The outline of a sandal sole contained within a map of modern Israel. Text from Joshua 1:3, "Every place on which the soles of your feet shall tread I have given you" also appears. A number of ancient foot-, or sandal-shaped, enclosures are located in the Jordan valley. These were among the first sites built by the People of Israel upon entering Canaan. The structures are thought to symbolize ownership of territory, control over an enemy, connection between people and land, and presence of the Deity. The Bible also has a number of references to the importance of the "foot" as a symbol: of ownership over Canaan, the bond between the People of Israel and their land, the link between the People and God's promise to inherit the land, defeating the enemy 'underfoot', and the Temple imaged as a foot. |
