July 27, 2017 -- Day One of Return to Temple Mount


On the first day that Palestinians returned to the Temple Mount, It appears that someone placed a Palestinian flag on top of the roof of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.  A video has emerged that shows Israeli police removing the flag.  At some point in time, a conflict arises between those on the Temple Mount and the Israeli police.  A short video has emerged that shows a very short portion of the clash.  That same day a group of rabbis called for Jews to ascend the Temple Mount, provided they observe religious rules that include immersing in a ritual bath, not wearing leather shoes, and avoiding restricted areas such as the Dome of the Rock, which is considered the location where the Binding of Isaac took place, Jacob’s Vision of the Ladder with angels ascending and descending, and the site of the First and Second Jewish Temples.
