Thread: Sanhedrin Appoints High Priest in Preparation for Third Temple

    Sanhedrin Appoints High Priest in Preparation for Third Temple

    -A significant step was recently taken towards reinstating the Temple service when the nascent Sanhedrin selected Rabbi Baruch Kahane as the next Kohen Gadol (high priest). The selection was made as a precaution for Yom Kippur. If the political conditions should change, allowing the Jews access to the Temple Mount, they will be required by Torah law to bring the sacrifices. Rabbi Kahane is confident that if that should happen, Temple service could begin in less than one week.

    Rabbi Kahane is a prominent scholar, knowledgeable in the complicated laws pertaining to the subject of the Temple Service. He is part of the Halacha Berurah Institute, established by Rabbi Avraham Isaac HaCohen Kook, the first Chief Rabbi of Israel, which deals with the elucidation of Jewish law from its Talmudic sources (Oral Law) and commentaries. He has played a prominent role in all the reenactments of the Temple services performed to date.

    This year has already seen much Temple-oriented activity: the Temple Institute has created a registry of kohanim; established a school for educating men of the priestly class in the details of the Temple service; and performed reenactments on all the holidays, including the especially significant Passover sacrifice.

    Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for the nascent Sanhedrin, explained to Breaking Israel News the necessity for choosing a High Priest, even in the absence of a Temple.

    We do not need a miraculous occurrence like the sudden appearance of a Temple descending from heaven onto the Temple Mount to make this decision relevant," explained Rabbi Weiss. "The only obstacle preventing the Temple service today is the political issue. If that should suddenly change, as it very well could, we would be required to begin the Temple service immediately. It is therefore necessary that we have a candidate prepared to fill the role of the High Priest, especially now that we have kohanim prepared to serve in the Temple."

    Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, founder and and head of the Temple Institute, is a member of the Sanhedrin but did not rule in this decision. He told Breaking Israel News that it was necessary for the Sanhedrin to choose a Kohen Gadol.

    "This is certainly something we should do now as religious Jews. Choosing a high priest and all of the preparations for the Temple Service are mitzvot (commandments) that are incumbent upon us according to the Torah," said Rabbi Ariel...

    Just as a sort of disclaimer... There are more than one "Sanhedrin" now active. Virtually none of them agree with each other. There are several groups who are promoting building the next temple and a couple that have fully trained members who are genetically identified as descendants of Aaron and the priesthood.

    Rabbi Yehuda Glick was a leader of the, "Temple Institute" for several years. He was shot four times in the chest two years ago. It is a miracle that he is alive because all four shots were from only a few feet away and all four struck near his heart. Today he is a member of the Israeli parliament. He, along with many other influential people are strongly in favor of the building of Israel's next temple. Matti Dan is another leader in the plans for reestablishing the priesthood and building the next Temple. He has money from a billionaire donor to finance the building. The donor died recently, leaving Matti Dan with control of the funds needed. Dan is himself a Cohen, the founder of Ataret Cohenim which trains for the priesthood and is fully trained as a priest.

    When I rattle off a bunch of facts and statistics, my students and tour groups often check my statements by accessing Mamma Google.
