The Western Wall is one of the most iconic religious sites in the world. Tens of thousands of Jews travel there to pray. But what is the Western Wall?

Hey will you get to Jainism, or Hinduism anytime soon
Your comment about animal sacrifice not being allowed made me think how many humans have been sacrificed over the last two millennia, even as recent as the twentieth century, at that spot.
In actual fact! ,the truth is, there is no other place on earth that 124 thousand PROPHETS gathered on the night of MIRAJ, where the greatest prophet MUHUMMAD SAW ascended to meet ALLAH SWT(God) personally......! most are man made, but there are some true genuine facts about different Prophets who build the foundation & the other Nabi who constructed it long before ISLAM & continued in the early eras of Islam....MAY PEACE & BLESSINGS BE SHOWED ON ALL VERY SOON.... Aameen.
Two Jews were praying at The Wall. .the one ultra orthodox was swaying too and fro...banging his chest...his head against the stone wailing and stuffing notes into the cracks. The onlooker along side of him..not so religious asked him "Why all the fuss...what are you praying for?"...the orthodox Jew replied " I'm praying for world peace..the building of the third temple...the messiah to come..health and wealth for my family" " Oh really so what do you think so far?"...asked the onlooker...the orthodox replied..."Well it's like talking to the wall !!!!"
I'd never noticed the different layers of the wall before. Archeology is fun.
It certainly is.
Decades of the enemy’s pollution has infatuated the hearts and minds of all nations that have shared in the intimacy of the sorceries that have functioned through the Wailing Wall. Write My judgment concerning this place of idolatry and lift it up as a standard unto the nations that what has been prized in the eyes of men has been rejected by Me. Lift ye up this standard, Child, and be not ashamed.I will bring the Wailing Wall down from its high place of idolatry where many nations have come to fortify themselves in vanity. Will you swing and pray and offer up sacrifices to stone? Can a wall speak? Will you yet stand before it and call yourselves illuminated? It shall be thrown down as a mighty mill stone that has offended My little ones. I will cut off head and tail. It shall not save thee in the day of trouble. The strong clefts of the rock, I will witness against you that all who have prayed and slid their request into you shall be ashamed. For can a prayer be fortified in idolatry? Can an idol bring it to pass? Are not idols worthless vanities and those who sacrifice to them a heathen? I will break loose and divide asunder the sorceries that have functioned through the Wailing Wall that the heathen may go free and gain knowledge. I delight not in destruction, yet I will judge the high places of the enemy and bring them down into confusion on every side.
That wall is the remains of Roman buildings and has nothing to do with jews. Titus and Hadrian annihilated jews and built their own Aelia Capitolina. It has been proven that the Temple of Solomon was not on the Temple Mount at all. Jews have been praying in front of a simple fortification Roman wall for ages. Temple of Solomon was in the city of David.
@@zikzaki7253 What are you talking about, the Lord spoke Himself through word of knowledge about what takes place at this demonic wall of prayer.
@@faithfull7576 too long didn’t read.
More detailed info on the wall then I've ever seen. Thanks! Having the photos and pointing to the details really helps. I also never knew there were different time period of layers.
Very informative vlog. Overflowing gratitude.
Much appreciated.
God bless you more.
Well done! I wish this was even longer so you could get into more detail regarding history and the complexity of the Kotel. But this is a great introduction for those who don't know about it.
I visited the Western Wall some years ago, and even then I didn't get as much information as in this video.
Congrats man!
As an Orthodox Jewish raised woman I found it interesting how the inherent pushing aside of women out of public Jewish life can even be seen clearly at the kotel. There was a whole movement in the Haskalah of 19th century Eastern Europe that condemned 'enlightened' women & its STILL being played out now. Just one other topic I'm currently exploring in therapy 😑.
How were the women condemned? Interesting topic.
Keeping women ignorant is how the Edomites work. I think God commanded Israelite men to teach women the Law.
Your videos are very well produced and informative! Please keep up the great work.
As a child growing up in an area with multiple 14,000-foot [4,267 meters] peaks within easy view of our various houses, it always astounded me that this is situated upon something that is called a "mount" or "mountain".
Same thing that bugged me growing up in Germany where so many cities and villages like to use the suffix „berg“ wich is german for Mountain (like Nuremberg for example) yet 90% of those places are where there is no elevation at all
it probably was tall enough for people back then, exept for highlanders lol
Your channel is so great, thanks for what you do.
Excellent as usual! I’ve visited the wall a few times and yet every time I watch videos or read about it, I discover there’s even more to be learned.
Hey, I know you
@Genetically Modified Skeptic Nice to see you here GMS. 😎
It’s interesting that the practice of praying at the Western Wall is comparatively “recent” (well I guess some 500 years isn’t that recent, but compared to the entire history of Judaism it kind of is). It just goes to show how religion is constantly changing and evolving, and practices that one assumes stretch far back into the mists of antiquity sometimes actually have a more recent origin than you might have thought.
Ever since the Jewish exile in the first century CE, we’ve been forced to adapt our religion in a way that helps us connect to Gd as best as possible without changing or getting rid of Jewish laws. For example, sacrifices were given 3 times a day during the times of the Temple, but since it was destroyed, we’ve replaced sacrifices with prayer 3 times daily.
@odeleya1768 Sacrifice what or who 3 times a day?
@@ImGoingSupersonicanimals. Human sacrifice is not allowed
Yes ... and the etymology for the word "Jew" is only 800 years old. "Judaism", what ever the heck that is, is only about 600 years old! The Western Wall was built by King Herod the Great Murderer. It missed the Messiah causing Josephus of Esau-Edom to invent JeZEUS for pacifism. Edomites worship the Western Wall on a daily basis. God NEVER commanded anyone to worship anything krafted by the hands of men! The State of Isn'tRael is an Edomite State. Vatican is Cana'an, joinder: Esau-Edom + Cana'an? Genesis 36:2.
It's actually pronounced KOtel ( the emphasis on the first syllable). It means literally "wall". There was s a rabbinical saying in the Talmud about the Shechina (the spiritual presence of God) never leaving the western wall. ( I'm an Israeli Jew)
Your videos are great! When you come back to Israel you're very welcome to get in touch and see some of the Shomron, where we live. The Shomronin ( Samaritans) are only 20 minutes away from us :)
koTEl means killer
@@AlonMoiseyev קוטל is killer or destroyer.
כותל means wall
The western wall is called כותל (wall) in Hebrew
@@DeusHex i know, i just said that how the video pronounces it, means killer, not war

