Her book was inspired by a desire to prove (or disprove) Dr. Ernest Martin’s research in The Temples That Jerusalem Forgot. Ms. Sams wrote a second book in 2017, The Jerusalem Temple Mount: A Compendium of Ancient Descriptions expanding the argument in her first book, itemizing and analyzing 375 ancient descriptions of the Temple, Fort Antonia, and environs, all confirming a Gihon location for God’s Temples.1 Her books and articles greatly advance Dr. Martin’s arguments. David Sielaff, ASK Editor Marilyn Sams: The siege of Titus has been the subject of many books and papers, but always from the false perspective of the Jerusalem Temple Mount’s misidentification.2 The purpose of this paper is to illuminate additional aspects of the siege, in order to show how they cannot reasonably be applied to the current models of the temple and Fort Antonia, but can when the “Temple Mount” is identified as Fort Antonia. Conflicts Between the Rebellious Leaders Prior to the Siege of Titus A clarification of the definition of “Acra” is crucial to understanding the conflicts between John of Gischala and Simon of Giora, two of the rebellious [Jewish] faction leaders, who divided parts of Jerusalem 1 Her second book shows the impossibility of the so-called “Temple Mount” and demonstrate the necessity of a Gihon site of the Temples.

  • Jerusalem: City of Dreams, City of Sorrows
    1 JERUSALEM: CITY OF DREAMS, CITY OF SORROWS More than ever before, urban historians tell us that global cities tend to look very much alike. For U.S. students. the“ look alike” perspective makes it more difficult to empathize with and to understand cultures and societies other than their own. The admittedly superficial similarities of global cities with U.S. ones leads to misunderstandings and confusion. The multiplicity of cybercafés, high-rise buildings, bars and discothèques, international hotels, restaurants, and boutique retailers in shopping malls and multiplex cinemas gives these global cities the appearances of familiarity. The ubiquity of schools, university campuses, signs, streetlights, and urban transportation systems can only add to an outsider’s “cultural and social blindness.” Prevailing U.S. learning goals that underscore American values of individualism, self-confidence, and material comfort are, more often than not, obstacles for any quick study or understanding of world cultures and societies by visiting U.S. student and faculty.1 Therefore, international educators need to look for and find ways in which their students are able to look beyond the veneer of the modern global city through careful program planning and learning strategies that seek to affect the students in their “reading and learning” about these fertile centers of liberal learning. As the students become acquainted with the streets, neighborhoods, and urban centers of their global city, their understanding of its ways and habits is embellished and enriched by the walls, neighborhoods, institutions, and archaeological sites that might otherwise cause them their “cultural and social blindness.” Jerusalem is more than an intriguing global historical city.

  • Archaeological Activity in the Old City of Jerusalem and Its Environs Update 2010
    Archaeological Activity in the Old City of Jerusalem and Its Environs Update 2010 The map of the Historic Basin (aka Holy Basin) 1 Introduction The Old City and the historic basin surrounding it (known also as the "Holy Basin") conceal a wealth of archaeological strata from 5,000 years ago up to today. The Old City itself has been built in layers covering almost 3,000 years. The religious and historic importance of Jerusalem has for centuries kindled the curiosity of numerous explorers from all over the world. The first archeological excavations took place in the 19th century; since 1967, archeological research has intensified significantly, especially in the Jewish Quarter and the South Temple Mount area. The Israeli Antiquities Authority was established twenty years ago and has been responsible for most of the excavations in the historic basin during this period. Conflicting Israeli and Palestinian national sentiments, intensified by Jerusalem's historic and religious sites, make the Holy Basin a highly charged political space. In such a place, every archeological activity not only influences our understanding of the past, but has also political and social implications for the present. Thus, the archaeological excavations and antiquities preservation in the Old City and its environs have become part of the conflict, but also could be part of its solution. The first part of this report is a preliminary survey of the major excavations and preservation projects in the Old City and the historic basin which have been carried out in the last decade. The second part offers an analysis of their impact on the social and political situation in the Old City and its environs.

