What's the Big Deal About the Sanhedrin?


One of my many followers - OK, it was Clover - asked why the Sanhedrin being reconstituted was worthy of note. The answer, beyond the historical significance, is that the chief job of the Sanhedrin was to operate the Temple. If the Sanhedrin is newly reformed, logically the Third Temple can't be too far behind. Apparently there have been meetings since 2005 to begin planning for just that. Since the Muslim Dome of the Rock is there, the political implications are pretty serious. You might also take a look at Ezekiel 37-38 too. Nobody knows the time or place, but we are called to know the season.
