Amazing.
A
real
shock
when
you
reach
it
quite
how
big
it
is.
To
get
a
feeling
for
Jerusalem
in
the
time
of
Herod
it
is
essential.
What
an
amazing
work
of
art.
This
to
scale
view
of
Jerusalem
in
it's
hay-day
is
a
wonder
to
feast
your
eyes
on.
Then,
the
museum
can
take
you
hours
to
truly
soak
it
all
in.
A
one
stop
shop
for
a
COMPLETE
overview
of
the
Holy
City
and
Holy
Land.
Awesome
to
see
the
Dead
Sea
Scrolls
and
how
despite
it
being
so
ancient,
seeing
how
it
verifies
how
current
bibles
are
99%
accurate
and
the
differences
are
mere
grammatical
differences
that
don't
change
the
text
meaning.
The
model
(sculpture
of
the
ancient
Jerusalem)
was
my
favorite
part
because
the
guide
tells
the
stories
about
where
different
bible
events
happened
in
that
model
of
Jerusalem
so
that
you
can
better
understand
and
visualize
the
stories
told
in
the
bible,
and
understand/visualize
it
on
that
map
and
where
things
were
with
regards
to
other
locations.
So
cool!
Really
enhanced
my
later
viewing
of
the
actual,
modern
temple.
Can't
get
over
how
huge
the
temple
was
relevant
to
the
surrounding
community.
One
of
the
very
interesting
and
impressive
features
of
the
Israel
Museum
is
the
the
large-scale
model
of
Jerusalem
during
the
Second
Temple
period.
This
attraction
is
located
outside
the
main
museum
buildings
adjacent
to
the
Shrine
of
the
Rock.
