잎사귀를 내면 여름이 가까운 줄을 아나니
이와 같이 너희도 이 모든 일을 보거든
인자가 가까이 곧 문앞에 이른줄 알라"
(마태복음 24:32-33)
예수님이 십자가에 못박혀 돌아가실 때
성전안 휘장이 위에서 아래까지 찢어져 둘이 되었습니다.
이는 예수 그리스도께서 자신을 드려,
하나님과 죄인된 우리 인간 사이에 막힌 죄악의 담을 허시고,
하나님과 인간을 화목케 하심인 것입니다. (히브리서 10:20)
그러므로 예수님은 하나님과 인간 사이의 화목제물이요, 중보자이십니다.
또한 하나님은 예수님을 만물 위에 교회의 머리로 주셨으며
교회는 그분의 몸입니다. (에베소서 1:22-23)
하지만 이제 이 마지막 때에 아직도 유대인들은 그들을 구원해줄
그들의 메시아를 기다리며
"그러므로 너희가 선지자 다니엘의 말한바 멸망의 가증한 것이
거룩한 곳에 선 것을 보거든 (읽는 자는 깨달을찐저)
그 때에 유대에 있는 자들은 산으로 도망할찌어다"
(마태복음 24:15-16)
말씀처럼 결국은 그 적그리스도를 맞이할 제 3 성전
(멸망의 가증한 것)을 지금 재건하고 있습니다.
"저는 대적하는 자라 범사에 일컫는 하나님이나 숭배함을 받는 자 위에 뛰어나
자존하여 하나님 성전에 앉아 자기를 보여 하나님이라 하느니라"
(데살로니가후서 2:4)
말씀처럼 이는 그 적그리스도를 뜻하고 있습니다.
하지만, 이미 예수님은 2000년전에 오셔서,
바로 이 제 3 성전인 줄을 유대인들은 모르고 있습니다.
"형제들아 너희가 스스로 지혜 있다 함을 면키 위하여
이 비밀을 너희가 모르기를 내가 원치 아니하노니
이 비밀은 이방인의 충만한 수가 들어오기까지
이스라엘의 더러는 완악하게 된 것이라"
(로마서 11:25)
말씀처럼 이제 잠시 유대인들이 완악해 있는 동안,
그 이방인의 충만한 수가 차고 결국 환난전 공중들림이
(누가복음 17:34-35, 데살로니가전서 4:16-17, 고린도전서 15:51-53)
일어나기 전에 우리 이방인들은 하루빨리 구원을 확실히 받으시길 바랍니다.
"내가 너희에게 이르노니 그 밤에 두 남자가 한 자리에 누워 있으매
하나는 데려감을 당하고 하나는 버려둠을 당할 것이요
두 여자가 함께 매를 갈고 있으매 하나는 데려감을 당하고
하나는 버려둠을 당할 것이니라"
(누가복음 17:34-35)
"주께서 호령과 천사장의 소리와 하나님의 나팔로 친히 하늘로 좇아
강림하시리니 그리스도 안에서 죽은 자들이 먼저 일어나고
그 후에 우리 살아 남은 자도 저희와 함께 구름 속으로 끌어 올려
공중에서 주를 영접하게 하시리니 그리하여 우리가 항상 주와 함께 있으리라"
(데살로니가전서 4:16-17)
"보라 내가 너희에게 비밀을 말하노니 우리가 다 잠잘 것이 아니요
마지막 나팔에 순식간에 홀연히 다 변화하리니
나팔 소리가 나매 죽은 자들이 썩지 아니할 것으로 다시 살고
우리도 변화하리라. 이 썩을 것이 불가불 썩지 아니할 것을 입겠고
이 죽을 것이 죽지 아니함을 입으리로다"
(고린도전서 15:51-53)
아래 내용은 구약시대에 제사장을 통해 소나 양이나 염소를 번제물로 드려
죄사함을 받던 때와, 2000년전 예수님이 십자가에서 우리 죄를 사하시려고
대신 피흘려 못박히시고 이를 증거하시기 위해 부활하셨음에도 불구하고,
지금도 여전히 유대인들은 솔로몬 성전을 지어 제사를 드리려는 모습입니다.
그리고 성소와 지성소에서 쓰여지는 물건들입니다.
