"Pealing 95:8. ' Lesson Text: Ezra 8:10-1S; Psalm 84: . 1-2; Ezeldel 11:1; 37:28-28. Three temples figure in Jewish history as we take it from our own ; Bible. The first was that construct- , ed bySolomon, richly ornamented and gorgeous in.lts decoration. At first : this house of worship did not discon tinue the practice of worshipping in ' "high places", but under the leader ship of the subsequent kings, Heze- : kiah and Josiah, the temple became the centralized place of worship. ' ' The second, or Zerubabel'a temple was that built immediately after the exile, about which we atudy today. In dimensions It seems to have been larger and higher than Solomon's but lacking much of the richness and display. Haggai asked, "Who is left among you that saw this house in its for mer glory? And how do you see it now? Is it not in your eyes as no-' thing?" This question emphasizes he contrast The Ark -of the Cov enant,' the mercy seat, the golden cherubim and many- similar features, of Solomon's temple were missing. The third temple was built by Herod the Great several decades be fore the Christian era. It was the temple during the time of Jesus. Un like the two preceeding temples, both of which endured for centuries, this last Jewish temple failed to remain a hundred years after it was built. Titus captured Jerusalem in 70 A. D. and his soldiers destroyed Herod's , temple. . Interesting to know is the fact that two other houses have since been on the same location. Hadrian in 138 erected a temple to Jupiter Cap itolinus. At the present time the Mohammedan Mosque of Omar is on the ancient temple site. - When the Jews returned from the exile their first necessity was to build some ' kind of houses to live in and to begin the culture of the ground for food but it wasn't long before a. beginning, was vmade to- wards rebuilding the temple, which throughout their history had loomed so large in their religious life. Seven months after their return, the Jews erected an altar for burnt offerings and fourteen months after the return laid the foundation for the new, or - second, temple. Funds were collect ed generally and - workmen1 engaged. The timber came form .the cedar for ests of Lebanon as for the first ' edifice. When the foundation was begun some cried and some shouted for joy.' The younger generation was moved with optimistic expectation while the older generation contrasted the pres ; ent meager beginnings with all .that once had been. As Tennyson says "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things". The Jews' relationship to A BIBLE QUIZ - .... ' .', , " -' . . In what three places is astrology condemned in thej , Bible?
