Exploring the Symbolism of Temple Foundations in Mesopotamian Culture

Standing on the edge of the chaotic primordial waters, the son of the High God beheld the vast expanse that spread before him.  With the terrible dragon, its fiery wrath vanquished and subdued, he could now turn his gaze towards the monumental task that lay ahead- the creation of his cosmic kingdom, but what would his inaugural creation be?  Among the endless array of possibilities, the divine architect set his focus upon one particular building project, but what was it?   Remarkably, the peoples of the ancient world tell the same story of what he built first.  Join us as we dive into the annals of the ancient world and unearth the answer…because, surprisingly, it has everything to do with Ebenezer…yes, that Ebenezer…Ebenezer Scrooge.
