Zone1 How will the Third Temple be rebuilt? | Past, Preset and Future

[rylah]

As prophecy waned, Judaism leaned into wisdom and legal detail.

Now, signs of prophecy’s return spark a cultural disdain for sages—a distorted prelude.
How do we reconcile prophecy and wisdom—and ground holiness in this world?

Following Rabbi Kook and Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi, we learn the eras pendulum toward a synthesis: commandment infuse daily life with divine presence, and mature prophecy affirms that “a sage is greater than a prophet” — the time and place for this synthesis is today in Israel.

Monotheism: Judaism vs. Islam​

Deut. 6:4

“Shema” affirms One gives life to all, not denying the world.
Israelite monotheism embraces creation;
Islam emphasizes submission;
Christianity splits.

Why Jacob said Shema at life’s end—and why it matters today.

Are you arguing that Judaism doesn’t teach submission to God? Because I think pretty much all religions teach that. There’s a lot of power in surrendering to God.

 

[ding]

Judaism teaches a form of surrender to God, which is understood not as passive submission but as an active, loving alignment with the divine will, often described through the concepts of acceptance of the covenant, devekut (cleaving to God), and kabalat ol(accepting the harness of commandments). This involves abandoning personal strategies for God's perspective, trusting in divine love and care, and committing to walk in God's ways through love, service, and observance of Mitzvot (commandments).

How so?

I don’t see why wisdom and prophecy wouldn’t be linked. For any given thing there will be a certain number of people that are born with an extraordinary talent. For those that are especially tuned to God (prophets), they can’t possibly help but to become wise the more they use their talent.

What you are describing is the transition from natural law to legal positivism. Where instead of man voluntarily surrendering to God and following the spirit of law, men forget God and need more and more laws because they only follow the letter of the law rather than the spirit of the law.

The Third Temple can only be built where the Islamic Dome of the Rock exists. Destroying the Dome of the Rock would provoke the most horrendous Arab Israeli ever seen.

As a low motivation,
the Zohar uses stronger words.

There's submission as in "Allahu Akhbar" by force,
which is not a complement to the divine image in humanity.

And there's servitude out of a love,
awe, and breadth of understanding.

Dvekut is not an 'active submission'.
It's where your mind stands.

That paragraph is a salad.

The Dome of the Rock is not Islamic,
it actually has an inscription inside,
stating it's the Israelite Temple.


For Muslims it's a soccer field.

Now find an Islamic scholar who'll say that.

That would be considered heresy to claim
that the Dome of the Rock is older than Mecca.
I guess the "British" problem has reached Britannica.

I’m pretty sure you are seeing what you want to see. I try to see each religion in its best light, not its worst.

So you don’t actively submit to God?

Watch the lesson.

If you can’t explain it simply then maybe it’s not true or maybe you don’t understand it.

that's nice. so long as you are not placed in a position of power

Why is that? Doesn’t Judaism teach religious tolerance?

I don’t see how. Crimes are investigated on a case by case basis based upon means, opportunity and motivation.

Just because I try to see each religion in its best light doesn’t mean I would suspend reason and accountability.
