Old Jerusalem TopographyThe actual appears of the temple in the time before Babylon burned it to the ground is hard to determine because it was rebuilt on the same grounds in Ezra and Nehemiah's time. The drawings here are what it looked like after Ezra rebuilt the temple. |
Solomon's Temple Wall FoundationUnder this old masonry at the south-east corner of what used to be the temple wall in Jerusalem, the foundations reach a depth of almost sixty feet and go back to the early days of the monarchy. They were silent witnesses of the fearful devastation which the Holy City suffered at the hands of the Chaldeans soon after the final collapse of Assyria. King Nebuchadnezzar was the second ruler of the Neo-Babylonian Empire. (The Bible as History in Pictures, Werner Keller) |
