First we must look at all the options. The Temple is a house that holds the Ark of the Covenant. The size of the Ark could fit in a stone box inside a pyramid located in Egypt. It could fit in a hollowed out shape under the Dome of the Rock. Let's look at Exodus 31:1-11 and go from there.
1-6 And Yahuah spoke unto Moses, saying, see, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: and I have filled him with the spirit of Elohiym, in Wisdom, and in Understanding, and in Knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put Wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you;
A few things we must notice is who represented the builders of the things inside the Temple. It was Bezaleel from the tribe of Judah and Aholiab from the tribe of Dan. The Temple furnishings wasn't only Jewish. You could say, they were also Scandinavian (I believe Skan-dan-avYah means, dwelling place of Dan, Father is Yah. It gives new meaning to the Vikings.) because Dan's descendants migrated to Sweden, Denmark and lived by the Danube River. You know the Jews will hate that last statement because they think of them as goyim.
Another point to be made is that Wisdom, Understanding and Knowledge are three of the seven spirits of Yahuah. In other words, part of the Holy Spirit.
What is interesting is that the Vikings was very gifted with working different types of metal. They also had the Gjallarhorn that was almost the same thing as the Shofar.
7-11 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle, and the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense, and the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot, and the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office, and the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.
The tabernacle of the congregation is the outer wall of the temple. The ark of the testimony is the Ark of the Covenant. The mercy seat is the lid on top of the box of the Ark of the Covenant. Everything else from the oil, clothing and candle sticks was made by the descendants of Judah and Dan.
Here is 2 Samuel 24. This shows the Temple Location and things that led up to the purchase of the threshing floor. It also shows a division between Israel and Judah.
1-11 And again the anger of Yahuah was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah. For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and number the people, that I may know the number of the people. And Joab said unto the king, Now Yahuah your Elohiym add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why does my lord the king delight in this thing. Notwithstanding the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel. And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lies in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer: Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtimhodshi; and they came to Danjaan, and about to Zidon, And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba. So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days. And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men. And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto Yahuah, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech You, O Yahuah, take away the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly. For when David was up in the morning, the word of Yahuah came unto the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
Did you notice the change in David? He was a shepherd boy watching his father's flock. Then by faith in Yahuah, he killed Goliath. Now as King, the job had changed him in his actions, but his heart battled against his emotions. He may have took pride in the kingdom knowing it's strength in the flesh of men. David's heart knew it's by Yahuah that there is strength in Israel and Judah. The question is, if it was David's sin, why strike Israel and Judah? Yahuah had become angry against Israel.
12-16 Go and say unto David, Thus saith Yahuah, I offer you three things; choose you one of them, that I may do it unto you. So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your enemies, while they pursue you? Or that there be three days' pestilence in your land? Now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me. And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of Yahuah; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man. So Yahuah sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men. And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, Yahuah repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now your hand. And the angel of Yahuah was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.
Did you see that the pestilence was an angel sent by Yahuah. Things that happen on earth is also happening in higher dimensions. Pestilence is a fatal epidemic disease. It's at the level where they tell you to stay home or keep six feet apart. COVID 19 had the potential to kill many more but it didn't. People who thought they protected themselves got COVID and caught it again while some unvaccinated people stayed healthy. Things happen at a higher dimension at the same moment outside the spacetime continuum. The Angel of Yahuah I believe is Yahuah of Hosts, the one Adam and Eve talked to in the Garden of Eden. The Fourth Man in the fire with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.
17 And David spoke unto Yahuah when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? Let your hand, I pray, be against me, and against my father's house.
David now seen the innocence of the people that his government was responsible for. That's like the year 70 when Rome destroyed Jerusalem. This time it went the other way. The people was lead like sheep by the Jewish government. Then they paid with their lives for their government's choices. They hid in sewers only to be found by Romans. Yahusha Hamashia saw it coming back in the year 33.
18-24 And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto Yahuah in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite. And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as Yahuah commanded. And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground. And Araunah said, Wherefore is my master the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of you, to build an altar unto Yahuah, that the plague may be stayed from the people. And Araunah said unto David, Let my master the king take and offer up what seems good unto him: behold, here be oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood. All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, Yahuah your Elohiym accept you. And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of you at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto Yahuah my Elohiym of that which does cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
David did the correct thing to purchase it for a fair price. Araunah was at the mercy of the epidemic also. Perhaps Araunah's crops wasn't doing so well also. This is probably why he would have donated the land. Or maybe David would just take it like the city anyway. Notice that the land was outside of the City of David. This would be the Temple Mount. The natural altar used by Abraham was there also. Today it is sheltered by the Dome of the Rock. I believe the Tabernacle was just to the south of Abraham's altar.
