Abraham’s Tomb: One of the Holiest of all Jewish Temples?
Almost everyone knows that the most sacred of all the Jewish temples in the world is the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, but far less well known is the name and location of Judaism’s second holiest sanctuary: the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron. Hebron, the largest city in the Palestinian Territories’ West Bank region, is sacred to Judaism, Christianity and Islam alike, and this is as the Cave of the Patriarchs falls within its precincts. The Cave is a complex series of burial chambers and caverns lying beneath a shrine known simply as the Enclosure of the Cave of the Patriarchs and is said to be the tomb of the three biblical patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and their wives. It is also rumored that this sacred cavern is the final resting place of Jacob’s twelve sons from whom the Twelve Tribes of Israel took their names. Throughout the centuries, the area in which the Cave is located came under the control of many different peoples including Herod the Great’s forces, the Byzantine Empire, the Crusaders and the Mamluks, and each occupying force left their mark on the Cave complex. Changes made to the site of the future temple ranged from the construction of a roofless walled enclosure by Herod’s forces and the erection of an ornate building known as a castle, or kalah, by Muslim occupiers to six cenotaphs - tombs - being built for the three patriarchs and their wives. Access to the Enclosure of the Cave of the Patriarchs, and to the Cave itself, is strictly controlled, and tourist visits are not allowed. Although both Jewish and Islamic religious leaders are allowed access to the Enclosure, they must enter through different doors, and, at present, no-one at all is allowed access to the Cave complex itself. According to ancient accounts, however, there is a series of three caves in the complex, with the first two being empty and the last one containing the six tombs. The Cave of the Patriarchs - the second most sacred of all the Jewish temples in the world - is currently under the control of the Waqf, a common law Muslim trust.
