The temple on Mount Moriah:
The Mount Moriah is the place where Solomon the son of David built the Temple of Mount in Jerusalem:
2 Chronicles 3
Solomon Builds the Temple
1 Then Solomon began to build the Temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where Yahweh had appeared to his father David. It was on the threshing floor of Araunah.
The King of Solomon built the Temple on Mount Moriah because it was the same place where Abraham went to sacrifice his only son Isaac;

Genesis 22
Abraham’s Faith Confirmed
1 Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!”And he said, “Here I am.”
2 Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.”
4 On the third day Abraham looked up ( The resurrection?) and saw the place in the distance.
7 But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father!”
And he said, “Here I am, my son.”
Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?”
9 Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
11 But the Angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!”
So he said, “Here I am.”
12 And He said, “Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.”
13 Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns.
The Explanation:
When Abraham took his son Isaac up into Mount Moriah, God sent down from heaven a ram for the redemption of Isaac. And Isaac was not slaughtered, but the ram which had come down from heaven was slaughtered. Now Abraham is to be interpreted God the Father, and Isaac is to be interpreted as a symbol of Messiah the Son. And when He came down from heaven for the salvation of Adam and his sons, the Godhead which had come down from heaven was not slain, but His body which He had put on for our sakes, that earthly body which He had put on from Mary, was slain.
Can ye understand and know that likeness and similitude for the earthly being Isaac, the son of Abraham, who was an offering of the will of his father? The heavenly ram became a redemption (or, substitute), and the son of Abraham was redeemed. And as for Him Who came down, the Son of God, He became the redemption of the Godhead, His body for the earthly, and He died in His body, the Godhead suffering in no wise and remaining unchanged; and the mortal became living in the Resurrection with the Godhead. And it is clearly manifest: in the Messiah, the Son of God, hath redeemed us, He hath magnified us men. The Kebra Nagast a translation of MN.
The Temple Mount is the most important religious site in the Old City of Jerusalem where it is now the dome of the Rock and inside of this location is found the Ancient Rock where Abraham put his son Isaac to be sacrificed, It was subsequently the Holy of Holies of the Temple, the Most Holy Place, the site where it was placed the Ark of the Covenant:
The Prophecies:
Psalm 118:22 The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; 23Yahweh has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
Isaiah 28:16 So this is what the Sovereign Yahweh says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic".
Acts 4:11 For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says, 'The stone that you builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.'
