The Jerusalem Temple and the Temple Mount
Collected Essays
Seiten
Die genaue Lage und Ausrichtung des Zweiten Jüdischen Tempels auf dem Tempelberg wird durch archäologische, literarische und astronomische Quellen belegt. In 16 Studien, versehen mit zahlreichen Illustrationen, zeichnet Joseph Patrich die architektonische Entwicklung des Tempels und des Tempelbergs nach.
The Temple eclipsed in its splendor and importance all other institutions of the Jews, both in the Land of Israel and in the Diaspora. It was the center of religious and national life; a goal of pilgrimage. Already in the 19th century, 'The Quest for the Temple' had spread beyond the limited circles of Jewish commentators, becoming an interest also of Christian scholars. The Dead Sea Scrolls, especially the Temple Scroll, first published in 1977, brought new source materials pertaining to the pre-Herodian Temple to the fore. Some water cisterns still extant under the upper platform of the present Muslim compound are hiding a telling story, left unnoticed so far. Its unravelling in an interdisciplinary approach, an attentive re-reading of all available literary sources, and a re-evaluation of the said archaeological remains, lie at the core of the studies presented here.
