Best Answer

Yes and No. There are several different cities that served as capitals of Ancient Israel such as Giv'ah (Gibeah) during the Saul, Hebron during the early Davidic Kingdom leadership, Samaria for the Northern Kingdom of Israel, and Jerusalem for the remainder of the Davidic Kingdom to the Babylonian Exile and during the Hasmonean Kingdom. Jerusalem is the current capital of the State of Israel although most nations refuse to officially recognize it as such because of its disputed status and maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv.
