֥חַת נַפְשֶֽׁךָ:
5Fear not for I am with you; from the east I will bring your seed, and from the west I will gather you. האַל־תִּירָ֖א כִּֽי־אִתְּךָ־אָ֑נִי מִמִּזְרָח֙ אָבִ֣יא זַרְעֶ֔ךָ וּמִֽמַּֽעֲרָ֖ב אֲקַבְּצֶֽךָּ:
6I will say to the north, "Give," and to the south, "Do not refrain"; bring My sons from afar and My daughters from the end of the earth." ואֹמַ֚ר לַצָּפוֹן֙ תֵּ֔נִי וּלְתֵימָ֖ן אַל־תִּכְלָ֑אִי הָבִ֚יאִי בָנַי֙ מֵֽרָח֔וֹק וּבְנוֹתַ֖י מִקְצֵ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ:
7Everyone that is called by My name, and whom I created for My glory, I formed him, yea I made him. זכֹּל הַנִּקְרָ֣א בִשְׁמִ֔י וְלִכְבוֹדִ֖י בְּרָאתִ֑יו יְצַרְתִּ֖יו אַף־עֲשִׂיתִֽיו:
8To bring out a blind people, who have eyes, and deaf ones who have ears. חהוֹצִ֥יא עַם־עִוֵּ֖ר וְעֵינַ֣יִם יֵ֑שׁ וְחֵֽרְשִׁ֖ים וְאָזְנַ֥יִם לָֽמוֹ:
9Were all the nations gathered together, and kingdoms assembled, who of them would tell this or let us know of the first events? Let them present their witnesses, and they shall be deemed just, and let them hear and say, "True." טכָּֽל־הַגּוֹיִ֞ם נִקְבְּצ֣וּ יַחְדָּ֗ו וְיֵאָֽסְפוּ֙ לְאֻמִּ֔ים מִ֚י בָהֶם֙ יַגִּ֣יד זֹ֔את וְרִֽאשֹׁנ֖וֹת יַשְׁמִיעֻ֑נוּ יִתְּנ֚וּ עֵֽדֵיהֶם֙ וְיִצְדָּ֔קוּ וְיִשְׁמְע֖וּ וְיֹֽאמְר֥וּ אֱמֶֽת:
10"You are My witnesses," says the Lord, "and My servant whom I chose," in order that you know and believe Me, and understand that I am He; before Me no god was formed and after Me none shall be. יאַתֶּ֚ם עֵדַי֙ נְאֻם־יְהֹוָ֔ה וְעַבְדִּ֖י אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּחָ֑רְתִּי לְמַ֣עַן תֵּ֠דְעוּ וְתַֽאֲמִ֨ינוּ לִ֚י וְתָבִ֙ינוּ֙ כִּֽי־אֲנִ֣י ה֔וּא לְפָנַי֙ לֹֽא־נ֣וֹצַר אֵ֔ל וְאַֽחֲרַ֖י לֹ֥א יִֽהְיֶֽה:
11I, I am the Lord, and besides Me there is no Savior. יאאָֽנֹכִ֥י אָֽנֹכִ֖י יְהֹוָ֑ה וְאֵ֥ין מִבַּלְעָדַ֖י מוֹשִֽׁיעַ:
See! No so-called Jesus is ever needed!!! Never has been!!! Never will be!!! We follow the instructions of the One True Creator G_d, not the lies of Christianity!
Und wieder auferstanden. Amen 🙏🏼

What a beautiful blue sky, haven't seen a sky like that for a long time here in America since they started spraying us like bugs turning our skies a milky white color
UK is just the same... the sun shines dimly behind a silver grey veil..
Excellent very beautiful Jerusalem and great camera work
The blue skys hanging above the sunshine land with building structures
Very unique..The biblical informations about the burial of our prophets and their families is great to watch and know is a must for all Christians..
Thankyou Zahi for sharing this blessed video..
Take care of yourself.. God bless you.

