Temple of Herod
Early Israel only built a tabernacle that moved about but it was a central part of a network of Levites and altars which created social bonds of "pure religion" funded through "freewill offerings" that was to keep a "peculiar people" both strong and free.
The Levites were to help keep Israel free from returning to the bondage of Egypt by providing charitable services of the LORD. That social safety net for society was the table that would not to become a snare like the tables and dainties offered by rulers.
After the people rejected God in 1 Samuel 8 and asked for a central government under Saul things began to get worse. The power given Saul began to corrupt him and he foolishly forced a sacrifice of the people.[1]
Many nations became dependent upon central governments and stone temples and their treasuries which were filled with the forced offerings or tribute of the people. Israel had had their golden calf before the Levites were called out and became the Church in the wilderness and the David started building a stone temple but repented. Solomon who increased the yoke of the people built the first temple and later in Ezra a modest Second Temple was built. Herod the Great would find the funds and a way to expand that temple of dead stone by altering the way oc\f collecting the Corban of the people.
Those baptized into Herod's government welfare system went to Herod's temple to receive the benefits offered by the temple, the "meats", from his "table". This was a Social Security providing public benefits distributed through local synagogues. More on the two types of baptism.
Judea began following this Roman and ancient social model that reached back to the days of Babylon and Nimrod in earnest with Herod the Great's great society. He provided a social safety net with its own free Bread and circuses with a system dependent upon registration through the synagogues and temples of Jerusalem and Roma.
His system for the Jew would include Baptism, scribes to do the accounting and a Corban that would make the word of God to none effect. King Herod also built temple for the same function as his Temple in Jerusalem including King Herod's Temple to Roma and Augustus.
Herod the Great had a grand scheme of a vast membership in a social welfare scheme called Corban.[2] You joined with a ceremony of ritual baptism after filing an application for membership with the administering “scribe”.[3] Payment of prescribed fees was required and annual accounting of what you paid or did not pay was made available to the proper authorities.
With annual contributions collected and recorded by the scribes this system of individual sacrifice to support the needy of society became popular with many people who were jealous and envious of the rich or just covetous of their neighbor’s goods. With guaranteed entitlements and forced contributions the apathy and avarice of the people flourished.
Members were given a white stone as a form of national ID[4] and Herod was able to expand his hope of a kingdom of God on earth by this religious system of social security (Corban) which provided for a statutory enforcement and collection from membership in the form of a tax.
Herod and the Pharisees with the help of a corrupt Sanhedrin had set up a system of social security where citizens had to pay in as registered members. This system of Legal charity by force would "make the word of God to none effect" and the people wold become human resources for the rulers who called themselves benefactors. This system of Corban would also cause families to breakdown as the primary social unit and curse children as a surety for the debt of the New Deal. It would eventually divide society rather than bring them together, weaken the poor like the Sin of Sodom, and degenerate individuals into perfect savages.
Pilate "... used the sacred treasure of the temple, called corban (qorban), to pay for bringing water into Jerusalem by an aqueduct. A crowd came together and clamored against him..."[5] Because those funds were for their individual social welfare and the people complained.
Few understood that what should have been for their welfare had brought them into bondage though they had been warned centuries before in the sacred text.[6] Paul and others repeated that warning for the First century Church.[7] But Modern Christians are oblivious because they hire pastors who tickle their ears with Christian fables.
Building a central temple of dead stone was never a part of God's plan for men. It was Lively Stones of a Living Altar which is God's plan for mankind. Jesus Christ knew why the "ancient men" wept in Ezra 3:12 at the building of the Second Temple[8] and came to take the kingdom of God from the Pharisees and men who did not bear fruit and was building that original temple of lively stones with men of faith who let God write upon their heart and upon their minds.
