First, I looked for Metropolitan George Khodr\u2019s book \u201cAl-Quds\u201d, the introduction of which was written by the poet Mahmoud Darwish. I did not find it. I looked for another book, about \u201cProphecy and Politics\u201d by \u201cGrace Halsell\u201d. I did not find it either. In my house, books walk from one place to another, sometimes unbeknown to me, and sometimes they walk out with a friend of mine; they walk out never to come back! Ultimately, I found Stephen Sizer\u2019s book \u201cChristian Zionism, Road-Map to Armageddon?\u201d which brother Dr. Nicolas Abu-Mrad worked hard on translating it into Arabic (distributed by An-Nour Orthodox Coop). I finished the book today.
