Description
עברית: חורבות בניין שהיה ידוע בכינויים 'מלון הגאולה' או 'בית ה144 אלף'. הבניין הוקם על ידי ז'אן מרקוס, אך היא בנייתו מעולם לא הושלמה. חורבותיו שכנו במשך שנים רבות בצומת הרחובות קינג ג'ורג' וממילא, בפינת גן העצמאות.
English: ruins of redemption hotel, aka "house of the 144.000" after the biblical verse Revelation 7:4 ("And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:"), built by Jeanne Merkus. In the back can be seen Heichal Shlomo, the seat of the chief rabbinate, which was completed in 1958 and left the "Prima Kings" Hotel.
Français : sur cette photo on peut voir les ruines de l'hotel de la rédemption également connu sous le nom de "hôtel des 144.000" d'après le verset Apocalypse 7,4 ("Et j'entendis le nombre de ceux qui avaient été marqués du sceau, cent quarante-quatre mille, de toutes les tribus des fils d'Israël.") dont la construction a été entreprise par Jeanne Merkus mais jamais achevée, faute de moyens.
