The Leontopolis temple -- Conclusion -- Bibliography. -- Abstract, on final leaf: `This study has been designed to investigate the nature of six holy temples that are known to have existed outside of the well-known temples of Jerusalem on Mount Moriah. Early Judaism has long been noted for its sincere attempt at monotheism, and Jewish temples during the diaspora stimulated traditional Judaism toward strict monotheism even more. The discovery of Aramaic papyri in the twentieth century has begun to bring new light into this relatively darkened facet of Judaeo-diasporic institutions. Thus, upon examination of the Aramaic papyri found at Elephantine and numerous secondary sources, the author has found that the "Jewish Temples of the Diaspora" have many similarities that justified their existence. First, each colony associated with the diaspora temples display political, theological, and military connections (rivalry included) with Judaea. Second, the diaspora temples exhibit striking similarities in construction when compared to the temples on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem.' VG dark green fabrikoid binder's cloth.
