Usage: The term Ἰερουσαλήμ is used in the New Testament to refer to the city of Jerusalem, often highlighting its religious, historical, and prophetic significance. It appears in various contexts, including Jesus' ministry, the early church, and eschatological prophecies.

Context: Jerusalem, known as Ἰερουσαλήμ in Greek, is a city of profound historical and theological importance. It is situated in the Judean hills and has been a focal point for Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. In the Bible, Jerusalem is first mentioned in the context of Melchizedek, king of Salem (Genesis 14:18), and later becomes the political and spiritual center of Israel under King David, who established it as the capital (2 Samuel 5:6-7).

In the New Testament, Jerusalem is the setting for many pivotal events in the life of Jesus Christ. It is where He was presented at the Temple as a child (Luke 2:22), where He taught and performed miracles, and where He was crucified and resurrected. The city is also the birthplace of the early Christian church, as the apostles received the Holy Spirit at Pentecost in Jerusalem (Acts 2:1-4).

Jerusalem holds eschatological significance as well, being central to prophecies concerning the end times. In Revelation, the New Jerusalem is depicted as a heavenly city descending from God (Revelation 21:2), symbolizing the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises to His people.

Throughout the Bible, Jerusalem is portrayed as a city chosen by God, a place of divine presence, and a symbol of God's covenant with His people. It is both a literal city and a metaphor for spiritual truths, representing peace, redemption, and the eternal dwelling of God with humanity.
