On the one hand, very cool. Amazing that they got away with it. Significant, I guess that a Jewish wedding ritual took place on Har Habayit after so many years.
On the other hand, how sad is it that it had to be done so surreptitiously? How sad that they are so proud of something they had to sneak to do, and even after the fact have to keep most of it secret? How proud that in the Jewish State, with supposed freedom of religion and religious worship this is how such ceremonies need to be performed, like Marranos in 1492 Spain?

ReplyDeleteI updated the post with a link to an article about it
ReplyDelete"an actual wedding on the Temple Mount is a unique event in history, since the Temple's destruction 2,000 years ago," the institute said.
ReplyDeleteDid it happen before that? I've never heard of people holding weddings in the Beis Hamikdash or Har Habayit back when it was standing. Is it even allowed and not a desecration of kedushat hamakom?
Something is not right with that Temple Institute! They go by their own standards, as if they were some kind of G'dolim. Believe this was a very improper act!
