The Stage Is Set                 31

                               of  the  Association  are  legitimate.'  But  the  refusal  of  the
                               man  in  charge  to  register  the  Association  contradicts  the
                               longing  of  those  who  pray,  'And  may  our  eyes  behold  the
                               return  to  Zion  in  mercy.'  It  is  also  an  active  command-
                               ment  to  build  the  Temple  in  Jerusalem  and  everyone  is
                               obliged  to  help  build  it  whether  physically  or  financially.
                               Now  since  the  Temple  area  is  in  Jewish  sovereign  control,
                               no  further  delay  should  be  tolerated,  but  all  must  act
                               towards  this  building  of  the  Temple.  The  founders  say
                               that  there  are  all  the  ancient  classes  of  Israel  among  our
                               number:  Priests,  Levites  and  Israelites.  They  long  to  be-
                               hold  the  Holy  Temple  gloriously  erected  on  its  ancient
                               site.  All  must  be  done  to  allow  it  according  to  the  Law  of
                               Israel.  They  also  believe  that  the  Association's  work  will
                               create a wide echo.
                                  "This   application   was   registered   with   the   Supreme
                               Court  of  Justice  a  few  days  before  Passover  Eve  and  the
                               man  in  charge  of  the  Jerusalem  district  was  asked  to  ex-
                               plain  why  he  should  not  retract  this  rejection  to  the  regis-
                               tration  of  the  Association  for  the  rebuilding  of  the  Temple
                               in Jerusalem."
                                  We  hope  that  the  information  in  the  above  article  will
                               better  enable  you  to  pray  for  our  Lord's  work  in  our  land
                               of  Israel.  It  is  becoming  more  and  more  evident  that  the
                                                                         6
                               hour is growing late! Please pray for us in this hour!
                             The  hour  surely  appears  to  be  growing  late.  Will  an  ap-
                           plication for official registry be approved soon?
                             Well,  it's  not  as  easy  as  all  that.  There  is  a  four-sided
                           controversy   going   on   over   the   Temple   possibilities   at
                           present—with   the   Moslems,   the   Christians,   the   Jews,   and
                           God  all  having  something  to  say.  Here,  in  brief,  are  the
                           various positions.
                                        WHAT          THE          MOSLEMS          SAY
                            The  Moslem  shrine,  the  Dome  of  the  Rock,  is  no  small
                            matter to the Moslems. The Arabs will certainly not stand
