Notes:
The Mosque of Omar with Al-Aqsa in the background. The Bab al-Asbat Minaret is in the foreground.; The photograph is in a book with a typed description. The description: "(Numbers, xxi:8.)--'And the Lord said unto Moses, make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that everyone that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.' The Mosque of Omar now stands upon the site of the ancient Temple. The Temple summed up in itself all the meaning of the tabernacle. Jesus Christ, who taught in the Temple, and drove the money-changers from the Temple, and claimed it as His Father's house, summed up in Himself all the meaning of the tabernacle and the Temple, and was the full living expression of the entire process of type and rite and shadow and sacrifice which preceded Him as so many means of training, and object lessons in the history of the Jewish race."
