Spies scout the Land

Are We Still Living with the Spies?

As we pray at the Western Wall and gaze up at the Temple Mount, we wonder why there is no Holy Temple today. In place of the magnificent House of God, there are silver and gold domed Islamic structures – and no Jews.

Although we do not claim or even attempt to understand the ways of God, we do know that the day set aside for the destruction of both Temples, the 9th of Av, had its roots in the times of Moses.
