An easy to understand and simple to build model of the second Holy Temple of Jerusalem.
The Original Holy Temple in Jerusalem was the center of Israelite Jewish worship, primarily for the offering of sacrifices known as the Korbanot and was located on Jerusalem's Temple Mount.
As glorious and elaborate as the Temple was, its most important room contained almost no furniture at all. Known as the Holy of Holies (Kodesh Kodashim), it housed the two tablets of the Ten Commandments.
The holiest land in the world is the land of Israel. In the land of Israel the holiest city is Jerusalem. In Jerusalem the holiest place was the Temple, and in the Temple the holiest spot was the Holy of Holies....
An easy to understand and simple to build model of the second Holy Temple of Jerusalem. The temple was build by King Herod in 516 BCE and was the 2nd Temple to be built, after the previous one was destroyed by the Babylon s. It was the center of Israelite Jewish worship, primarily for the offering of sacrifices known as the Korbanot and was located on Jerusalem's Temple Mount. As glorious and elaborate as the Temple was, its most important room contained almost no furniture at all. Known as the Holy of Holies (Kodesh Kodashim), it housed the two tablets of the Ten Commandments. Unfortunately, the tablets disappeared when the Babylonians destroyed the Temple, and during the Second Temple era, the Holy of Holies was a small, entirely bare room. Only once a year, on Yom Kippur, the High Priest would enter this room and pray to God on Israel's behalf. A remarkable monologue by a Hasidic rabbi in the Yiddish play The Dybbuk conveys a sense of what the Jewish throngs worshiping at the Temple must have experienced during this ceremony: God's world is great and holy. The holiest land in the world is the land of Israel. In the land of Israel the holiest city is Jerusalem. In Jerusalem the holiest place was the Temple, and in the Temple the holiest spot was the Holy of Holies.... To this day, traditional Jews pray three times a day for the Temple's restoration. During the centuries the Muslims controlled Palestine, two mosques were built on the site of the Jewish Temple and Today, for political reason, the Temple cannot be rebuilt in the foreseeable future.
