    Extrapolated Haggadah B-A.I.-gels
    This episode is in memory of Orli Chaim Wildman Halpern, who died March 17 after a long fight against cancer. She was a self-described bold (and bald) feminist and Swiftie, who loved her dog and Lizzo. May her memory be a blessing and an inspiration.

    Wash your hands

    Wash your hands

    Join Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz recorded on Clubhouse on March 9th 2023. The Torah commands the Priests to wash their hands and feet before conducting the Temple service. The Rabbis command hand washing upon waking, before prayer, before eating and on multiple other opportunities. When I studied in the Yeshiva, I had a bowl and cup of water under my bed so that I could wash my hands before my feet touched the floor.  If you’ve been to an Orthodox wedding or a rest room in Israel you’ve likely seen a washing cup with two handles.  What’s with all the washing you say.  I say, watch your mouth and….. Wash your hands!

    Two Messiahs?

    Two Messiahs?

    Many of the ancient rabbis believed that the Hebrew scriptures spoke of two Messiahs: one who would suffer, and one who would rule. Are there really "two Messiahs," or only one? And why does it matter?

    Prince Handley 24/7 Commentary (FREE) > BLOG

    ____________________________


    DESCRIPTION

    In this session we will discuss several items that reveal difference between the currently referred to area of the Temple Mount … AND … where the First and Second Temples (including the Roman rebuild of the Jewish Temple on those locations) were actually located.


    We will discuss the following:

    Size of the Temple compared to Dome of the Rock Complex = Roman Fortress Antonia.

    Eye witness certifications of both the location of the Jewish Temple AND destruction of the Jewish Temple.

    Location of the Temple as certified by the Holy Scriptures.

    LOCATION OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE ~ PART 2
    OPHEL MOUND VS TEMPLE MOUNT

     

    The construction of the Third Jewish Temple could begin immediately IF the Jewish leaders ... and the Temple Institute ... understood that the First and Second Jewish Temples were NEVER located on the Dome of the Rock Complex or Haram al-Sharif.


    This is Part Two in a Series to develop a construct proving that the Jewish Temple was NOT on the traditional location (referred to as the Temple Mount), but was in the City of David. In this message we develop the construct that the First and Second Jewish Temples were located on the Ophel mound just to the north of the original Mount Zion on the southeast ridge.


    WHO WAS JOSEPHUS


    Titus Flavius Josephus, born Yosef ben Matityahu, was a first-century Romano-Jewish historian and military leader, best known for The Jewish War, who was born in Jerusalem—then part of Roman Judea—to a father of priestly descent and a mother who claimed royal ancestry.


    Born AD 37/38, Jerusalem—died AD 100, Rome—was a Jewish priest, scholar, and historian who wrote valuable works on the Jewish revolt of 66–70 and on earlier Jewish history. His major books are History of the Jewish War (75–79), The Antiquities of the Jews (93), and Against Apion.


    Josephus' works are the most thorough histories of the period that we have. So long as we retain some skepticism, his writings provide the greatest insight into what happened to the Jewish people during a five hundred year period.


    IMPORTANT


    Josephus lived in Jerusalem BEFORE the destruction, DURING the destruction, and AFTER the destruction of the Second Temple.


    According to the historian Josephus Flavius, hundreds of thousands of Jews perished in the siege of Jerusalem and elsewhere in the country, and many thousands more were sold into slavery.


    Texts by Josephus mentioned that Herod stated dogmatically that his Temple (though enlarged to be double in size of the former Temple) was still located in the same general area as that of the former Temples.


    The eyewitness account of Eleazar―who led the final contingent of Jewish resistance to the Romans at Masada―stated that the Roman fortress which had long been in Jerusalem was the ONLY structure left by 73 C.E.


    In other words, Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) was right:


    As Yeshua left the Temple and was going away, his
    talmidim came and called his attention to its buildings. But he answered them, “You see all these? Yes! I tell you, they will be totally destroyed—not a single stone will be left standing!” [Mattiyahu (Matthew) 24:1-2]


     ____________________

    NOTICE

    The stones of the Roman Fortress (Fort Antonia) were left standing where the Dome of the Rock Complex (Haram al-Sharif) is NOW located … referred to commonly as the Temple Mount area.

