Rabbi calls for sacrifice on Temple Mount

Rabbi calls for sacrifice on Temple Mount - Israel Jewish Scene, Ynetnews: "The annual attempts to resume the Passover sacrifice received a first significant rabbinical backing recently. Safed's Chief Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, a prominent religious Zionism leader, has called on the public to perform the sacrifice mitzvah on the eve of the Jewish holiday, in about two weeks."

Ever wonder how the Jewish faith transformed after the destruction of the Temple in AD 70? How did the followers of Judaism go from making sacrifices at the temple for the sins that they committed to not making any sacrifices at all? How do they now think their sins are forgiven? They do believe, as Christians do, that without blood, there is no remission of sin.
israelnationalnews.com As the holiday of Passover (Pesach) nears, interest focuses on the Temple Mount, where the Torah mandates that at least one Paschal sacrifice for the entire nation – and ideally, one for each household – should be offered on Passover.
Perhaps subsequent generations take passages such as the Prayer of Azariah and use it as a substitute:
[14] For we, O Lord, are become less than any nation, and be kept under this day in all the world because of our sins.
[15] Neither is there at this time prince, or prophet, or leader, or burnt offering, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before thee, and to find mercy.
[16] Nevertheless in a contrite heart and an humble spirit let us be accepted.
[17] Like as in the burnt offerings of rams and bullocks, and like as in ten thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be in thy sight this day, and grant that we may wholly go after thee: for they shall not be confounded that put their trust in thee.
However, the Jew that is honest with himself still longs for the day of a rebuilt temple where sacrifice can be made. A day is approaching where a rebuilt temple will stand on the Temple Mount. Look for the signs that will precede that day. It is coming.
