Thank-you Marnie... your advice is always so helpful. I am going through some very trying times right now that involve decisions from myself and from another person so this segment put things in a better perspective for me. Sometimes I feel God is punishing me for making the wrong decisions, even though I don't know if I'm making the wrong decisions! I'm looking forward to your next segment because I need advice for dealing with other people's decisions... this other person in my life is making their decisions based on my decisions and it's hurting a lot of people... it's very confusing and I don't know how to handle it so I've stopped making decisions regarding this situation for the time being... until I can see the right thing to do. Well, thank-you for helping me gain a little clarity.

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this, perhaps you can move it to the correct place, but Having played my harp for a Rabbi sharing his Holocaust experiences at our ward building I have been watching Israel with closer eye: thus this email:

Third Temple preparations begin with priestly garb
Jul. 1, 2008
DANIELLE KUBES , THE JERUSALEM POST
Wearing a turban and a light blue tunic threaded with silver, a man stands
in a workshop in Jerusalem's Old City beside spools of white thread affixed
to sewing machines. A painting of high priests performing an animal
sacrifice beside the First Temple illustrates the function of the room.
On Monday, the Temple Institute started preparing to build a Third Temple on
Jerusalem's Mount Moriah, the site of the Dome of the Rock and the Aksa
mosque, by inaugurating a workshop that manufactures priestly garments.
After Efrat Chief Rabbi Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, a Kohen himself, gets measured
for his own set of Kohanim garments, Aviad Jeruffi, the clothing's designer,
strums "To Ascend to the Temple Mount" on his guitar in celebration.
Priestly garments have not been worn since the destruction of the Second
Temple by Rome in 70 CE and cannot be functional until a Third Temple is
constructed.
Kohanim, priests directly descended from Moses's brother Aaron, are
recognized by the Institute as such if their paternal grandfather observed
the tradition. Today, they have special religious responsibilities; in days
of yore they performed the most significant duties within the Temple.
Approximately one-third of the commandments in the Torah cannot be
accomplished without a temple, including the obligations of the Kohanim.
But a Third Temple seems a flighty dream with nightmarish political
implications to many, as both a shrine, the Dome of the Rock, and the Aksa
mosque, Islam's third holiest structure, currently stand on the Temple
Mount.
Rabbi Yehuda Glick, director of the Temple Institute, says he assumes
Muslims will be supportive when the Temple is ready to be built:
"We already have some Muslims who are secretly in touch with us," he says.
When the Temple is rebuilt, Kohanim must wear the proper outfit to perform
their obligations, Glick continues.
Each set has a turban, tunic pants and belt and is individually tailored at
a cost of NIS 2,500.
"If it were a bathrobe for watching SNL [Saturday Night Live], it would not
be worth it. But we're talking about people who have a very strong yearning
for working in the Beit Hamikdash [Temple]," says Glick.
Years of diligent research was needed to create the garments in conformance
with Jewish law.
Special flaxen thread was imported from India and overseas travel was
necessary to obtain the correct colors for the clothes, including to
Istanbul, to purchase mountain worms from which the correct shade of crimson
is derived.
The secret of the correct shade of blue has been lost since the destruction
of the Second Temple, as the identity of chilazon, the snail from which it
was extracted, was uncertain until the Ptil Tekhelet nonprofit organization
identified it as the murex trunculus, aka hexaplex trunculus, the banded
dye-murex found near the Mediterranean Sea.
"The Temple is not a message [just for] the Jewish people. It reunites the
world all around one central prayer house. All the prophets say that at the
End Times all the nations will be coming to Jerusalem and take part of
building [the Temple]," Glick says.