    ____________________



    The Dome of the Rock is built on top of the Foundation Stone, which is sacred to both Jews and Muslims. According to Jewish tradition, the stone is the “navel of the Earth”—the place where creation began, and the site where Abraham was poised to sacrifice Isaac.


    The Temple which existed in Jesus' day (and where the First Temple was previously located) was NOT located on the area referred to NOW as the Temple Mount (Dome of the Rock Complex or Haram al-Sharif).


    Both the First and Second Temples were located on Ophel mound over the area of the Gihon Spring.


    The Jewish people knew
    up to the period that Islam emerged, even to the time of the Crusadesthat the southeast ridge was the location of their "Mount Zion" and the site of all the Temples built in Jerusalem. Indeed, modern scholars realize that this is true for the real location of "Mount Zion," however, these same scholars and religious leaders fail to place the "Temple Mount" at that "Mount Zion" on the southeast ridge where it obviously belongs.


    The Holy Scriptures clearly place the 1st and 2nd Jewish Temples over and around the Gihon Spring on the
    southeast ridge (on top of the original "Mount Ophel") in Mt. Zion, City of David. But scholars and religious leaders continue insisting (and even dogmatically demanding) that the Temples of Solomon, Zerubbabel and Herod were centered within the parameters of the Haram esh-Sharif.


    ____________________

    IMPORTANT QUESTION

    GUESS WHO WANTS TO BELIEVE THAT THE FIRST AND SECOND JEWISH TEMPLES WERE LOCATED ON THE CURRENT “DOME OF THE ROCK COMPLEX” … OR WHAT IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS THE “TEMPLE MOUNT”


    TEMPLE INSTITUTE: TRADITION SINCE 1099 C.E.

    ISLAM: BELIEF THAT THE DOME OF THE ROCK IS OVER MOUNT MORIAH

    SATAN: IF ISRAEL AND THE JEWS CAN NOW BUILD THE THIRD TEMPLE IN ANOTHER AREA─NOT THE COMMONLY CALLED TEMPLE MOUNT AREA─AN AREA WHERE THE FIRST AND SECOND TEMPLES ACTUALLY STOOD … IT WOULD SPEED UP THE RETURN OF MESSIAH AND THE JUDGMENT OF SATAN.

    ____________________


    SOME OTHER POINTS TO CONSIDER

     

    The dimensions of the Temple (with its unique shape and characteristics) could NOT be the same as Fort Antonia―Haram al-Sharif = Dome of the Rock Complexwhere the “current” Temple Mount is located.


    The Haram al-Sharif (current Dome of the Rock Complex referred to as the Temple Mount) also fits within the average size of a Roman camp (50 acres), while the temple complex described by Josephus was only nine acres--typical of other Roman-Greco temple complexes of the period.



    The size of the Fortress Antonia
    based on Josephus and other evidenceshow that around 6,000 soldiers were housed there … PLUS 4,000 support personnel. It was like a small city with roads, bakeries, brothels, court rooms and barracks.


    Herod built the fortress to protect the Jewish Temple. He named it for his patron Mark Antony (83–30 BCE). The fortress housed the Roman garrison of Jerusalem.


    Also, IF—as some “Temple Mount proponents argue”—Fort Antonia was at some other location than the present Haram al-Sharif (Dome of the Rock Complex), then WHY were NOT the Herodian stones from Fortress Antonia found together at another location AND WHY do BOTH Josephus AND Eleazarwho led the final contingent of Jewish resistance to the Romans at Masadacertify as eye-witnesses that the Roman fortress which had long been in Jerusalem was the ONLY structure left after the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus and his forces.


    Josephus mentioned the utter ruin of the Temple and all the City of Jerusalem
    , but he gave no reference that the Haram al-Sharif was ordered to be retained or that Titus and his general staff commanded those walls should continue to remain intact. But they have survived unto our modern times. Through the centuries those 10,000 stones have remained in their original positions making up the four walls of the Haram [confines of the Roman Fortress Antonia] as a prominent and dominant architectural facility in the City of Jerusalem.


