Temple Mount, Jerusalem Rabbis
Jerusalem rabbis issue stark warning: "Stay away from Temple Mount!"
In a rare video with Arabic subtitles, top religious leaders urge Jews to avoid the sacred site.
Five senior Haredi rabbis from Jerusalem have released a video with Arabic subtitles urging Jews not to visit the Temple Mount.
The video was produced at the request of Jerusalem Mayor Moshe Lion, following advice from security officials who sought to address growing concerns over the contentious site.
The Temple Mount, Judaism’s holiest site, has long been a subject of debate in halakhic discourse. While all Orthodox rabbis agree that certain areas within the complex are off-limits due to issues of ritual impurity, there is disagreement over which specific areas these are.