25 And David built there an altar unto Yahuah, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So Yahuah was intreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
Notice that the plague was lifted from Israel. That's Northern Israelites. But yet it includes Judeans. It's not just Judah alone. The altar is outside, at a higher elevation than the City of David. There is a spring in the city of David. I believe that was the site of Melchizedek who helped Abraham before the Jebusite City.
As for the hollowed out area under the Dome of the Rock, I believe it is not the site of the Ark of the covenant. I believe that was Abraham's altar unto Yahuah Elohiym. The cave under the Dome of the Rock, Abraham and his son probably sheltered there for awhile. Or Perhaps it was a place for sacrificial animals. Perhaps Adam and Eve spent time there after they fled Eden. I believe Eden is the Arabian Tectonic Plate. East of Eden would be the Ancient civilization of India. West of Eden would be Jerusalem that's on the African plate. The Garden of Eden is under water.
From the year 66 to the year 135 was the Roman Jewish wars. The Jews could not hold back the Romans like Scotland and Deutschland could. After the complete destruction of Jerusalem in the year 70, Roman placed a tax on Judea. This tax was for the building of a temple to the god Jupiter where Herod the Edomite's Temple sat. Fort Antonio was destroyed so I believe the Temple Mount could have been a Roman camp after the year 70, not before. Roman taxes lasted until or about the year 361 even though the Roman colony ended in the year 325. In 638 the Muslims found Jerusalem in utter decay and disrepair. Islam pushed into Europe continually until the Crusades. Jews was selling Celtic women as slaves to the Muslims. (Some Muslims appear European when they should be a brown skinned people. Others have African features from African female slaves.) The Crusades was in part led by Jewish interests, descendants from Jews fleeing Jerusalem in 70 CE. In 1342 Roman taxes was reintroduced. It's said it was a continuation of the Temple Tax. Reports of Jews poisoning Christian wells spread quickly that supposedly caused the Black Death. The Black Death was a bubonic plague pandemic occurring in Western Eurasia and North Africa from 1346 to 1353.
Quote, "Patients develop fever, chills, extreme weakness, abdominal pain, shock, and possibly bleeding into the skin and other organs. Skin and other tissues may turn black and die, especially on fingers, toes, and the nose."
Black Death was caused by the bacterium. This bacterium is found in humans, rodents and their fleas. In my opinion, it was the cargo of Jewish traders that carried the flees. It started in Georgia, south of Russia where Jews lived for centuries. It's interesting to know that wherever slaves was sold, Black Death followed.
Only one wall of Solomon's outer wall remains. That is the wall towards the east. Herod the Edomite extended the Eastern wall north and south. To the south the wall is not straight with the original. He also extended the mount to the north, south and west. The wailing wall is Herod the Edomite's wall on the bottom, then a Muslim repair job on the top. Solomon's western wall is to the east under the Temple Mount. The two does not run parallel. South of the Temple Mount and to the south west of the Mount, the street in the time of Yahusha Hamashia was covered with stone blocks and dirt. Today a street and foundations are found there from before the year 70. A Temple foundation or outer wall doesn't appear south of the Temple Mount.
Two locations of where Solomon's wall was can be located today. Having been square, the other two walls can be sketch out on a map of the area. If Solomon's Temple was west central, without a survey being done, in my opinion the Temple was located south of the Dome of the Rock. The Altar also south of the Dome of Chain. The question is, how did Herod the Edomite upgrade the second Temple? Is it on Nehemiah's Temple footprint? Was Nehemiah's Temple on Solomon's Temple footprint? Architects from Greece, Rome and Egypt planned out the construction by the order of Herod the Edomite. The question is, how could the second Temple have been inspired by the Holy Spirit? Vendors was on the street below to the southwest. It's said vendors was also in the court of the Gentiles. This is where Yahusha Hamashia comes in.
And Yahusha went into the temple of Yahuah, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, and said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.
It didn't say what part of the Temple. I believe it was not on the outside of the Temple Mount, but near or on the court of women where Yahusha Hamashia found the masters of the servants holding the doves. In today's world that would be like a church selling things they require for worship. Or like holding a money making event that would line the pockets of the Priests.