This is not Jerusalem
Abraham purchased the cave of Machpelah when his wife, Sarah, passed away. There are six people buried there: Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob and Leah. Rachel is buried on the way to Ephratha (Bethlehem). Since Abraham came on the scene many years after Adam and Eve, I would say that no, they are not buried there.
Especially since Adam and Eve died BEFORE the Noahic flood and that world-wide flood created a lot of sediment that probably buried all signs of pre-flood civilizations.
Good evening Zahi,,,,, thank you for this beautiful video (

it's a very beautiful thank you
Excellent video! Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
The Flood would have destroyed anything related to Adam and Eve.
Exactly!
I was thinking that too
I am a Christian, but is there any actual archaeological, historical or biblical evidence even that any of these people were actually buried here? Or is it just a tourist trap?
@@aaronkristo858 Well, another commenter made the observation that the flood, if there was one, would’ve taken care of anyone buried before it happened. In other word, they would’ve been washed away or at the very least, covered in thousands of feet of silt. This is a total gimmick.
@@aaronkristo858Yes many has used the bible and matched the places described in the bible. Theres lots of books on the subject. The youtube channel the association for biblical research is amazing.
Shalom Zahi
Thank you.🙏🙏🙏

Wow this is amazing , really Adam and Eve tomb I’m in awe.❤
As @jessemorgan2009 pointed out, anything associated with Adam and Eve would have been wiped out by the Flood.

It is the location of the field that Abraham bought to bury his wife in and where his sons buried him, the site has been venerated from antiquity

I didn't know that the tombs of Adam anḓ Eve still exists. Incredible!
If it’s Adam and Eve tomb, you would see Giants in the tomb. All creatures, including humans, were giants before the worldwide flood. and living a long time, including reptiles that kept on growing.
Imagine someday these patriarchs will rise from these tombs to reign with Jesus when he returns to Jerusalem
thanks sir show us ❤
Amen. Amen. Amen.

Your fantastic
Thanks a lot 😊
❤ from Nagaland
Greetings Zahi! Where did you hear about this being the tombs of Adam and Eve? Not challenging, just wondering what your source is as I have never heard that before.
Also, Abraham purchased the cave as well as a field. Has the field been preserved?
May God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob keep you and your family safe.
It's refers to all the sages in Judaism of the Mishna, Toseftic and Talmudic eras, spanning from the times of the final 300 years of the Second Temple until the 7th century, or c. 250 BCE - c. 625 CE.
please stay safe
Thanks Zahi. Do any of you know by any chance a lovely Jewish lady by the name of Chen, retired from the IDF living with her grandmother. If so please tell her that I am praying for her and all her family daily and I'm praying constantly for world peace. Thanks much appreciated. 🕊️🌹🇦🇺🙏💗 patiently awaiting the video.
I visited Hebron for the first time in 1986. Glad I did when I did because, being Jewish, it wouldn’t be possible today.
Sadly all children of Adam and Eve have divided themselves (due to religious indifference)
Thus the building is divided unfortunately 😢

Soon i will go there right now i am here in tel aviv when i have time i will visit in hebron ☺️
Thank you for sharing this, I was just reading about it a day ago. ♥🕊
Hebron, the land of Canaan where Sarah was buried, was bought by Abraham from Ephron the Hittite the son of Zohar for four hundred shekels of silver, witch is located in the West Bank, Palestine, about 20 miles (32 km) south of Jerusalem. It's the largest city in the West Bank. (Genesis 23:15-29)
Israel king David's palace was in Jerusalem.
May God Almighty richly bless all is my Prayer
I never thought that the tombs of Abraham, Sarah and Isaac would be known. I thought it would have been lost to time.
It's amazing to see their monuments.
What about Adam and Eve though, didn't they get monuments?
THANK YOU so much for this amazing video! I was there Nov 2022 but you’ve added more info I learned then!
Thank you
