Jerusalem

Herod the Great was the king, he ruled Jerusalem. Herod was a "client king" propped up by Rome. The relationship is sort of like the concept of "client states" during the cold war, when the Soviet Union and the US each propped up "client countries" to serve as buffers against the other. We didn't quite rule them, but on occasion, we deposed their leaders. In the case of Herod's kingdom, it was a buffer-state between the Roman and Persian empires.

The question might have been intended to get the answer "the Sanhedrin". The Great Sanhedrin in Jerusalem served as both the legislature and supreme court. They could enact laws, and they could try cases, but they did not administer the law. The Great Sanhedrin was made up of 71 members. It apparently met daily except on the Sabbath and Holy days, and only it could try capital cases. Note that each city had a lesser Sanhedrin of 23 members handle local cases, and civil cases could be tried by a panel of just 3 judges, a beit din (house of justice). There was a right of appeal, not horribly different from the way modern court systems operate. There's a whole tractate of the Mishna (written after the Temple was destroyed) on how the Sanhedrin operated -- written when the memory was still alive but fading.

Acts 15 in the New Testament outlines the meeting of the Jerusalem Council. The council was called because Gentiles were being told they had to be circumcised (as part of the law of Moses) to be saved.

The result or "accomplishment" of the council's meeting is known as the apostolic decree (Acts 15:20, 29; 21:25). It is a list of requirements for Gentiles.

Daily life in Jerusalem is a vibrant blend of cultures, religions, and traditions. Residents navigate a city steeped in history, with daily activities often influenced by the presence of numerous religious sites and diverse communities. Markets bustle with vendors selling fresh produce and local crafts, while cafes serve as social hubs for conversation and connection. The city's unique rhythm is marked by the calls to prayer, religious ceremonies, and frequent cultural events, reflecting its rich tapestry of life.

The building is built of stone and glass.

The roof is covered with a very thin layer of gold.

Absalom was ostracized from Jerusalem after he killed his half-brother Amnon in revenge for Amnon's rape of their sister Tamar. Following this act, Absalom fled to Geshur to escape King David's wrath. After three years, he was allowed to return to Jerusalem but was initially kept from seeing David's face, which further solidified his estrangement from the king and the court. Absalom's actions ultimately led to a rebellion against David, deepening the rift between him and his father.

The particular invasion of Judah being referenced was performed by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E. Large numbers of Judeans were deported to the city of Babylon, especially the Judean aristocracy.

The Dome of the Rock Shrine does not relate to Judaism. It relates to Islam.

The actual "rock" in the Dome of the Rock, is the considered by Jews to be the holiest part of the Temple Mount and therefore the holiest place in the world for Judaism. (However, since Jews believe that only the High Priest can visit such a holy site, Jews are forbidden by religious law to come any closer than the Western Wall.) The Shrine itself is a Muslim holy site.

The distance between Cyrene and Jerusalem is approximately 1,000 kilometers (about 620 miles) if measured in a straight line. However, the actual travel distance would vary depending on the specific route taken, which might include land and sea travel. In ancient times, this journey would likely involve multiple modes of transport and take considerable time.
