The Most Puzzling Dead Sea Scroll : Rebuilding the Jewish Temple at the End of the Age! 

James Tabor channel keeps on giving. should easily have over a 100k subs

If Josephus is correct he states that Herod completely dismantled the second temple, complete to the foundations stones. Then built---- not REBUILT---- a new temple, a THIRD temple. So why shouldn't we call things what they are?

Thanks I learned alot

My understanding is Yahusha was crucified on the 4th day of the year 30AD. ( Wednesday). He had to be buried by sunset, the start of the 5th day… First day of the week of unleavened bread. Key is “ 3 days and 3 nights in the earth.” Wed-Thursday- one day( and night) Thursday-Friday- second day ( and night) Friday to Saturday- third day ( and night. Thus… by sunset on the weekly Sabbath… Yahusha had risen. Just need to be able to count… and know that Yahusha rode his steed into Jerusalem on the weekly Sabbath, not Sunday, as the RCC says.

Seven pair is 14 entering the ark, not two by two. Hey, doesn't the Hebrew say seven of every clean animal? 😳

“No stumbling blocks in front of the blind”

What about Judah marrying his son's wife? Then there was the law that if a man died his brother should marry his widow so that he would have offspring hence the story of Ruth? Somebody's gotta make up their mind.

Why does the name James Tabor sound so familiar?

Assuming of course that he existed, King David was part Moabite through his great-grandmother Ruth...

the 15 would have been the weekly sabbath if following the lunar cycle

Thomas helped , look he doesn’t come back until 7 or 8 days later

recently I read about Moses divorcing Zipporah, and remarrying the Cushite from these words in Scripture. Exo 18:2 Then Yithro, Mosheh’s father in law, took Tsipporah, Mosheh’s woman, after he had sent her back, H7964 ַ⁠ shillûach shillûach shil-loo'-akh, shil-loo'-akh From H7971; (only in plural) a dismissal, that is, (of a wife) divorce (especially the document); also (of a daughter) dower: - presents, have sent back. so??? I admit, I did not believe it when I read it and then... well Hebrew meanings are there. what say you?

