The Mountain of the Lord

An exhibit of five intricately detailed models of the temples that were built on the Ancient Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The exhibit features the Tabernacle - the predecessor of the later Temples; Solomon's Temple; Herod's Temple; and the Temple Mount as it was prior to the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70.

These works were commissioned by Mr. Benjamin Adelman and designed by Dr. Leen Ritmyer. Mr. Adelman generously loaned the models to the Cultural Center where they are on view daily.
