Excerpt: Bethlehem (Arabic:, .), lit "House of Meat"; Hebrew:, Beit Le m or Modern Hebrew Beyt Le em, lit "House of Bread;" Greek: Bethleem) is a Palestinian city in the central West Bank, approximately 8 kilometers (5.0 mi) south of Jerusalem, with a population of about 30,000 people. It is the capital of the Bethlehem Governorate of the Palestinian National Authority and a hub of Palestinian culture and tourism. The Hebrew Bible identifies Beit Lehem as the city David was from and the location where he was crowned as the king of Israel. The New Testament Gospels of Matthew and Luke identify Bethlehem as the birthplace of Jesus of Nazareth. The town is inhabited by one of the oldest Christian communities in the world, though the size of the community has shrunk due to emigration..
