Place names can become laden with religious and political emotion and meaning. The “Holy Land” came under one power after another over 3000 years. Christians, different Muslim Empires and finally European colonialist powers occupied the land. Conquerors generally paid little attention to “Biblical names.” The colonial powers, however, brought increased interest/politicization to some biblical names. How has this impacted the modern world?
