The Jebusites

The Jebusites occupied Jerusalem before King David conquered it. They represent the fortress of knowledge, innovation, and influence over culture.

Modern-Day Interpretation

This sphere includes:

  • Teachers and educators

  • Researchers and scientists

  • ICT experts and innovators

  • Engineers and inventors

Narrative

Education is the great equalizer — the bridge from poverty to possibility. Technology can connect slum children to global opportunities. Science can provide solutions to hunger, disease, and climate change. The Jebusites remind us that knowledge must be used with wisdom to build rather than destroy.
