Jerusalem syndrome From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jerusalem syndrome is a group of mental phenomena involving the presence of religiously-themed ideas or experiences that are triggered by a visit to the city of Jerusalem. It is not endemic to one single religion or denomination but has affected Jews, Christians, and Muslims of many different backgrounds. Man who claims to be the messiah in Tel Aviv, 2010
What it means

A Wikipedia-style entry about Jerusalem syndrome is paired with a photo of a bearded man dressed like Jesus, sitting on the pavement and gesturing to passersby. The joke comes from presenting an extreme religious delusion as a clinical phenomenon, with the image serving as an illustrative example of someone claiming to be the messiah. It is used as an absurd reaction to someone becoming excessively religious or acting as though they have a divine mission.
