Dome of the Rock

Hello Fellow Travelers:

You've all seen in pictures of Jerusalem the large, gold-domed mosque called the Dome of the Rock. What you may not know, it is a shrine, not a place of worship. It is a beautiful edifice that houses a large rock. The rock is the alleged altar that Abraham would have offered his son had God not provided a sacrifice (see Genesis 22).

It is now closed to the public. Still, we will ascend Temple Mount to view the marvelous structure and learn more about the Temple Mount's history and future. 

Shalom.

Pastor Rick