    SUMMARY


    Tradition holds strong that the current Temple Mount is the original location of the Temples; however, the testimony of eye-witnesses who were at Jerusalem before, during and after the diestruction of Jerusalem certify otherwise. In addition—and certainly more importantly—is the prophecy of Yeshua that “You see all these? Yes! I tell you, they will be totally destroyed—not a single stone will be left standing!”


    The First and Second Temples {of Solomon and Zerubbabel) were located on the Ophel mound just to the north of the original Mount Zion on the southeast ridge.
    We will investigate more concerning this in our following sessions.


    I trust this teaching will add insight into the REAL location of the First and Second Jewish Temples … AND … where the Third Temple may be built.

    This is Part One in a Series to develop a construct proving that the Jewish Temple was NOT on the traditional location (referred to as the Temple Mount), but was in the City of David.

    LOCATION OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE ~ PART 1

    JOSEPHUS & EYE WITNESSES VS. TRADITION


    I want to talk to you today about a brand new series that I want to present to you. I want to talk to you about the Third Temple in Jerusalem … and specifically about where the Third Temple will be (should be) built.

    In a previous podcast teaching, I taught about Third Temple: Timing and Terrorists. We talked about the timing of its construction on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and the effect of terrorism with relation to its construction. Plus the question that nobody asks!

    Just to give you a brief background, the New Global Governance leader will appoint a Head of Global Religion who will be the False Prophet, who persecutes Jews and real Christians.

    The Head of Global Religionthe False Prophetwill demand people worldwide to worship the new global governance leader, who will be the FALSE messiah referred to in the New Testament as The Beast.

    The False Prophet will construct an image of the Beast and demand the populace to worship the image. Also, after the Third Temple is completed about 42 months later in the middle of the seven year covenantthat's the seven year treaty that the anti-Christ Beast will make between the Jews and Palestiniansthe New Global Governance Leader (the anti-type actually of Antiochus Epiphanes IV who in 168 BCE sacrificed a sow on the altar in the templewill go into the temple and declared that he is God (just like Antiochus IV did).

    He will profane the temple. So after the temple is builtaround 42 months into the seven year covenant (about halfway through)the anti-christ FALSE Messiah will go into the Third Temple and declare that he is god. He will blaspheme the REAL GOD.

    The Bible tells us in the
    Book of Daniel Chapter 11, verse 31:

    For the day will not come until after apostasy has come and the man who separates himself from Torah has been revealed. The one destined for doom. He will oppose himself to everything that people call a God or make an object of worship. He will put himself above them all so that he will sit in the Temple of God and proclaim that he himself is God.”


    Now it's at this time that Israel will go into the time of Jacob's trouble, but Israel will be delivered at the end of the last 42 months of that seven year period when Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah appears at the end of the seven-year covenant.
    The New global governance with regional Islamic horses will attack Israel. These forces will be marshaled by what scripture calls the Beast, who is the FALSE messiah; the New Global Governance Leader.

    However, at the last nanosecond, the REAL Messiah will appear from Heaven and He will defeat the anti-Israel armies. Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) will set up his kingdom where peace, prosperity and purity will abound. Israel wins permanently.

    Now let me ask you the question that nobody asks: “Will the REAL Messiah cleanse the Third Temple which has been profaned by the the Beastthe anti-christor will He make a NEW Fourth Temple during his rule?” What do you think?

    Let me quote to you from Jeremiah Chapter 33:14: “Behold, the days are coming, says, Adonai, when I will fulfill this good promise which I have proclaimed for the House of Israel and the House of Judah.” My friend, good things are coming. But before they do, there's going to be some very bad times.

    Now let's go back to what I was talking about when I opened this segment. I want to start a new series on the Third Temple … where it's going to be located. You probably ask me,
    “Why do you say that; it's on the Temple Mount.” Wait a minute, my friend, I'm go to share some new things that I have researched … I have discovered.

