The Holy Land is an area roughly located between the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern bank of the Jordan River, traditionally synonymous with the biblical Land of Israel and the region of Palestine. It is considered holy by Jews, Christians, Muslims, and Bahá'ís due to its significant religious and historical importance. The land is home to Jerusalem, the holiest city to Judaism, and the location of the First and Second Temples, as well as other revered pilgrimage sites. The concept of a holy land made significant by being the earthly dwelling of the God of Israel is present in Judaism as early as the 6th century BCE, and the Tanakh explicitly refers to it as "holy land" in Zechariah 2:16.learn more on wikipedia
