We are gathered today to commemorate 60 years of diplomatic relations between Korea and Israel and to pray for the peace of Israel and the world.

Korea and Israel share many commonalities.
Just like Israel, which has faced the challenge of being surrounded by Arab nations, historically, Korea has also faced the challenge of being surrounded by many nations including China, Russia, and Japan.

Additionally, like Israel which established its independence from the British mandate on May 14, 1948, Korea became independent from the trusteeship of the U. S. to establish its government on August 15, 1948. Both Israel and Korea were independent nations founded on democracy.

74 years ago, nobody expected Israel to become an independent nation.
It was the almighty God who made this possible.
74 years ago, Korea also established the government of the Republic of Korea.
This too was a sovereign act of God.

All Jews recite Deuteronomy chapter 6 verse 4 as their creed. ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.’ (Shema Yisra’el, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai Echad)
It is this faith, which has brought God’s blessing and protection upon Israel to this day. This faith is the true strength and power of the Jewish people.

This faith is the great spiritual inheritance of Israel and is also the spiritual inheritance of all Christians.

The Bible tells us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

We must pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the war in Ukraine to end swiftly. We must also pray for the peace of Korea, the world’s only divided nation. The peace of Jerusalem will bring the peace of the world.
