Hi Kevin, You are wrong and right--In the time of Jesus, the area was the land of Judea, and Jerusalem was a city there in that land. But you have to remember, the Book of Mormon peoples left Jerusalem 600 years--repeat, 600 YEARS-- before the time of Jesus. Things were not the same THEN! So all your rantings about Jerusalem and Judea and etc are null and void--have no meaning. Sorry, but nice try.