When I went to Israel, a bunch of people gave me notes to place in the Kotel, one of the most amazing things I've ever gotten to do. 🙂

I'm interested are you going to do a video about the Church of the Holy Selpuchure next ?
Yup, definitely.
That would be awesome.
When I went to the church of the holy sepulchure several years ago, the tour guide pointed out and explained that ladder that has been above the entrance for years and years now. The building is controlled by several different christian sects, and they can't even agree enough to make repairs to the building without arguing and rioting on one another.
Like a sitcom where disagreeing roommates have painted lines dividing their half of the apartment, each sect knows exactly whose wall is whose, where their turf starts and stops, and they fight each other over these divisions.

"where Abraham almost sacrificed Isaac." I would love to see your treatment of this as the foundational story of Judaism - which I first heard from Elie Wiesel.

what about the idea that the wall is not from the temple but the remains of the Roman fort the Antonia
It's part of a Roman fort. Fort Antonia.
Man you get to go on some awesome trips!
Amazing what people are capable of, thank you for the video
Thanks for giving your clear idea about the Western Wall of Jerusalem.
Everything that we consider as Holy is exactly in our mind . How the holiness of the Jewish temple had began - by the ark where they stored the scriptura and where they brought the scarifies - blood of animals , part of animals bread and so on . The main sacred thing for that time was the scripturas that was transformed to tora . The wall is a kind of memory of the temple .
Dear Andrew make please sometime, video about bnei Noach movement.
Thank you God bless you...🙌🙌
Excellent video . I just struggle to understand religious rituals and beliefs ,but each to their own.
Same here man and I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish community. The key (in Judiasm I donno about other religions & this is from my hurt & jaded perspective) is that logic can only be applied up to a point. The overarching things that I see dictating rituals & behavior are power, control, fear & 'tradition' (all of course depending on who's in power)
i thought it was called “the wailing wall”
Some Jews consider that derogatory. “Kotel” or Western Wall are the preferred terms.
Now its the yelling wall..
Herod the great gets no respect...
@@ReligionForBreakfast I had no idea. Thanks as always.
@TheCountryBumpkin7 LOL!! I LOVE IT!!
Thank you.🙂