There was an attempt to rebuild the Old Covenant temple during 363 AD. The effort stopped after an earthquake and fire shot up out of the ground, as recorded by several Historians of that time. Fort Antonia (Herod’s Praetorium, Acts 23:35) was built by Herod and given to the Romans. It was used to house the thousands of Roman soldiers needed to police the ancient city of Jerusalem. In Acts 23:23 the Romans sent 470 soldiers to escort one man. Are we to believe all of the soldiers from the fort were sent with this one man? During 73 AD the Jewish leader at Masada said the only thing left of Jerusalem was that which belonged to the Romans. Mar 15:16 Then the soldiers led Him away into the hall called Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison. Act_23:35 he said, "I will hear you when your accusers also have come." And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's Praetorium. Based on Acts 21:31-40, we know the Roman fort was above the temple because the soldiers had to go “down” to rescue Paul from the mob at the temple. Paul later spoke to the crowd below from the steps, as he was being taken up to Fort Antonia. The following comes from Wars of the Jews, by Flavius Josephus, Book 5, Chapter 5, Section 8. “8. Now as to the tower of Antonia, it was situated at the corner of two cloisters of the court of the temple; of that on the west, and that on the north; it was erected upon a rock of fifty cubits in height, and was on a great precipice; it was the work of king Herod, wherein he demonstrated his natural magnanimity. In the first place, the rock itself was covered over with smooth pieces of stone, from its foundation, both for ornament, and that any one who would either try to get up or to go down it might not be able to hold his feet upon it. Next to this, and before you come to the edifice of the tower itself, there was a wall three cubits high; but within that wall all the space of the tower of Antonia itself was built upon, to the height of forty cubits. The inward parts had the largeness and form of a palace, it being parted into all kinds of rooms and other conveniences, such as courts, and places for bathing, and broad spaces for camps; insomuch that, by having all conveniences that cities wanted, it might seem to be composed of several cities, but by its magnificence it seemed a palace. And as the entire structure resembled that of a tower, it contained also four other distinct towers at its four corners; whereof the others were but fifty cubits high; whereas that which lay upon the southeast corner was seventy cubits high, that from thence the whole temple might be viewed; but on the corner where it joined to the two cloisters of the temple, it had passages down to them both, through which the guard (for there always lay in this tower a Roman legion) went several ways among the cloisters, with their arms, on the Jewish festivals, in order to watch the people, that they might not there attempt to make any innovations; for the temple was a fortress that guarded the city, as was the tower of Antonia a guard to the temple; and in that tower were the guards of those three (14). There was also a peculiar fortress belonging to the upper city, which was Herod’s palace; but for the hill Bezetha, it was divided from the tower Antonia, as we have already told you; and as that hill on which the tower of Antonia stood was the highest of these three, so did it adjoin to the new city, and was the only place that hindered the sight of the temple on the north. And this shall suffice at present to have spoken about the city and the walls about it, because I have proposed to myself to make a more accurate description of it elsewhere.” The Jewish historian Josephus said Fort Antonia was built upon a gigantic rock, on the highest hill, and had passages that went “down” to the temple. Josephus described it as a large structure, instead of what we find in Avi Yonah’s modern model of the fort. Josephus also said the fort blocked the view of the temple on the north side. In the passage below we find the Romans used Fort Antonia as the base to attack the temple during 70 AD. They had previously gained access to the fort by attacking the foundation for seven days. (Book 6, Chapter 2, Section 7) The passage proves at least part of Fort Antonia remained intact on the day the Jewish temple was destroyed. From War of the Jews, by Josephus, Book 6, Chapter 4, sections 4-5. "4. Now it is true that on this day the Jews were so weary, and under such consternation, that they refrained from any attacks. But on the next day they gathered their whole force together, and ran upon those that guarded the outward court of the temple very boldly, through the east gate, and this about the second hour of the day. These guards received that their attack with great bravery, and by covering themselves with their shields before, as if it were with a wall, they drew their squadron close together; yet was it evident that they could not abide there very long, but would be overborne by the multitude of those that sallied out upon them, and by the heat of their passion. However, Caesar seeing, from the tower of Antonia, that this squadron was likely to give way, he sent some chosen horsemen to support them. Hereupon the Jews found themselves not able to sustain their onset, and upon the slaughter of those in the forefront, many of the rest were put to flight. But as the Romans were going off, the Jews turned upon them, and fought them; and as those Romans came back upon them, they retreated again, until about the fifth hour of the day they were overborne, and shut themselves up in the inner [court of the] temple. 5. So Titus retired into the tower of Antonia, and resolved to storm the temple the next day, early in the morning, with his whole army, and to encamp round about the holy house. But as for that house, God had, for certain, long ago doomed it to the fire; and now that fatal day was come, according to the revolution of ages; it was the tenth day of the month Lous, [Ab,] upon which it was formerly burnt by the king of Babylon; although these flames took their rise from the Jews themselves, and were occasioned by them; for upon Titus’s retiring, the seditious lay still for a little while, and then attacked the Romans again, when those that guarded the holy house fought with those that quenched the fire that was burning the inner [court of the] temple; but these Romans put the Jews to flight, and proceeded as far as the holy house itself. At which time one of the soldiers, without staying for any orders, and without any concern or dread upon him at so great an undertaking, and being hurried on by a certain divine fury, snatched somewhat out of the materials that were on fire, and being lifted up by another soldier, he set fire to a golden window, through which there was a passage to the rooms that were round about the holy house, on the north side of it. As the flames went upward, the Jews made a great clamor, such as so mighty an affliction required, and ran together to prevent it; and now they spared not their lives any longer, nor suffered any thing to restrain their force, since that holy house was perishing, for whose sake it was that they kept such a guard about it." All of this provides tremendous evidence that the Dome of the Rock is the true location of Fort Antonia. Josephus said Fort Antonia was built upon a gigantic rock and that rock has not moved. If at least part of Fort Antonia remained on the day the temple was destroyed, where is that part of Fort Antonia now? Watch the RU-vid video… The “Temple Mount” is Roman Fort Antonia, by Leeland Jones, to see the truth with your own eyes. The scorpion was the symbol of the Roman Praetorian Guard, and that symbol is found on the underground section of the Western Wall...

Who would trip a blinnd person? That is what I consider a ass. This is interesting. Thanks Mr Tabor.

it's the Kasbah build by Abraha (elias) and his son yaqub (shammai) , according to Dan Gibson the gains location was at Petra,

Christ was crucified on the wednesday. The day before the high holy day which was thursday. Which began at sundown Wednesday. That construct completes what Christ said that he would be in the grave for three full days and three full nights, thursday, friday, saturday, all the way until Sunday morning. The morning of easter. But the two holy days were Thursday and Saturday because they never have two holy days in a row and one was passover, on Thursday and one was saturday. The normal holy day of the week. The other thing that had to be accomplished, was because Thursday was a holy day the only day available for them to try and get the spices to prep the body for its burial was Friday during the day. And they were unable to get back to the burial place to treat the body meaning they could not do it on Saturday because that was another holy day of rest. Then they went on Sunday morning, either Mary before sunup or Mary magdalene, the sister of Martha, Mary the mother of Yeshua and possibly the third that is mentioned in I believe in mark

14:35 !!!!!

