What do the two pillars in Solomons temple represent?

The very meaning of the pillar itself goes back to ancient Egypt and symbolizes stability and is used in reference to society as well as architecture. Even deeper into the meaning it symbolizes re-erection or resurrection.Solomon himself named the pillars Jachin (established Rule) & Boaz (strength) but I believe it was a subconscious vision.When God asked Solomon what he wanted rather than ask for wealth or power he asked for wisdom of Right & Wrong. I believe his own heart was the key and the reason his rule lasted so long as to say he was chosen to rule by God decided by the will of his own hand.The very meaning is debatable I would thing one is a symbol of Ruing Justly and is the main pillar that holds up society today and I suspect the other is the simple knowledge and wisdom.

What is the difference between the synagogue and the temple?

A synagogue (as called a shul) is a place for communal prayer. Jew's pray three time a day every day. In smaller communities only the Shabbos prayer service may be done at the synagogue and the others done individually. A synagogue building may also be used for Torah study and other community activities. The Jewish Temple, located in Jerusalem, was a place where the scarifies described in the Torah were offered. People were permitted to attend the offering of the communal scarifies. Those who could not make it to Jerusalem would gather together in there own communities at the same time the scarifies was being offered. This also became a place for prayer, a synagogue. Since the destruction of the Temple we can no longer offer scarifies but we still gather together in synagogues to acknowledge the offerings that should be made and to offer prayers instead. The Reform, Reconstructionist, and Messianic Movements call their places of prayer a temple. However the concept of any temple other then the one Jerusalem is problematic in normative Jewish theology.


Why must Sikhs take their shoes off before they enter their temple?

Sikhs believe that the temple is a place of worship and should be kept clean and pure. Removing shoes before entering the temple is a sign of respect and humility, as well as a way to maintain the cleanliness of the sacred space. It also symbolizes leaving behind worldly concerns and focusing on spiritual matters.
