Ezra's Tomb, the shrine of a shared identity

These stunning pictures of Ezra's Tomb in Iraq, provide a fascinating insight into Iraqi-Jewish history, whilst demonstrating the need for us to preserve and safeguard the ties which bind us together as a people. 

                                        

These scripted tablets from inside of Ezra's Tomb, illustrate the rich ties that exist in the family of our shared Semitic languages; those of Aramaic, Hebrew and Arabic. 

  

If you could walk in the footsteps of strangers or if walls could speak their truth, then Ezra's Tomb would keep on echoing throughout the centuries.
