Interesting developments here on a school for Levite priests in Mitzpe Yericho.
This video was made in October 2009:
Note the first person speaking, Levi Chazan. We learn from JDL Canada that Chazan is the director of the English-speaking department of Yeshivat ha’Raayon haYehudi, the yeshiva established by the late Meir Kahane, founder of the now-outlawed Kach movement and hero of the Israeli Far Right. Chazan was speaking at a conference with members of Kahane’s family.
Note the spokesperson Baruch Marzel, self-proclaimed right-hand man to Kahane, who champions freeing the Rabin murderer Yigal Amir. Marzel is a former Kach spokesman who has dozens of convictions for nationalist-based criminal activities. We last met Marzel trying to convince Bar Rafaeli not to marry Leonardo di Caprio because he isn’t Jewish.
Of course, Messianic Jews – being holy cohenim already – have no need for another Temple. God has not commanded us to construct another Temple, instead he has given us Yeshua, who alone became our atonement. Consequentially, we are part of the new priestly order of Melchizedek. We do not need another temple: we read in Hebrews 9 how Yeshua accomplished far more for us than the Temple ever could.
Hi Joe, do you mind if I cross post this one?
Sure, please do, welcome as ever.

This temple building seems harmless and no threat to civil rights. I am happy with that.
I respect his comments about fearing Arabs… meaning Moslems… for wanting to throw them out of the temple. How sad. I have no solution for this empass. We all will need to respect and live in tolerance.
