The Dome of the Rock Shrine does not relate to Judaism. It relates to Islam.

The actual "rock" in the Dome of the Rock, is the considered by Jews to be the holiest part of the Temple Mount and therefore the holiest place in the world for Judaism. (However, since Jews believe that only the High Priest can visit such a holy site, Jews are forbidden by religious law to come any closer than the Western Wall.) The Shrine itself is a Muslim holy site.
