It is absurd to reconstruct the Hurva as if nothing had
happened. If we have the desire to rebuild it, let’s have
the courage to have a great architect to do it.
Should we in the Jewish Quarter have a building of major
importance which competes with the Mosque and the Holy
Sepulcher, and should we […] have a building which could
compete in importance with the Western Wall of the Temple?
