A temple is a centre of Jewish national
worship in Jerusalem in both ancient and
modern days. The Western or Wailing Wall is
the surviving part of the western wall of the
enclosure of Herod's Temple. Since the
destruction of the Temple AD 70, Jews have
gone there to pray and to mourn their
dispersion and the loss of their homeland.
