The '''City of David''' is the name King [[David]] of ancient Israel gave to the fortress he captured from the Jebusites. This stronghold, originally called the City of Zion, was a mountain fortress built on Mount Zion in the southeastern part of Jerusalem. The Bible prophesied that just as King David built [[Zion]], [[Jesus Christ]]—the spiritual David—would also establish the [[spiritual Zion]].
