We have all been watching the building interest in a new Jewish Temple on the temple mount in Israel. A few days ago, DTTO eNews reported that the Shilo Tabernacle had been found. And it was at that archaeological site that Housing and Construction Minister, Uri Ariel, stated his view that a real Jewish temple needed to be built on the Temple Mount.
Israeli minister: We should rebuild Jerusalem Temple
An Israeli cabinet minister last week
publicly stated that perhaps the time has come to rebuild the
biblical Temple on Jerusalem's Temple Mount.
Most Israelis has no aspirations of
rebuilding the Temple. Even among those who would like to see the
Temple restored, most do not believe Israel can undertake something
so controversial absent a direct act of God.
But that didn't stop Housing and
Construction Minister Uri Ariel (Jewish Home) from stating that "we
need to build a real Temple on the Temple Mount."
Ariel was speaking at a press event in
the Samarian community of Shilo, where archaeologists have uncovered
remains of the biblical Tabernacle that was located there for
hundreds of years before King David's conquest of Jerusalem.
