Evidence for the real site of the biblical temple in Jerusalem |

A new and accurate evaluation is essential regarding the site of the former Temples in Jerusalem. Neither the Dome of the Rock near the center of the Haram esh-Sharif in Jerusalem, nor the Al Aqsa Mosque occupying the southern side of the Haram (nor ANY area within the four walls of that Haram) was the real spot in Jerusalem where the holy Temples of God were located. |

I agree with only one thing that you said, peace must reign again in Israel.
As someone who has lived and studied archeology in Jerusalem, I can tell you that your piece was almost entirely built on false evaluations and it was painfully evident that you have never been there.
While i do support a palestinian state and reckognize the lack of democracy plaguing Israel today, that post was just such a flagrent misrepresentation of the truth that I just had to say something.
Oh by the way after Herod re-build the second temple around year 0 (over the exact spot of the first temple) he lest maps and written acounts behind that we have in our posesion today.
you are just wrong. |
