Israeli archaeologists have uncovered the first artifact to confirm the written testimony of the Jewish temple worship and sacrifice that took place in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount some 2000 years ago and they believe that this is the first time physical evidence has been found to refute those who reject any Jewish presence on the Temple Mount throughout history.
This discovery is tangible evidence that there was a Jewish temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem 2000 years ago where Jewish worshipers went to worship the God of Israel.

An archaeological discovery on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem refutes Moslem claims that there never was a Jewish temple but at the same time, it sets the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
For a number of years, the Mufti of Jerusalem, a high ranking Moslem cleric, has stated that there never was a Jewish presence on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. With the custodial control of the Temple Mount underneath the Islamic Trust the Moslems have dictated when Jews were allowed to even enter the Temple Mount compound. Islamic propaganda is continually used to say to the world that the Jews have no right to the Temple Mount even though this sacred piece of real estate is the holiest site in all of Judaism.
With this latest discovery of Israeli archaeologists a first century second temple seal, there is now solid evidence of Jewish worship at the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. This button sized seal with an inscription in Aramaic was found with oil lamps, earthenware, and containers filled with oils and perfumes all of which are artifacts that date back to the period of the Hasmoneans and the time of the second Jewish temple in Jerusalem.
This archaeological discovery refutes the claims by the Muslims that there never was a Jewish presence on the Temple Mount but it also speaks to the future and another Jewish temple, in fact, two different temples in the future. Zechariah 6:12 says that the Messiah Jesus Christ will build His temple there on the Temple Mount and rule from this temple in the kingdom to come (Zechariah 6:13). II Samuel 7 is a promise to King David that this coming temple will be there in Jerusalem forever. However, before the kingdom temple, Bible prophecy reveals another temple, the Tribulation temple, which will be there on the Temple Mount to be desecrated (Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15, II Thessalonians 2:4, and Revelation 11:1).
This latest archaeological discovery on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is evidence of the past and also speaks to the future. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
