JERUSALEM: The Eternal Capital of Israel and The Holy Temple for All Time with Rabbi Eliezar Breitowitz
Maimonides/Rambam, Hilchos Bais Habechira, Chapter 1
It is a positive commandment to construct a House for God, prepared for sacrifices to be offered within. We must celebrate there three times a year, as it states: "And you shall make Me a sanctuary." The sanctuary constructed by Moses is already described in the Torah. It was only temporary, as it states: "For at present, you have not come unto the resting place and the inheritance."
After [the Jews] entered The Land of Israel, they erected the Sanctuary in Gilgal during the fourteen years in which they conquered and divided the land. From there, they came to Shiloh, built a house of stone, and spread the curtains of the Sanctuary over it. It did not have a roof. The sanctuary of Shiloh stood for 369 years. When Eli died, it was destroyed. Afterwards they came to Nov and built a sanctuary. When Samuel died, it was destroyed. And they came to Givon and built a sanctuary. From Givon, they came to the eternal structure in Jerusalem. The days the sanctuary stood in Nov and Givon were 57 years.
Once the Temple was built in Jerusalem, it became forbidden to build a sanctuary for God or to offer sacrifices in any other place. There is no Sanctuary for all generations except in Jerusalem and specifically, on Mt. Moriah, as it states: "And David declared: This is the House of the Lord God, and this is the altar for the burnt offerings of Israel.” and it states furthermore "This is My resting place forever."
JEWS FOR JUDAISM is an outreach organization whose primary goal is to win back to Judaism those Jews who have been influenced by the following six threats to Jewish survival that are devastating the global Jewish community.
1. Hebrew-Christian missionaries convert thousands of Jews worldwide every year
2. Destructive cults cause many Jews to abandon family, friends and careers
3. Eastern religions, Buddhism and Hinduism are spiritual choices for many Jews
4. Apathy and ignorance leave many Jews unaware, unaffiliated and assimilated
5. Intermarriage is exploding with a 75% rate in some North American cities
6. Anti-Israel BDS on campus inhibits Jewish students from standing up for Israel and Judaism
To assist non-Jews who have left other religions, JEWS FOR JUDAISM also provides educational programs to help them embrace the Torah’s Seven Noachide Laws for Gentiles.
We achieve our goals through our worldwide Internet outreach, Social Media, free educational programs, educational literature and counseling services that connect Jewish people to the spiritual depth, beauty and wisdom of Judaism.
“I am so grateful to have discovered the wonderful Jews for Judaism YouTube lectures by Rabbi Skobac. I am a Jew who converted to Christianity in college, but now, thanks to your online outreach, I have returned to Judaism. Thank you.” – Rebecca G.
In a nutshell, Jews for Judaism saves Jewish lives and keeps Jews Jewish.