Thanks again for an educational, informative, and put simply awesome video! I had no idea what the dome of the rock was or the significance of the western wall. It saddens me to see that women are still being put down in religious and other social structures. I personally feel that any human should be able to express their prayers and grow their connection with their diety/deities as they see fit. Obviously I don't get some traditions though. Peace and love forever friends 😁
I am curious, did you choose to release the video today because of the tenth of Tevet fasting day? Might be a coincidence, but seems appropriate
@perakole Probably. Still, seems like a funny coincidence
The only calendar to follow as a believer in the One True Elohim is the creators calendar (Genesis 1:14-19). It is written to follow the full moon for the "correct" Sabbath (4th commandment), day of rest. He says to not follow man's ways (the current calendar "Gregorian") which is meant to mislead the true day. We are to seek truth and when we do, HE will reveal it. He knew that man (romans) would change the calendar to deceive future generations. Yeshua was angry when the Pharisees "sold" goods on the Sabbath as it says in Matthew. He spoke truth. Pray for the mind of Yeshua, ears to hear His still small voice and eyes to see HIS truth and an understanding heart to discern between good and evil. Amen Hashem.
Simón? :)
Jus a gal on tube ....very nice video and my Buddhist friend went to this place ..I enjoyed writing some beautiful prayer s fir my friends and family and my friend placed them in the wall for me.
Will you do a video about why the canonical scriptures of Protestants, Catholics and Orthodox Christians are different (more/less books)
But what about the youtube channel known as Religion for 2nd Breakfast?
Thank you, your videos always make me pay more attention as its really interesting information. Thank you!
That’s interesting!
It's not the temple location, the temple is located at city of David.. Dome of the rock was a Roman Barack
@Flashy Paws ...exactly
@Flashy Paws Do you mean what we are seeing is faked from beginning?
Which is the real location of the Temple?
@Flashy Paws thank you my friend,you've taken time and wisdom to explain which i appreciate.
I now understand the location of the 2nd Temple is some metres away from the KOtel wall.
The only mistake people are doing is going to pray and wail at a pagan wall.
When i watched the video something was indicating "faked" and i think you know there's debate about that area concerning ;
~ the Ashkenazi Jews being NOT the true jews who ABBA FATHER ELOHIM YHWH is gathering but rather the synagogue of hashatani.
And majority of them are not believers in the Elohim of Avraham.
~ the narratives handed to us from the Vatican,our mother church are false eg the name "Jesus christ", christmas and Easter,Sun ...day worship etc,
which also removed the Elohim's moedim.
Shalom.
@Flashy Paws exactly......the Fort had to accommodate around 10000 men.....
@@justinamusyoka4986 watch documentary by Bob Cornuke it was in the City of David lower down the valley looking up towards the fort...as its already been stated the buildings all faced towards the Temple
What happened to the people who were forced to leave the area in 1967?
The invader Muslims where told to leave and go back to arab land
Just a note about pronounciation: "Kotel" is not pronounces like "Hotel". The emphasis is on the first syllable - KOtel. Also, it's called "Ha-Kotel", or "Ha-Kotel Ha-Ma'aravi" because "kotel" just means "wall". This is THE Wall.
Thank you elad lerner. I will change my pronunciation.
And is geder 3-4-200 and gedor 3-4-6-200 also translated as wall?
And chomah.
@@WGDO5805 Do you mean "gader"? That means fence.
"chomah" means a large separating wall, like in a fortress. A kotel means a wall of a house usually.

Hey. So my wife wanted me to mention that she wonders if you could think about doing vids on ancient norse/germanic polytheisms and maybe modern pagan/polytheist reconstructionist religions.
I think the non answer is a way of saying no. We don't have to make everything about paganism LOL.
I’d recommend you check out Old Norse Specialist Dr. Jackson Crawford’s channel.
Is there a name for the specific room shown at 1:44? About a year ago I had a dream that I was there. I didn't think it actually existed.

