JD: The Jordanian cabinet member made a statement this week, Jews on the Temple Mount are a problication to the Moslem world. This is strong rhetoric but does not lead to something good in the future I don’t believe.
DD: Well no Jimmy, and we’ve seen an increasingly hard line coming out of the Jordanian regime over the last half year or so particularly since the incident in Haman involving the Israeli embassy there. And this isn’t surprising but it certainly isn’t comforting to the Israeli’s they need a good quiet border with Jordan. They don’t want any threats from Jordan. And the Jordanians the Moslem leaders in Jordan are the official keepers of the Temple Mount for the Moslems. So, their position is very very important what they say about the Temple Mount.
So, the Israelis are not happy about that but again it’s what we’ve been hearing all along from Yasser Arafat on down that Jews have no right up there, they have no historical connection, there was never a Temple up there, all things that are rather absurd but things that they do say and whether they believe them or not they at least say them.
JD: David Dolan with the details on this story of Jews on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem provoking the Moslem world.
We report this information because it is setting the stage
for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
For 3,000 years Jews have been going to the Temple Mount to
worship at the sacred site for the Jewish people. That started with the
building of the first Temple by King Solomon. Since there has been no Temple on
the Temple Mount for the last 2,000 years the Jews go to the Western Wall to
pray and worship. However, in the last 20 years Jews have ascended the Temple
Mount to visit the location of the two previous temples and the location for
the next two temples in the future.
Now Jordan says those Jews on the Temple Mount provoke the
Moslems and they must not be allowed to go on to the Temple Mount. Ancient
Jewish prophets wrote 2,500 years ago and said that would be the case in the
last days, that’s Zechariah 12:2. Zechariah the prophet was actually saying
that Jerusalem would be a cup of trembling and as you define that apocalyptic
passage you come to the understanding that Jerusalem will be in the last days
very controversial. The enemies of the Jewish people the Moslem world will want
to take control of this piece of real estate that actually dates back to the
time of the Garden of Eden.
Jordan’s statement calling for no Jews to be on the Temple
Mount is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
