The Beit HaMikdash. The Holy Temple.
The center of Jewish longing and aspiration.
In
this visually stunning, meticulously researched work, the Temple Mount
and the Beit HaMikdash - the place where Heaven touches Earth, where
mortals can feel eternity - comes to vivid life.
A breathtaking trip through history.
Here,
deep beneath the sacred earth, stands the Foundation Stone, where
Creation began. Here Abraham bound Isaac upon the altar, and King
Solomon built the first Temple. From this mountaintop the magnificent
Second Temple cast its light to the world, and it was here that the
Roman legions burned and plundered the Temple's treasures.
Forgotten and neglected by the rest of the world, Jewish eyes and hearts have always turned to this holy mountain.
Now, the Temple Mount comes to life before our eyes.
An important work of scholarship and research.
