Deadly Tell clash deepens West Bank tensions near Nablus

Scripture repeatedly foretells Jerusalem and the surrounding land as "a cup of trembling" and "a burdensome stone" for all peoples, and ongoing unrest in the West Bank reflects the persistent turmoil surrounding Israel's land in the last days.
