Excerpt from The Temple: Its Ministry and Services as They Were at the Time of Jesus Christ

While thus deriving my materials at first hand, I have also thankfully made use of any and every help within my reach.. Foremost I place here the writings of Maimonides, not only because he is of greatest authority among the Jews, but because his vast and accurate knowledge of these subjects, and the clear ness and subtlety of his intellect, entitle him to that position. Next to him come the numerous writers on Biblical Antiquities, in Latin and German works on Typology - scientific and popular; treatises on the Life and Times of our Lord; histories of the Jewish Nation, or of Judaism commentaries on such passages in the Old and New Testament as bore on these subjects; and numerous treatises on cognate points. In my study of ancient Jerusalem, I had the benefit of the labours of recent explorers, from Robinson and Barclay to the volumes published under the auspices of the Palestine Exploration Fund.

THE TE MPLE, '01 CHAPTER I. A FIRST VIEW OF JERUSALEM, AND OF THE TEMPLE. .. And when He was· come near, He beheld the city, and wept over it.LUKE xix. 41. I N every age, the memory of Jerusalem has stirred the deepest feelings. Jews, Christians, and Mohammedans turn to it wan reverent affection. It almost seems as if in some sense each could call it his "happy home," the .. name ever dear" to him. For our holiest thoughts of the past, and our happiest hopes for the future, connect themselves with "the city of our God." We know from many passages of the Old Testament, but especially from the Book of Psalms, with what ardent longing the exiles from Palestine looked towards it; and during the long centuries of dispersion and cruel persecution, up to this day, the same aspirations have breathed in almost every service of the synagogue, and in none more earnestly than in' that of the paschal night, which to us is for ever associated with the death of our Saviour.