Had they not read Exodus 21:10 and Deuteronomy 21:15, which both talk about polygamy

Yes, in the bible Ezekiel goes to great lengths to describe the temple dimensions including 3 (or perhaps 4) gates into the city. . Then on the last page of the Book of Ezekiel the temple is described with 12 gates into the city! . LOL . Puzzling? .

Essene tradition teaches that the First Law that was broken was in the Ark and is a different 10 Commandments. That is the Law of the Community I believe. It includes vegetarianism

This text is quite interesting! Completely rectifying the problem of conflicting instructions in the Torah, and giving needed updates to the design of the Temple, all by the pen of Moshe, no less. Straight as he heard it from God. Completely unabashed about composing such a text. This must have been stored away to be "rediscovered" (a la Josiah) once the problem of Roman occupation had resolved. This could well be why Jesus followers were hated, they didn't cooperate with this agenda, as Jesus taught doing away with the Temple altogether. (With the prophecies fulfilled [not passing away], perhaps in surprising ways as demonstrated in Matthew) but the righteousness gained from following the Law is "surpassed" by even more stringent instruction (a la Sermon on the Mount, sermon on the plain). Jesus got in trouble, we are told, by teaching "as one with authority". Very much like this scroll does. Unabashedly overriding the existing scriptures of law.

The temple is in the kingdom of heaven, which is the new heaven and earth spoken of in Revelation 21-22. Two earth eschatology is first earth and new earth coexisting. Jesus returned in the first century, just like he said he would, and Matt 25:31-34 is about the start of his reign. The dividing of the sheep and goats in this passage is judgement, the great white throne of judgement of Rev 20:11-15. (Rev isn't in chronological order.) Isaiah 65:17-66 and Ezekiel 37-48 are about life on new earth.

The Third Temple was alreaady built on earth long time ago, its not physical, its spiritual, can not be seen with the eyes.Only those who received the Love for the Original Truth of God know where the Third Temple is, and how it is like inside and outside.🌹

its really funny to be old and a long-time atheist . i believe that this is the video that Mr. tabor says the temple probably looked very greek. he says that, because he knows the levant was a greek speaking city state and had be hellenized since 300 bc. all those things I heard about thru the years. yesus was a homosexual, a sahdu that smoked weed. that the wine was spiked, and it could have been planned that he was to be drugged removed from the cross and revived. the 3 magi were magic/wizards. the mystery religions were psychedelic rituals. the list goes on and on. I ve heard all these things for years and now they are all coming out because of people like J. Tabor and ammon hillman and probably many others. thanks for your scholarshiip.

The locations and specifications of holiness are much fractured by time and cult marxist substitututions. We're going to have to do some time team research to recover the right way to build a proper temple to El Elyon, unless our alien/extradimensional visitors already have the recipe in their data banks. Every people should have their own temple, and El Elyon make progress around them, served by the properly anointed Melchezidek priesthood in His absence, as Paul tried to do with the early church he attempted to establish before he failed in his messiah mission, succumbing to the lure of demonic power.

Exodus 4: 21 The Lord said to Moses, “When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then say to Pharaoh, ‘This is what the Lord says: Israel is my firstborn son, 23 and I told you, “Let my son go, so he may worship me. But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.’” So who was it that prevented the Hebrews from being released from Egypt? "But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go". Case closed, the perp confessed. There was no point in having Moses do a few David Copperfield tricks when YHWH made Pharaoh refuse anyway. Then this was supposed to counter YHWH's making him refuse, "but you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.’” Yeah that'll work, threatening a person's children is always a good strategy to get what you want. I can think another less violent way though, simply deharden Pharaoh's heart that you hardened earlier.

What category has _______. fallen into now? Fearful and unbelieving are afraid to try to pronounce YHWH; it's spiritually incorrect to lower Strongs H3068 to 'vague Hashem'. Appease the Talmud brood and secular groupies while insulting YHWH is a lousy strategy for anyone. I suspect Moshe Ben Amram wasn't referring to his commander as 'Hashem'; might as well revert to El Shaddai if YHWH's name isn't appreciated within your body.

Shabbboth or Saturday worship last forever. I really believe this is why millions turn from Dr Tabor nevertheless Sunday is not the mark of the beast .compelled worship is ....but it's the mark the name the number and the image....this has nothing to do with this lecture ... well God bless all.

3rd temple is already built.. St. Peter’s basilica 😉

The last temple is built with people not stones! . 1 Peter 2:4-5 Coming to him as to a living stone, rejected, it is true, by men, but chosen, precious, with God, 5 YOU yourselves also as living stones are being built up a spiritual house for the purpose of a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. . .

Just say yahweh. Who cares he's not even real

Why are you not honest about the translation of fornication? Everyone is afraid to translate it correctly. It is not all unmarried sex It is specifically sex with YOUNG boys.

The Dead Sea Scrolls are fake. By the way, your name, Tabor, is an Arabic name