Hello , I am visiting the Holy land and my main objective is to place my prayers on the Western wall , will I be able to do that?
Yes
I came here for an education, thank you. I'm glad I'm Wiccan. I think everything is sacred, so my prayer wall is wherever is convenient or feels good. There is no fighting over holy places, because the holy of hoys is the soul where the spirit that goes through all things lives, the life force. It's the best place to connect with the divine.
Alright, I enjoy your videos but Im looking for a specific topic so I thought Id find a random Jewish video from you guys and ask... can you please cover the topic of circumcision? How did it differ in ancient times from what it is today? Was there overlap from Hebrew beliefs and Sumeria beliefs? Ive heard some suggest that circumcising an 8 day old boy protected babies from Lilitu. Any archeological and historical information you can drudge up on this awkward, but important part of this particular religion would be thoroughly interesting. Thanks!
Area by the wall flattened after a few days? I was there 3 weeks after the end of the 6 day war and it was still an alleyway.
One of my favorite places on earth.
Excellent video! Thank you for your hard work!
I always think of the old commerical with the singing line of " My dog's better than your dog" when I see religious discord. Everybody arguing their own personal, different taste on the outside for what is the same questionable mish-mash on the inside!
there's nothing like seeing it in person and approaching it.
The ' Wailing wall ' is not part of "Jewish" history, it are the remains of Antonia castle.
Been there.
Women also have a VERY small section compared to the men's section. I was so surprised how little space was set aside for women when I saw a documentary about the women of the wall. I always assumed it was just split down the middle. It's still a life goal to make it there.
And on top of that, they get rock and eggs thrown at them for "praying too loud." Sad, really.
The Ultra Orthodox really don't _want_ women praying there.
Reminds me of the scene in “Life of Brian”
ruclips.net/video/ffwFXGPRDu4/видео.html
@The Coward Liberius 1) even if that were true, it would in no way "even out" not getting to participate in their Religion's spiritual life, and 2) most Jewish Women don't get two kitchens, most can't even afford two refrigerators, and have to was the separate sets of dishes in plastic bins, so they're never in the single sink together.
No, no it doesn't.
Being excluded from participating in your faith, being discriminated against by your own people, doesn't even out. Not at all.
You should visit Hindu religious places in India dating back to the beginning of calendar. Kailasa temple in Ellora.
That is the Foundation Stones of Fort Antonio, a Roman Garrison.
Exactly, I was about to say that myself. Jews and Muslims fighting over a Roman fort is hilariously sad.
Where is your proof of this? You’re just going to ignore all of the evidence from archeologists and scholars that it is in fact, the western wall?
@@bazbuco (1) The Temple had to be built as near as possible to a water source. There isn't one by Temple Mount. Therefore, Jews would have been unable to enter the Temple complex because they would be ritually impure having to walk from the only water source through the streets to the Temple. (2) The spot that we are told was the site of the Roman Garrison is too small to hold 10,000 men, let alone all of the stables, workshops, and so on.
@@PLuMUK54 what type of water source? where does that assertion come from? cite me a source and I'll check it out. a ritual mikvah is enough and Jerusalem probably had/has hundreds of them.
I still wondering if the Haram al Sharif might have been Fortress Antonia and the Temple was simply destroyed somewhere in the CIty of David.
The Antonia fortress was further north, on top of what is now the Via Dolorosa. We know the Temple was built over the Foundation Stone because after it was destroyed, the Katz would annoint it with oil on each Tisha B'Av.
@@SamAronow But shouldn't the Temple mount be near a water source? I thought the only spring there was the Gihon

