New altar dedicated outside city walls of Old Jerusalem on last day of Hanukkah.

On the last day of Hanukkah, a group of Temple activists displayed and dedicated a new altar outside the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem.  A sheep was slaughtered earlier in the week in an abattoir (slaughterhouse) and one of its legs was later burned on the altar along with olive oil, wine, and grain.  The dedication of the new altar was the idea of Professor Hillel Weiss and had the support of the Joint Committee of Temple Organizations.
