It is a myth that Mohammed got on his horse and together they flew to some far off place (probably Timbuktu), but Freeman being a good Muslim believes this myth. Maybe Freeman can tell us why Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Koran but is mentioned so many times in the Bible. He can also tell us why the Muslims are destroying any Jewish antiquities found under the temple mount. It is pathetic how the Muslims are trying to disapprove any ancient Jewish history in Jerusalem.There is a lot of contradictions about the supposed Mount Temple, when Maimonide visited Jerusalem he proposed that a temple in the city will unite the prayer of jews and this temple shouldn't built by humans but will come from heaven.
Concerning the place, some rabbis says that it's below the actual Alaqsa Mosque, others says it's above but other rabbis confirm that it's not in that place but near Jerusalem or in Nablus mount.
Professor in Tel Aviv university and Archaeologist Israel Finkelstein and his colleagues confirm that many biblical stories never happened, but were written by what he calls `a creative copywriter' to advance an ideological agenda.
Israel Finkelstein states:
"There is no archaeological evidence for it," he says. "This is something unexampled in history. I don't think there is any other place in the world where there was a city with such a wretched material infrastructure but which succeeded in creating such a sweeping movement in its favor as Jerusalem, which even in its time of greatness was a joke in comparison to the cities of Assyria, Babylon or Egypt. It was a typical mountain village. There is no magnificent finding, no gates of Nebuchadnezzar, no Assyrian reliefs, no Egyptian temples - nothing. Even the temple couldn't compete with the temples of Egypt and their splendor."

When Jerusalem was founded, Freeman's ancestors were living on the Saudi Peninsula like prehistoric cavemen.

What kind of BS are you trying to push? What myths? I've never heard such gobbletygook.There is a lot of contradictions about the supposed Mount Temple, when Maimonide visited Jerusalem he proposed that a temple in the city will unite the prayer of jews and this temple shouldn't built by humans but will come from heaven.

Just confirmation from israelis archeologist that this temple is a myth in history.
The Temple seems more realistic than a flying horse, which is the basis of the Muslims' claim to Jerusalem.
Everyone know Herod the Great did a lot of building. Rome.
