The Western Wall in Israel is the base of the

| Gen. 22:1-3 | "Now it came to pass after these things that God
tested Abraham, and said to him, 'Abraham!' And he said, 'Here I am.' And He
said, 'Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the
land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains
of which I shall tell you.' So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled
his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he
split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which
God had told him." Note: God provided a ram in Isaac's place. |
| Gen. 22:14 | "And Abraham called the name of the place, *The-Lord-Will- Provide (Heb. YHWH Yireh); as it is said to this day, "In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided." |
| 2 Sam. 6:12 | "And it was told King David, saying, 'The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.' So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness." |
| 2 Sam. 24:21 | "Then Araunah said, 'Why has my lord the king come to his servant?' And David said, 'To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the Lord, that the plague may be withdrawn from the people.' " |
| 2 Chr. 3:1 | "Now Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at
Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David, at
the place that David had prepared on the threshing floor of *Ornan (Araunah)
the Jebusite." Note: There was world peace for forty years following the
dedication of the temple. Note: The second temple was built there also. |
| Israel insight |
"The Palestinian Dome of the Rock is now built
there. It is believed in Israel that the Palestinians had nothing in their
Karan about Jerusalem so they developed a belief that Muhammad went to God from
the rock, and at great price, built their temple - with a solid gold
roof. |