    Anyway, I'm going to share some things in this new series that will completely revolutionize the geopolitics of the end times. And I'm going to share with you some things that could absolutely revolutionize thinking about “time tables” of the lAst Days … and it might even move things up a little more quickly.

    Let me share with you some interesting things. First of all, let's talk about the Temple Mount. In a mass of over 375 literary descriptions from several versions of the Bible, and the Talmud, and other Jewish sources, plus pseudepigrapha and Apocrypha. They all demonstrate the First and Second Jewish temples stood in the city of David above the Gihon Springs … and NOT where the Dome of the Rock (the Temple Mount) is located now. Not where many scholars say the Temple was located. I'm going to verify this, and I'm going to give you lots of teaching on this'

    I'm talking about
    the traditional view (current belief) that many hold about the Temple Mount or Haram Al-Sharif as compared with Josephus' description that the Roman Fort Antonio was where the Dome of the Rock is now … and NOT the location of the Jewish Temple. Now, why am I saying that? Because I would rather believe what a person who was there when Jerusalem stood, when the temple stood … and was there when Jerusalem was destroyed … and was there after Jerusalem was destroyed.

    I would rather hear what Josephus has to say. Josephus is probably the most popular Jewish historian of the ages. I would rather listen to what he says than what some 21st Century “scholars?” and rabbbis might say about ithe Temple location (be they Jewish or Gentile).

    To give you a little background of Josephus ... he lived in Jerusalem. He was there, during the destruction ot the Temple. He saw it after the temple was destroyed. And he was even given the records, the Jewish records of the construction of Fort Antonio by king Herod.

    He was also given the Roman records of Jewish wars. What happened, when they happened, and where they happened.
    Josephus is impeccably accurate. He's a first century eyewitness observant. And not as I said, a 21st century guesser! Josephus definitely said that the Jewish temple was in the City of David, not where people think it is now. Now, why am I sharing this? And why is it so important in this series we're getting ready to cover?

    Here's why? If the Jewish people understand that the Temple never stood on the Dome of the Rock complex (or what they call the Temple Mount), then the construction of Third Temple could begin immediately in the city of David on the Southeast Ridge of Jerusalem.

    Tradition is probably stronger than historical fact. In other words, tradition is stronger than what an eye witness named. Josephus said! Only something supernaturalmaybe some NEW archaeological findingsor some other dynamic happening can change the traditionalist thinking problem.

    But my purpose in this series is to change that. Will the spirit of tradition override the spirit of truth?!
    The Temple, my friend, was not where they say it is now at the Temple Mount. It was in the City of David. There are archaeologists, historians, and academics convinced that the First and Second Jewish Temple NEVER stood on what is recognized NOW as the Temple Mount.

    Let me tell you something to think about. If they could get Mount Zion's location wrong for so many years, isn't it possible they could get the location of the Temple wrong? So we're going to cover that in this series. We're going to discuss some important things. And we're going to delve into a lot of what Josephus, the Jewish historian, taught about where the Jewish temple stood. Okay, my friend, buckle up and hang on for the ride.

    Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.

    DESCRIPTION OF THIS TEACHING


    The construction of the Third Jewish Temple could begin immediately IF the Jewish leaders ... and the Temple Institute ... understood that the First and Second Jewish Temples were NEVER located on the Dome of the Rock Complex; Haram al-Sharif.

     

    This is Part One in a Series to develop a construct proving that the Jewish Temple was NOT on the traditional location (referred to as the Temple Mount), but was in the City of David.

    LOCATION OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE ~ PART 1

    JOSEPHUS & EYE WITNESSES VS. TRADITION


    I want to talk to you today about a brand new series that I want to present to you. I want to talk to you about the Third Temple in Jerusalem … and specifically about where the Third Temple will be (should be) built.

    In a previous podcast teaching on the Podcast Satellite site, I taught about Third Temple: Timing and Terrorists. We talked about the timing of its construction on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and the effect of terrorism with relation to its construction. Plus the question that nobody asks!

    Just to give you a brief background, the New Global Governance leader will appoint a Head of Global Religion who will be the False Prophet, who persecutes Jews and real Christians.

