| This image is that of Kever Rochel, the tomb of our Matriarch Rachel, whose resting-place is said, according to Torah, to be in the desert on the way to Ephrath which is Bethlehem. There, Jacob set up a monument over her grave. It is the monument of Rachel's tomb. The weathered copper inscription in Hebrew above the doorway is translated as "Rachel's tomb until today," a phrase taken from the Torah which reads in the present tense and could only prove as a testament to the Torah's truth.