When did animal sacrifice fall out of favor in Judaism? If The Temple was re-established, would animal sacrifices return too?
If that was the case, then would there be a new Court of the Gentiles for money changers and animal sellers?
The Ultra Orthodox do actually want to restart animal sacrifice. The regular (or "Modern") Orthodox are on the fence, while Reform, Conservative and Secular Jews do not want to see animal sacrifice resume.
@@jesseberg3271 To be more accurate: Animal Sacrifice is believed by most Orthodox Jews to only be reinstated at some point in the end times, when Elijah will descend on the Mt. of Olives. There is a small group who want to force the issue, but even most Orthodox Jews see them as extreme; the consensus is to wait for certain miracles promised by the prophets.
@@LangThoughts I'd say you were being more specific, rather than more accurate, but yes, that's the jist of it.
All of you guys are awesome. Thanks for the replies.
Animal sacrifice fell out of favor when the second temple was destroyed by the Roman Empire. It's difficult to say what would happen if there was a Third temple, but reinstating animal sacrifice is likely, imo.
What a pain....
What is the behind the western wall ??
things that are not ok: women praying at this holy site
things that are ok: throwing rocks and eggs at people at this holy site
Chadwick have you got a Bible reference to back your miserable chauvinistic opinion?
Women are not allowed to put on teffilin, Tzizit etc but these so called Reformers are breaking the laws...they face what they deserve
bars sheesh that is a big claim. Do you consider yourself to be a Jew? (Just for the record I am a gentile.)
Women are allowed to pray here though
reuven tombing I’m sorry, but there is nothing in the Torah that prohibits women from wearing tallitot or tefillin. The Talmud even agrees that women are obligated to fulfill these mitzvot. However, women are exempt because these are time-bound commandments. Even though women are exempt from fulfilling these mitzvot, the Torah and our sages even agree that women do and are allowed to fulfill these mitzvot. It is just a matter of whether or not they are allowed to recite a bracha while fulfilling these mitzvot.
Muslims and Jews believe in the same One True God. Let's live gratefully and peacefully

It’s A Roman Fort! Follow The Stones From The City Of David, To Solomon Castel Above SW(Next To The Ophel). On The Western Wall Floor, It’s One Of The Buildings Of The Temple! NOT CAVES BELOW IT!
The Roman fort you mean ?
I think it's clear the Dome of the Rock is not the site of the Jewish Temple. It clearly was a Roman fort. It's shaped like a Roman fort. It's raised like a Roman fort. The door has the same shape as a Roman fort. The Al-Aqsa Mosque is in the courtyard of the Temple. The Bible says the courtyard will be given to the gentiles.
Why no mention of the debate about the location of the temple?
Right. The temple was in the City of David. That wall is part of the Roman fort, Antonia.
@@onefodderunit There certainly is lots of room for interesting archaeological debate about such possibilities. The popular "consensus" view is certainly too pat. These debates are too little discussed by serious scholars on the Net.

Muslims call it the 'al baraq wall' after the Prophet Muhammad's steed (supposed to have been tied there before he ascended to heaven). It's listed under that name by UNESCO, which is one reason why Israel is no longer a member.

I went there on a tour and the tour guild told us to put out heads against the wall to "feel god", One girl on the trip was really moved and cried. I didn't feel anything which was a relief haha but a big cold stone wall against my head, so it was nice in that regard. Not to disregard that girls experience but I think she was a little swept up in the moment with the tour guides rhetoric and the sheer height of the thing. The tour guild also said the bushes growing out the cracks in the wall were "miracles" so I was taking everything with a grain of salt from her.
Nice

How come masonry uses bigger and bigger stones the more ancient it is?
Thank you for the informative video!
I think it's important to mension that archaeological work in the west Bank, and east Jerusalem in particular is still been used as an excuse to demolish Arab neighborhoods and villages. Especially insidious is "Ir David Foundation" AKA "Elad Foundation" - an organisation devoted to the "jewification" of the mostly Arab East Jerusalem. With alot of support from our government, they've been involved in the destruction and degradation of the residents' homes, while misshandaling the archaeological sites and dameging them. If you go to Jerusalem, Please, don't go to their sites and tours. As an Israeli Jew, I'm furious of my people's hostory been missused in such a sonical way. They really don't deserve your money.

Fort Antonia
One of the first acts of the Israelis, upon taking over East Jerusalem during the 1967 was to give the 619 Palestinian inhabitants of the Maghribi Quarter just a few hours to evacuate their homes. Then the bulldozers came in and destroyed this historic district. This act, in contravention of the *Geneva Convention* was done in order to create a plaza big enough to accommodate the thousands of pilgrims who were expected to flock to the Western Wall.
