Why Living Water at Jerusalem's Temple is important

Where's the Living water?
A major problem with the traditional 'Temple Mount' site for the Jerusalem temples is the absence of 'living' water (water that is not stagnant but flows or springs!)


Biblical 'types' are very important. They are earthly ‘shadows’ of what exists in the spiritual realm or in subsequent revelation. The Red Sea is a ‘type’ of baptism; The Tabernacle and later permanent Temple are a shadow-type of the Church (the people in whom God now dwells by his Spirit). Egypt typifies slavery in sin; Babylon typifies estrangement from God through neglect and disobedience; the bread in the Tabernacle speaks as a ‘type’, of Jesus (‘I am the bread of life’). There are many ‘types’. In each case, a physical item, place or event typifies a spiritual truth.

Through the Bible, the imagery of God’s 'throne-room' almost always includes a river of life-giving water. Solomon’s temple, the design for which came from God, via David, was full of typology.

So then…in order for the Temple site to qualify as a true ‘type’ for the place of God’s throne and presence it must surely include flowing water!

There is only one site that qualifies; a site in the City of David (Zion), above and near the once
powerful and gushing Gihon Spring, whose water was channeled into the site as many ancient records attest. For more, read ‘THE PLACE: HaMakom: where Jerusalem’s temples stood’

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.
