As we all know, the Bible is the word of God to humanity and the Nation of Israel. This is the general rule, but there are exceptions. One of the major exceptions is the Book of Psalms, which is the word of man to God. Even so, the Book of Psalms is a part of the Bible.

The Temple Mount is the place where man meets God. The Book of Psalms is the deepest dialog between man and God.

When the doors of the Temple were opened, the Levites would read the 15 psalms that begin with the Song of Ascent while ascending the staircase to the temple.

According to Jewish tradition Pentecost (Shavu’ot) is the birthday of King David, who wrote most of the chapters of Psalms.

We are hoping that the Temple Mount will finally be reopening on Sunday May 31^st after being closed ever since the beginning of the Coronavirus crisis.

Prophet Isaiah tells us that our obligation is to turn the Temple Mount into the House of Prayer for All Nations the word of God will emanate from there to all Nations. There is nothing more appropriate than marking this day with a global, live reading of the biblical Psalms from the Temple Mount together with all nations.

Join our broadcast from the Temple Mount on the first reopening of the Mount! This coming Sunday, May 31st, at 8 AM Israel-time (GMT+3), LIVE on our Shalom Jerusalem Foundation Facebook page and YouTube channel.

How will it work?

• The President of Shalom Jerusalem Foundation Rabbi Yehudah Glick will ascend the Temple Mount and read the first Song of Ascent, Psalms chapter 120.
• As he walks on the Temple Mount other spiritual leaders from around the world will read the following 14 Songs of Ascent – Psalms chapters 121-134 aloud on Zoom.
• When Rabbi Glick reaches the point on the Temple Mount that is opposite the Holy of Holies, he will stop and ask all the viewers to recite quietly at home together and simultaneously the rest of the Psalms that each one of them chose to read at that moment.
• The object: A joint, global completion of the Book of Psalms by believers from all over the world, while connecting to the Temple Mount.
