- Great and Holy is God's world --- and the Land of Israel
is the holiest land in His world. In the Land of Israel is the
holy city of Jerusalem and inside Jerusalem the holiest place
is the site of the Temple. And in the heart of the Temple was
the Holy of Holies, resting place of the Ark of the Covenant
--- the footstool of the Almighty.
-
- For more than 350 years the Temple Solomon built stood atop
Mount Moriah - until the Babylonians destroyed it in 586 BC,
and took the Children of Israel into captivity.
-
- On their return, the Jews worked for 23 years to build another
Temple. Centuries later this Second Temple was again rebuilt,
by King Herod (37-4 BCE) - and this time the work took 46 years.
-
- Then as a Great Jewish Revolt shook the land, the Roman legions
mercilessly broke into the sacred precinct on Tu b'Av - the fifteenth
day of the month of Av 70 CE - and razed the Holy Temple to the
ground.
-
- Today the Western Wall, the so-called Wailing Wall, is all
that remains of the Second Temple. And to this day, Jews around
the world pray three times a day for the Temple's restoration.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
They that love thee shall prosper
Peace be within thy walls,
and prosperity within thy palaces.
Psalm 122
-
- Take a fascinating, unforgettable journey back in time to
the depths and mysteries of Jerusalem Temple.
