DescriptionThe Sacred Rock, where the Temple Altar Stood (4879892330).jpg |
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "In the interior of the building we walk around an octagonal corridor, and entering a door we stand before a mass of slanting native rock, 57 feet long from north to south and 43 feet wide. Here was the threshing floor of Araunah, bought by King David for the site of his altar; but Jewish tradition claims that a thousand years before David, Abraham built his altar on this rock for the sacrifice of Isaac. Without a doubt here stood the altar in Solomon's Temple, and in the two temples that succeeded Solomon's. Think of the great men of the Bible who stood here and worshiped; prophets, priests, kings, apostles, saints! We may well look upon this rock as one of the hallowed places of the earth."
