Despite the entrenched tradition of the Jerusalem temple mount¿s identification, ancient descriptions of it do not correspond with the 36-acre area we see today. Instead, they suggest a temple site squarely in the City of David, on Mount Zion¿the southeastern hill¿600 feet south of the presently held site. This small book contains a compendium of some 375 statements taken from my larger book entitled The Jerusalem Temple Mount Myth. Taken together they lead to conclusion that is markedly different from what we have been told for hundreds of years. In this compendium, I give a quotation, its source, and an explanation for how each description serves to negate the current tradition. Even for traditionalists who wish to cling to their current interpretation, this body of literary evidence can be of great benefit for studying this important topic.

According to the Hebrew Bible, King Solomon built a Temple to the Lord in Jerusalem on a threshing floor that his father, King David, purchased from Araunah the Jebusite for 50 shekels of silver. "No other building of the ancient world," claims the Anchor Bible Dictionary, "either while it stood in Jerusalem or in the millennia since its final destruction has been the focus of so much attention throughout the ages." This stunning book, with its 160 illustrations, is a history of the Temple or Temples in Jerusalem from Solomon's time to the present. The book reads like an archaeological excavation, digging deeper and deeper at one site. Starting with a discussion of the Palestinian denial of a Jewish Temple, the book proceeds to explore the Islamic Dome of the Rock, the little-known Roman Temple of Jupiter, Herod's massive Temple Mount, the Temple built by the exiles returning from Babylon, and finally Solomon's Temple. With a lively and informative text to accompany the pictures, Jerusalem's Temple Mount is replete with archaeology, history, legends (Jewish, Christian, and Muslim), inscriptions, biblical interpretations, and forgeries.

Destroyed nearly 2000 years ago, the Temple of Jerusalem—cultural memory, symbol, and site—remains one of the most powerful, and most contested, buildings in the world. This structure, imagined and re-imagined, reconsidered and reinterpreted over two millennia, emerges in all its historical, cultural, and religious significance in this account.