    The Head of Global Religionthe False Prophetwill demand people worldwide to worship the new global governance leader, who will be the FALSE messiah referred to in the New Testament as The Beast.

    The False Prophet will construct an image of the Beast and demand the populace to worship the image. Also, after the Third Temple is completed about 42 months later in the middle of the seven year covenantthat's the seven year treaty that the anti-Christ Beast will make between the Jews and Palestiniansthe New Global Governance Leader (the anti-type actually of Antiochus Epiphanes IV who in 168 BCE sacrificed a sow on the altar in the templewill go into the temple and declared that he is God (just like Antiochus IV did).

    He will profane the temple. So after the temple is builtaround 42 months into the seven year covenant (about halfway through)the anti-christ FALSE Messiah will go into the Third Temple and declare that he is god. He will blaspheme the REAL GOD.

    The Bible tells us in the
    Book of Daniel Chapter 11, verse 31:

    For the day will not come until after apostasy has come and the man who separates himself from Torah has been revealed. The one destined for doom. He will oppose himself to everything that people call a God or make an object of worship. He will put himself above them all so that he will sit in the Temple of God and proclaim that he himself is God.”


    Now it's at this time that Israel will go into the time of Jacob's trouble, but Israel will be delivered at the end of the last 42 months of that seven year period when Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah appears at the end of the seven-year covenant.
    The New global governance with regional Islamic horses will attack Israel. These forces will be marshaled by what scripture calls the Beast, who is the FALSE messiah; the New Global Governance Leader.

    However, at the last nanosecond, the REAL Messiah will appear from Heaven and He will defeat the anti-Israel armies. Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) will set up his kingdom where peace, prosperity and purity will abound. Israel wins permanently.

    Now let me ask you the question that nobody asks: “Will the REAL Messiah cleanse the Third Temple which has been profaned by the the Beastthe anti-christor will He make a NEW Fourth Temple during his rule?” What do you think?

    Let me quote to you from Jeremiah Chapter 33:14: “Behold, the days are coming, says, Adonai, when I will fulfill this good promise which I have proclaimed for the House of Israel and the House of Judah.” My friend, good things are coming. But before they do, there's going to be some very bad times.

    Now let's go back to what I was talking about when I opened this segment. I want to start a new series on the Third Temple … where it's going to be located. You probably ask me,
    “Why do you say that; it's on the Temple Mount.” Wait a minute, my friend, I'm go to share some new things that I have researched … I have discovered.

    Anyway, I'm going to share some things in this new series that will completely revolutionize the geopolitics of the end times. And I'm going to share with you some things that could absolutely revolutionize thinking about “time tables” of the lAst Days … and it might even move things up a little more quickly.

    Let me share with you some interesting things. First of all, let's talk about the Temple Mount. In a mass of over 375 literary descriptions from several versions of the Bible, and the Talmud, and other Jewish sources, plus pseudepigrapha and Apocrypha. They all demonstrate the First and Second Jewish temples stood in the city of David above the Gihon Springs … and NOT where the Dome of the Rock (the Temple Mount) is located now. Not where many scholars say the Temple was located. I'm going to verify this, and I'm going to give you lots of teaching on this'

    I'm talking about
    the traditional view (current belief) that many hold about the Temple Mount or Haram Al-Sharif as compared with Josephus' description that the Roman Fort Antonio was where the Dome of the Rock is now … and NOT the location of the Jewish Temple. Now, why am I saying that? Because I would rather believe what a person who was there when Jerusalem stood, when the temple stood … and was there when Jerusalem was destroyed … and was there after Jerusalem was destroyed.

    I would rather hear what Josephus has to say. Josephus is probably the most popular Jewish historian of the ages. I would rather listen to what he says than what some 21st Century “scholars?” and rabbbis might say about ithe Temple location (be they Jewish or Gentile).

    To give you a little background of Josephus ... he lived in Jerusalem. He was there, during the destruction ot the Temple. He saw it after the temple was destroyed. And he was even given the records, the Jewish records of the construction of Fort Antonio by king Herod.

