Visualizing the Mikdash: Two Divergent Memories

Hosted By: The Zahava and Moshael Straus Center for Torah and Western Thought at Yeshiva University

Watch the video series here

Two modern-day visual evocations of the Mikdash – one a monumental recreation of the siege and destruction of Jerusalem at the hands of the Romans, the other an intimate portrait of a Jerusalem shochet in the act of slaughtering a chicken – convey dramatically different portraits of the character of the Temple and our memories of it.