"육체의 생명은 피에 있음이라
내가 이 피를 너희에게 주어 단에 뿌려 너희의 생명을 위하여 속하게 하였나니
생명이 피에 있으므로 피가 죄를 속하느니라"
(레위기 17:11)
"이튿날 요한이 예수께서 자기에게 나아오심을 보고 가로되
보라 세상 죄를 지고 가는 하나님의 어린 양이로다"
(요한복음 1:29)
"그리로 앞서 가신 예수께서 멜기세덱의 반차를 좇아
영원히 대제사장이 되어 우리를 위하여 들어 가셨느니라"
(히브리서 6:20)
"또 저희 죄와 저희 불법을 내가 다시 기억지 아니하리라 하셨으니
이것을 사하셨은즉 다시 죄를 위하여 제사드릴 것이 없느니라
그러므로 형제들아 우리가 예수의 피를 힘입어 성소에 들어갈 담력을 얻었나니
그 길은 우리를 위하여 휘장 가운데로 열어 놓으신
새롭고 산 길이요 휘장은 곧 저의 육체니라"
(히브리서 10:17-20)
"예수께서 다시 크게 소리지르시고 영혼이 떠나시다
이에 성소 휘장이 위로부터 아래까지 찢어져 둘이 되고
땅이 진동하며 바위가 터지고"
(마태복음 27:50-51)

The Holy Vessels and Vestments
1. Copper Laver
The copper laver and stand, which stands in the
Temple courtyard between the sanctuary and the
outer altar, is the first of the Temple vessels to
greet the priests each morning. There the priests
wash their hands and feet before proceeding to
attend to the daily tamid offering.
2. Mizrak
The priest collects the blood from the sacrifice into
the Mizrak, and then spills the blood onto the corner of
the altar.
3. Large Mizrak
The large mizrak, as the smaller mizrak, is used to gather
the blood of the sacrifice, and to spill it onto the corner
of the altar. The large mizrak is used when sacrificing
larger animals, (cows and bullocks).
4. Three-Pronged Fork
The three-pronged fork is mentioned in
1 Samuel 2:12. According to Rashi and
Maimonides, the fork is used to turn over the
offerings on the altar fire, or to lift up
unconsumed portions of the offering so that
the woodpile can be rearranged.
5. Measuring Cup
Measuring cups are used for measuring flour,
wine and oil, of which specific amounts are
prescribed to be used as ingredients in various
offerings.
6. Copper Vessel For Meal Offering
The copper vessel is used for preparing the meal offering.
Meal offerings are made using various amounts of flour, oil
and spices.
7. Silver Shovel
The silver shovel is kept on the southwestern corner of
the altar. The shovel is used for the removal of ashes left
on the altar, the first task performed by the priests
each morning at the break of dawn.
8. Silver Vessel For Wine Libation
The silver decanter is used for the wine libation.
Wine is poured on the altar twice daily, morning and evening,
accompanying the daily service.
9. Lottery Box
On Yom Kippur, the High Priest reaches into the lottery box
and chooses lots. Thus is determined which goat will be used
as an offering to G-d, and which will be sent off to Azazel,
as an atonement for the sins of the people. During the First Temple,
the lots were fashioned of wood. In the time of the Second Temple,
they were of gold. The lots pictured above are fashioned of
both wood and gold.
10. Silver Cup For Water Libation
The silver cup, with the golden flask, is used in the Festival
of the Water Libation, which takes place during the Holiday of Succot.
At dawn, the priests and levites, accompanied by the throngs of
participants, wend their way down to the Spring of Shiloach.
Water is drawn from the spring, and carried up the the Temple
in the golden flask, where it is poured into the silver cup,
as it rests atop the altar.
11. The Silver Libation Vessels
One of the main aspects of the holiday of Sukkot (Tabernacles) is
the Biblical commandment, "And you shall be glad on your holiday,
and you shall be only joyful" (Deut. 16:14). Indeed, the pilgrims
who arrived in Jerusalem at the Temple's courtyard came to rejoice.
The focus of this rejoicing was the ceremony surrounding
the commandment to pour water on the altar - the water libation.
These vessels were designed and created by the famed HaTzorfim
company, Israel's most prestigious craftsmen of fine Judaica.
The owners of this company felt a deep stirring to begin creating
vessels for the new Temple, and they are now working on a number of
projects together with the Temple Institute.
12. Sickle
On the 16th day of Nissan, in a public gathering on the outskirts of
Jerusalem, the first of the barley crop is harvested using sickles.
This barley is then brought to the Holy Temple to be used in the Omer
offering.
13. Omer Offering Implements
Once the barley is brought to the Temple Courtyard, priests beat,
roast, grind, and sift the grain. A handful of the resulting flour is
burned on the altar. The remainder is eaten by the priests.
14. Abuv
The Abuv is a three-tiered stand. The top level holds a perforated
copper pan, and below it is a receptacle for hot coals. It is used for
roasting the newly harvested barley of the Omer offering, performed on
Passover.
15. Menorah Cleansing Vessel
The daily service of the Temple includes the cleaning of the seven
oil cups of the Menorah, using the vessel pictured above, (in Hebrew,
Hatavah). The vessel includes tongs and a brush.
16. Oil Pitcher
The oil pitcher is used to replenish the oil for the menorah.
