GUSH HALAV, UPPER GALILEE – SPRING, 33 C.E. The rhythmic clanging of his father’s chisel was the heartbeat of the morning. Eleven-year-old Yossi sat perched on a massive, sun-warmed basalt boulder just outside the synagogue’s construction site. He leaned forward, crushing a sprig of wild hyssop between his palms, the peppery scent mingling with the fine white dust of pulverized limestone that hung in the air.
JISH, UPPER GALILEE – SUNDAY, DAWN A dark silhouette emerged from the mist. Ibrahim, a man with tough hands and a weathered face, approached the van. “Ya hala... bil-akhir,” he said, his voice a low growl. “About time. The plane’s waiting.” Samir scanned the farm.

FRENCH HILL, JERUSALEM – FRIDAY, 3:45 P.M. Fifteen minutes before he died, Ahmed wiped rain from his eyes and jammed the bulldozer’s throttle forward. The site was deserted. The other workers had left hours ago for the weekend, but Ahmed needed the overtime. It was a cold Friday afternoon in March 1999, and his son’s medication had to be paid for by Monday morning. The engine roared, flooding the cab with the stench of diesel and wet earth as he drove the blade toward the final ridge of Judean limestone. He braced for the familiar jar of impact, but it never came. The machine lurched as the metal shovel punched through the rock face and plunged into a void.