And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
Can you imagine that? Here is Yahusha on the 37 acre site drawing the attention away from this pride filled Temple. Here He is healing people, something that never happened before. Today's Temple Mount can be seen by everyone on the internet. What would be the one elevated place to speak to people other than the Temple itself. That would be the Rock where Abraham sacrificed the first Ram. I believe that rock was just north of the Holy of Holies. Yahusha Hamashia perhaps stood there so the crowd would see Him. Most likely where Abraham was going to sacrifice his son. In the Muslims' eyes, He was a Prophet standing on a Holy Location. To the Christian, the Ram of Yahuah Elohiym.
And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased, and said unto him, Hear you what they say? And Yahusha said unto them, Yea; have you never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings you have perfected praise? And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there. Matthew 21:12-17
Yahusha Hamashia healed people inside the Temple and identified as the Son of David by the people. The Jews did not because Anna His Grandmother was from Brittany France. That made the Virgin Mary not Jewish in the eyes of the Priests, making Yahusha a Samaritan in Jewish eyes. Princess Anna was a descendant of High Queen Teia of the children of Northern Israelites. They are the Celtic people of the North. Teia is the daughter of King Zedekiah, Princess of the Judeans. It was politically incorrect for the Jews to identify Yahusha Hamashia as Messiah son of David, so they probably never looked into His ancestry. Yahusha Hamashia probably healed a woman in the court of women. That probably was a great offense to the Priests but not as much as being seen as their Messiah. I see this as the turning point, locking in 70 CE.
On the way, Yahusha was hungry and saw a fig tree. Having no fruit, He cursed it. Yahusha said to His Disciples so they could understand, "Verily I say unto you, If you have faith, and doubt not, you shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if you shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive."
This was an object lesson on what was happening at the Temple. The next day Yahusha was back in the Temple.
23-27 And when He was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as He was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority? Yahusha answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if you tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things. The baptism of John, from what source was it? From heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did you not then believe him? But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet. And they answered Yahusha, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
Can you smell the Pride smoldering in these Jewish Priests? Then they said they ddn't know without an enquiry into John the Baptist. That would be an investigation into the Kings authority and sins.
28 But what do you think? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work today in my vineyard. He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went. And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not. Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They said unto him, The first. Yahusha said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of Yahuah before you. For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and you, when you had seen it, repented not afterward, that you might believe him.
Remember this was said on the Temple Mount. These priests are loosing face in front of the people.
33-41 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: and when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the master therefore of the vineyard came, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Yahusha Hamashia outlined how the Temple should work and also what is wrong with the Temple politics. Yahuah Elohiym let the Tribe of Levi run the Temple. The priests took it for their own. Seizing the inheritance of Yahuah of Hosts is the same plan Satan had when he was a Cherub. When Yahuah Elohiym judges the World, He will destroy the heavens, casting the wicked into the Lake of Fire.
42-43 Yahusha said unto them, Did you never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is Yahuah's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of Elohiym shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
What is interesting is that the United Kingdom and those connected with her sent out missionaries throughout the world. John Wesley (1703-1791) and his brother, Charles (1707-1788) ministries are still remembered. The surname Wesley is an Anglo-Norman. Anglo has it's roots in the word bullock. Anglo-ish, English is to say bullock man. This is the nickname for Ephraim. Wesley is to say, the west field. The Norse God Oden I believe had it's roots in Yahuah of Hosts. The Gospel set the people free from mythology.
44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
This is an interesting verse. The stone is Yahusha Hamashia. This was a warning to the Priests. If they attack Him, they will be broken. In other words, the year 70 in Judea. The stone falling on them is mentioned in Daniel. This stone hit the statue on it's ten toes.
Daniel 2:45 Forasmuch as you seen that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great Elohiym has made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
45-46 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke of them. But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
To the Pharisees, Yahusha Hamashia's words were uncomfortable because of the truth that was in them. Their control over the Temple was threatened by someone who they seen as a Samaritan. Pride corrupted their Wisdom and Understanding.
Today they Temple Mount is an object of Pride. Truth is cast out to make room for control. The question is, why haven't the Jews went back to the Tabernacle after loosing Judea twice, once to Babylon and then to Rome? Was the Edomite's Temple designed by Goyim that Great spiritually? Perhaps Nehemiah's Temple was superior spiritually. Perhaps the smaller Temple Mount dated back to Solomon would be the better size.
