>Temple’s Location Found

>According to an Israeli archaeologist, the real location of the Temple has been found. Prof. Joseph Patrich, an archaeologist and professor at Hebrew University, used maps created in 1866 by a British explorer and passages from the Jewish Mishnah to pinpoint the exact location of the Temple.

Today, many people believe that the Temple built by King Solomon and rebuilt by the people who returned from exile in Babylon was on the site of the present Muslim Dome of the Rock. However, according to Patrich, the location of the original temple was outside the area where the Dome of the Rock is located.

Although Patrich said his study of the location of the Temple was strictly academic and that no political connotations should be attributed to his research, in this case, it is impossible to separate politics from religion. If the original Temple was located outside the area where the Dome of the Rock is located, then a new Temple could be built without destroying the Muslim holy site.

    >August 31st 2009I dreamed a dream last night in which I saw that the temple that has a dome on top of it was blown up from the inside with a rocket. The rocket flew all the way from the dome of the rock to the East Gate of the ancient temple of Jerusalem exposing the sealed doors. The temple was already built but both houses were adjacent to each other and connected by tunnels or pathways. Then I went inside the temple by the normal doorway or entrance to the west side of the sealed doors. I had to descend under the basement of the temple and as I went through under it I was carrying in my arms a man-child full of light to light the way under the temple and I saw in one tunnel thereof a fountain of clear water running under the temple like a shallow river from the East side. It was winter time then; and I had to cross over it. I thought It would be freezing cold to the touch, for I had no shoes. But as I stepped through it was not that cold, then I proceeded through to find the people that were wandering lost as a result of the blast.malkiyahu@yahoo.com
