Why did Jeremiah say that God would fulfill his promise by bringing the people back to ha makom—THE PLACE? Jeremiah 29:10 "after seventy years are completed at Babylon I will visit you and perform my word and cause you to return to this Ha Makom (THE PLACE). Jeremiah used the term Ha Makom more than a dozen times in the book bearing his name. Why did it have this special name--Ha Makom, THE PLACE?

HAS THE WESTERN WALL VISITED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP ANYTHING TO DO WITH JERUSALEM'S TEMPLES?

Well, actually, NO! It had everything to do with Fortress Antonia built to house the Tenth Roman Legion at Jerusalem!
The site of the Temples (both Solomon’s and Herod’s) was in the City of David, south of what is wrongly called Temple Mount.
They were built in ZION… for location, see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zion

Here’s an example from Psalms from a plethora of Biblical evidence...

“May He send you help from the sanctuary,
And strengthen you out of Zion” (Psalm 20:2)

This is Hebrew poetic parallelism—repeating the idea twice in different form. It's self-evident that ‘the sanctuary’ (holy place or temple) and Zion are one and the same location. Zion was (and is) within the old City of David and is the true site of Jerusalem’s temples.

THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM AND LIVING WATER

In your Bible the flow of life that comes from God is represented by ‘living water’—water that is ‘alive’ because it is flowing and not stagnant. It flows, bringing life wherever it goes. It is frequently pictured flowing from the Temple, that is, out from the presence of God.
For the actual Jewish Temples to properly represent this spiritual truth they had to have living water flowing in and from them—and they did! That water was provided by the great spring at Gihon, above which the Temples were constructed. The site at Gihon was known throughout the Bible as HaMakom, THE PLACE. Take a fascinating narrative journey through the Bible discovering the history of HaMakom THE PLACE where Jerusalem’s temples stood.

The Temple...'WITHIN YOUR WALLS, O JERUSALEM'

2/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Psalm 122 speaks about Jerusalem as the City of God. The 'Testimony of Israel' (the law of Moses) resides there, within the walls of the city. The psalm was written after the building of Solomon's temple, but places it within the boundaries of the city (see for example, v.7 'within your walls'). 'Compact together' in verse 3 means 'all joined together' or, 'of a piece'. Temple and township were all part of one entity--God dwelling truly in the midst of His people. The temple was not remote from them, some 200 metres to the north!

Pastor, Luke Yeghnazar of the Iranian Church of Los Angeles: Wonderful book. I trust it will be distributed widely. I read it with excitement. The reader will want to know what happens next. An exciting book to be read by Christians, Jews and others.

What readers of THE PEOPLE are saying...
The People is an enthralling and innovative approach, not only to telling old familiar stories but using narrative to portray, in a subtle but powerful way, the truth of good and evil in our world . . . There is good and evil, God and Satan, and in every human relationship/interaction and behavior a choice is to be made. The consequences, for those with the spiritual eyes to see, are clear. It is an exceptional and well written piece of work.” Allan Bull, Macquarie University, Sydney.
