[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] Egyptian Talmud professor says Temple was in the Galilee and was built by Egyptians

Egypt's Youm7 reports that an Egyptian professor at the University of Assiut has figured out the real story about the Jewish Temples.

Dr. Iman Tayeb says that her studies of the Prophets, Talmud, Maimonides and others points to the conclusion that the Temples were not built in Jerusalem, but much further north in the Galilee.

You see, she notes that the priestly families that served in the Temple lived in Tzippori  which is quite a distance north from Jerusalem. How could they commute to Jerusalem to do their service? (The answer is that each family would travel to Jerusalem for a week, twice a year, during their designated watch.)

She notes that this could explain why there haven't been any ancient Jewish artifacts found in Jerusalem. Yep.

But she also says that when Egypt was powerful in the Levant, it would build large garrisons. After they left, these garrisons would often be converted to temples, so the real Jewish Temples were just converted Egyptian buildings somewhere in the Galilee.