  • Standing in Front of Jaffa Gate, I Could Strongly Feel the Power of the City, and Even the Country
    Standing in front of Jaffa Gate, I could strongly feel the power of the city, and even the country. Israel, the country I love the most, was founded in 1968, and has a very vital position in the Middle- East. When I arrived in Tel Aviv, the capital city of Israel, I could easily feel the mysterious atmosphere of this secret place, a promise land of God. What impressed me the most must be Jerusalem, which is one of the oldest cities in the world, and is regarded as holy to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Masada is an ancient fortress built by King Herod of Judea, and was designated as the World Heritage Site in 2001. I still remember it was a tough uphill path, and it took me about two hours to climb to the top. I was so sweat then, feeling regretful to wake up at four that day. However, when seeing the amazing sunrise and capturing this fabulous photo, I suddenly realize the magic power of this place. Though there was once a tragedy happening here, causing more than 960 Jewish dead, I could feel the miraculous atmosphere happening around. No wonder it is said that “Masada shall not fall again.” When it comes to “the navel of the world”, I think almost everyone knows it is the Dead Sea. I felt so uncertain and afraid before I walked to the sea. Surprisingly, it was such an easy thing to float. Floating in the Dead Sea is awesome though I got severe sunburn afterward. After this unforgettable trip to Israel, it is not hard to imagine why such country, even having wars with Islam world, could still stand its position throughout the world.

  • Al-Quds Book
    JERUSALEMJERUSALEM The issue of Jerusalem have constituted, both in the far and near past, a basic pivot in determining the future and realities of the surrounding region. The POPULATION & URBANIZATION special importance of conducting a study on the Jerusalem issue rises from the current attempts to define the future of the region in the context of the ongoing political process and the accompanying conflicts, which are in some cases bloody and in other cases peaceful. Because of the importance of Jerusalem for both the Arab Palestinian side and the Zionist Jewish side, the From 1850 - 2000 determination of the future of the region, whether in terms of war or peace, depends on the method in which the issue is dealt with. The Zionist Movement has attempted from the start of its emigration to Palestine to impose new realities in order to decide the issue of Jerusalem for its benefit. The attempts were not restricted to physical realities, but included the creation of an impression and conviction through media and lots of books and publications that worked on forging the past and present history of the city, thus concealing the reality and truth behind a curtain of false propaganda and history forging. Thus, this contribution from the Jerusalem Media and Communications Center came to highlight the events that took place during the historical epoch between 1850 and 2000. We do hope that we can succeed in raising discussion over this issue and highlight the facts and truth and encourage others inside Palestine and abroad to contribute in this discussion and enrich this attempt towards reinforcing a conviction that any solution that does not guarantee the historical, political, national and religious rights of the Arab Palestinian people in Jerusalem will never be a just, comprehensive and permanent solution.

  • The Last Gate
    April 2021 The Last Gate The Struggle Over Damascus Gate in the Old City of Jerusalem After two weeks of violence in Jerusalem, the Israeli police finally backed down and removed the barricades and restrictions at Damascus Gate plaza that arguably triggered the violence we witnessed since the start of Ramadan this year. It is not surprising that the locus of the latest tensions and clashes was Damascus Gate, the main gate, and some would argue, the last entrance to the Old City which is still very Palestinian in character. Arguably, the tensions at Damascus Gate are a result of many small steps taken by Israel in the past few years to engineer changes to the character of the area. In 2015, Jerusalem experienced violence including a series of nationalistically motivated murders, known as the 'Lone Wolf’ Intifada. Most of the incidents in the city took place around Damascus Gate and Hagai/Al Wad Street in the Old City, the route leading from the gate to the Temple Mount/Haram a-Sharif.1 This year, the beginning of Ramadan coincided with the full reopening of the economy following months of shut-downs during the coronavirus pandemic. From the start, the police erected barriers around the stone steps in the plaza in front of the gate to prevent people from gathering and sitting there as they have done for years. 2 In parallel, and some may claim in response, incidents of stone-throwing at ultra-Orthodox people 1 Y.