    He was also given the Roman records of Jewish wars. What happened, when they happened, and where they happened.
    Josephus is impeccably accurate. He's a first century eyewitness observant. And not as I said, a 21st century guesser! Josephus definitely said that the Jewish temple was in the City of David, not where people think it is now. Now, why am I sharing this? And why is it so important in this series we're getting ready to cover?

    Here's why? If the Jewish people understand that the Temple never stood on the Dome of the Rock complex (or what they call the Temple Mount), then the construction of Third Temple could begin immediately in the city of David on the Southeast Ridge of Jerusalem.

    Tradition is probably stronger than historical fact. In other words, tradition is stronger than what an eye witness named. Josephus said! Only something supernaturalmaybe some NEW archaeological findingsor some other dynamic happening can change the traditionalist thinking problem.

    But my purpose in this series is to change that. Will the spirit of tradition override the spirit of truth?!
    The Temple, my friend, was not where they say it is now at the Temple Mount. It was in the City of David. There are archaeologists, historians, and academics convinced that the First and Second Jewish Temple NEVER stood on what is recognized NOW as the Temple Mount.

    Let me tell you something to think about. If they could get Mount Zion's location wrong for so many years, isn't it possible they could get the location of the Temple wrong? So we're going to cover that in this series. We're going to discuss some important things. And we're going to delve into a lot of what Josephus, the Jewish historian, taught about where the Jewish temple stood. Okay, my friend, buckle up and hang on for the ride.

    Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.

    150. Is American Zionism Unraveling?
    “Blood is flowing in the streets of the Holy Land,” began an open letter signed by just under 100 rabbinical students, and published in May. Last week, Marc Tracy of the NY Times published an article about the letter, its backlash, and what it all means. In this week's episode, Uri and Rivky ask, is it true? Is American Zionism unraveling?

    147. Judaism and Gender Identity with Ma'ayan Seligsohn
    This week, Uri and Rivky speak to Ma'ayan Seligsohn, a rebbetzin in Riverdale, NY, who recently came out publicly as trans and nonbinary and use they/them pronouns. They speak to Maayan about their story, the Orthodox community, and their relationship with God. (So, you know, nothing too heavy.)

    Let's talk about the issues brought up in "My Unorthodox Life" with Dr. Efrat Bruck

    Efrat Bruck, MD, graduated from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City and is now an anesthesiology resident at the Mount Sinai Hospital. Before medical school, she taught Judaic studies, Hebrew, and Biology to 1000 now-alumni of Be’er Hagolah Institutes, in Brooklyn, NY. Dr. Bruck has worked as a content specialist for Khan Academy and created over 30 MCAT preparation videos on topics in molecular biology, DNA, and genetics that have also recently been translated into foreign languages.  Her videos have been published on the AAMC (American Association of Medical Colleges) website, Khan Academy, and YouTube, accruing millions of views on the latter. Dr. Bruck has published research in Nature, the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, and Obstetrics and Gynecology.

    Dr. Bruck founded and leads the JOWMA PreMed Society that aims to advance Jewish women, from all backgrounds, in medicine. Dr. Bruck is a fierce advocate for premed students from insular and underrepresented backgrounds and strives to provide them with the resources and tools necessary to compete. (www.jowma.org/pre-med). She was among two out of 200 graduating MDs, PhDs, and MD/PhDs at Sinai’s recent commencement to be awarded the Patricia Levinson Award for the Advancement and Inclusion of Women in Medicine. Dr. Bruck, along with her colleagues at JOWMA, is also currently in the process of constructing a cultural competency curriculum that will help healthcare professionals in New York City hospitals provide culturally sensitive medical care to Jewish populations across the entire spectrum of Orthodoxy.   

    Dr. Bruck’s experiences in education, acceptance to nearly 10 US MD programs, and service on the admissions committee of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have led her to have a highly successful track record helping premeds navigate the medical school application process. She is the founder and CEO of MDInspire, a medical school admissions consultancy that provides professional consulting for fees that are reasonable and a fraction of the standard costs. Dr. Bruck specializes in helping people weave their stories seamlessly through their application, building stellar personal statements and activities sections, interview preparation, and coaching students on how to study smarter, not harder.
