New 'Sanhedrin' Calls For Architectural Blueprint To Rebuild Jewish Temple
The Israeli rabbinical council involved with re-establishing the Sanhedrin, is calling upon all groups involved in Temple Mount research to prepare detailed architectural plans for the reconstruction of the Jewish Holy Temple.
The Sanhedrin was a 71-man assembly of rabbis that convened adjacent to the Holy Temple before its destruction in 70 AD and outside Jerusalem until about 400 AD.
The move followed the election earlier this week of Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz as temporary president of a group aspiring to become Judaism's highest-ranking legal-religious tribunal.
However, although Steinsaltz's involvement with the endeavor adds important rabbinic legitimacy, other major halachic authorities, including Rabbi Yosef Shalom Elyashiv, the leading haredi Ashkenazi spiritual leader, and Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, the premier Sephardi halachic opinion, have refused repeated requests to offer their support.
Nevertheless, the group will establish a forum of architects and engineers to begin plans for rebuilding the Temple a move fraught with religious and political volatility.
The group, which calls itself the Sanhedrin, is calling on the Jewish people to contribute toward the acquisition of materials for the purpose of rebuilding the Temple including the gathering and preparation of prefabricated, disassembled portions to be stored and ready for rapid assembly, "in the manner of King David."
Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for the burgeoning Sanhedrin, said in an official statement that because of "concerns that external pressure would be brought to bear upon individuals not to take part in the establishment of a Sanhedrin, the names of most participants have been withheld up to this point."
"The increasingly anti-Jewish decisions handed down by the Supreme Court prove the need for an alternative legal system based on Jewish sources," said Weiss. "More and more people, including Torah scholars, are beginning to understand this."
The Sanhedrin was reestablished last October in Tiberias, the place of its last meeting 1,600 years ago. Since then, it has met in Jerusalem on a monthly basis.
Yeah, he found it all right, and then he redid it.
My experience tells me "no."
Unfortunately, the bent truth also looks like truth to real Muslims (not apostates). Muslims and Satan...their lies look like the truth, to them.
Whatever. If you rely too precisely on the words that one must use, you will lose the whole message. Might as well be a hermit in a cave in the desert.
Get help.
Note what "hosepipe" said above, you will have eternal life...you decision is...
where will it be?
Allah is waiting for your response.
It was all the ancient Hebrews could do to keep the text correct even with hundreds of men who dedicated their lives to memorizing it.
There's a little break in the chain of custody reflected in Kings II 22 that has to be accounted for.
You should be up on this particular controversy ~
So, why is Allah waiting on anything?
So what you are saying is. "I know what you think I said, but what I said is not what I meant." It's no wonder you're so confused. I wonder whether even you know what you meant by what you said. SHALOM!!
I know you are bright...why waste eternity?
Atheists and Muslims are so obvious because they are not mature spiritually. Don't be a sap. It's a frikken eternity...don't blow it.
When Jewish scribes made copies of the Torah and the Tenach, they counted the value of each letter that was in the original scriptures, and when they finished copying the new one, they would count the value of each letter they copied, and if the totals didn't match, they DESTROYED IT, and started all over again. That is how they were able to keep the scriptures free of errors. It was God's plan that an incorrupted Bible be passed down from generation to generation because it was HIS RECIPE FOR LIFE, and He would NOT allow it to be corrupted as you have so blatantly manage to accomplish.
http://www.christianlibrary.org/authors/John_L_Kachelman_Jr/people-ot/hilkiah.htm has a nice writeup you should check out.
I apologize for thinking that you were trying to convert people to islam.
I now realize that you are merely insane.
Arm yourself with knowledge, not hype or myth.
If anyone's interested.
Another Confutze saying for you: "Practice what you preach"
I'm passing this along because the language is simple enough that probably anybody can understand it.
It's quite easy to find information about this break in the chain of Bible custody, it's just that few people have ever paid too much attention to it before. Archaeology actually helps us understand what happened.
BTW, when you get to the part about breaking bones, that's exactly what was done to the false prophets ~ Josiah's army killed them and literally roasted them on their own sacrificial altars.
Truth isn't a Muslim characteristic.
But, I would rather die for Jesus than convert to a demonic religion. Thx for your comforting remarks tho.
"I now realize that you are merely insane."
Amen to that.
You mean those Moslem missionaries with swords. That's a real heartfelt conversion they achieved.
Believe in Al-Ilah or lose your head. And if you ever want to leave...leave your severed head with us.
Now that's a religion!
A small section at the beginning is, in fact, taken directly from Kings II, just shortly BEFORE King Josiah.
Most of the rest of the book concerns matters far later than Josiah. Ergo, this very oldest material is still post Josiah.
Maybe someday someone will find something older.