The design pictured above is based on an ancient coin from the Second
temple period. This pitcher contains 3.5 lug, (2 liters) of oil.
17. Small Golden Flask
The small golden flask is used to pour olive oil into the menorah.
The priest pours oil into this flask from the larger pitcher,
which contains enough oil necessary for all seven lamps.
This smaller flask is then used to replenish the oil of each individual lamp.
18. Frankincense Censer
Once a week, on the Sabbath, the twelve loaves of the showbread are
removed by the priests, and replaced with new loaves. At the same time,
the two portions of frankincense are also replaced. The two portions of
frankincense are carried inside the gold Frankincense Censer.
Still inside the censer, they are placed on the table of the showbread.
19. Incense Chalice
The incense chalice, which holds "half a portion" (approx. 200 grams),
of the incense offering ingredients. The chalice is carried into
the Sanctuary of the Temple, where the golden incense altar stands.
Upon entering the Sanctuary the priest sounds the small ring-shaped bell
seen on the top of the chalice cover.
20. Incense Shovel
This shovel is used to remove burning coals from the outer altar.
The priest then carries the coals on this shovel into the sanctuary,
where the coals are used on the golden incense altar.
21. The Menorah
The menorah, made from a single piece of solid gold, stands in the southern
side of the Sanctuary. Each morning a priest prepares and rekindles
the wicks. The central wick, known as "the western candle" is required to
burn perpetually. The oil and wicks of this candle are changed in such
a fashion as to insure that it will never be extinguished.
22. The Table Of The Showbread
In the northern side of the Sanctuary stands the table of the showbread.
The table is made of wood, overlaid with gold. Upon it are placed
the twelve loaves of showbread. Each Sabbath, the loaves are
simultaneously removed and replaced by fresh loaves, so as to insure
that these loaves remain "perpetually" on the table. Miraculously,
the week old loaves being replaced also retain their heat and freshness.
These loaves are distributed among the priests.
23. The Incense Altar
Centrally located in the Sanctuary, between the menorah to the south,
and the table of the showbread to the north, stands the incense altar,
directly in front of the Holy of Holies, to the west. The incense altar,
made of wood covered with gold, is employed in what is considered to be
the most beloved aspect of the Temple service in G-d's eye: the incense
offering. In order to allow for every priest to perform this most prized
of offerings, a daily lot is drawn. Only those priests who have never
offered incense upon the altar are allowed to participate.
24. The Ark Of The Covenant
The ark of the covenant is the only object that is placed within
the Holy of Holies. Once a year, on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement,
the high priest enters the Holy of Holies, asking G-d to forgive
the transgressions of the entire house of Israel. Made of wood covered
with gold, it contained within it, during the period of the First Temple,
the Two Tablets of the Law brought down from Mount Sinai by Moses,
as well as a vessel containing mannah, and the staff of Aharon.
Fearing its capture by the invading Babylonians, King Josiah had it
removed from the Holy of Holies, and hidden in a chamber deep beneath
the Temple Mount. A tradition of its exact location is maintained to
this day. The above picture depicts a mock-up made by the Temple
Institute for purposes of research and instruction.
25. The Crown
One of the four "golden garments" of the high priest is the crown,
fashioned from one single piece of pure gold. The crown is worn across
the forehead, extending from ear to ear, (as pictured in the inset above).
It is held in place by a string dyed in the same blue color as used in all
the high priest's garments. The crown bears the inscription: "Holy to G-d,"
and is worn by the high priest at all times, while he is officiating
in the Temple.
26. Garments Of The High Priest
We are pleased to announce that the weaving of the sacred Ephod garment
for the uniform of the High Priest has been completed. The Temple Institute
has also completed the complicated task of joining the ephod to
the remembrance stones, and affixing the breastplate.
This complex project has been based on extensive research by the Institute.
With G-d's help this task has been completed and the results have been
made public.
27. Silver Trumpets
In the Holy Temple, silver trumpets are used during the Divine service,
as well as for announcing the arrival of the Shabbat, the New Moon,
the three Festivals, and for other various occasions.
28. Gold-Plated Shofar
The gold-plated shofar, (ram's horn), is blown in the Holy Temple
on Rosh Hashana.
29. Silver-Plated Shofar
The silver-plated shofar, (ram's horn), is blown in the Holy Temple on
fast days.
30. Harp
The harp, or nevel, is a prominent instrument used by the Levites
in their orchestral accompaniment to the Divine service.
31. Lyre
The lyre, or kinnor, like the harp, is frequently mentioned in the book
of Psalms, as being a feature of the Levitical orchestra which performs
in the Inner Courtyard of the Holy Temple.
You are viewing a never before published glimpse of the golden menorah,
at the very moment of its completion. Behind the three kneeling craftsmen
stand three of the Temple Institute Rabbis.
