Description
Jewish Temple Great Work

Version 1.2.1


Throughout history, one of the greatest wonders of the world was the Jewish Temple. It was first built by Solomon around 2930 and destroyed by the Babylonians in 3338. It was rebuilt in 3412, and destroyed again by the Romans in 3829. The Temple has never been rebuilt after that.

Until now.

With the addition of the Temple as a Great Work, you can now rebuild the Temple in CK2 in a more immersive way than just clicking a button. With multiple unique upgrades and amazing buffs, the Temple is now a richly rewarding building, worthy of the effort to make it happen.

Build the Third Temple, and bring the Jewish religion to new heights!

Unique features:
House of Learning
Golden Menorah
Ark of the Covenant
Court of the Gentiles
Table of the Showbread
The Bronze Altar
Sanhedrin
Soreg Fence
Washbasin
Gate of Nikanor

The game is still that good? All right you guys here is a historical update, from now on anyone can build the temple, you just need to put a jew in charge of Jerusalem. Enjoy!

know you're not gonna update this so this isn't a suggestion but it would be cool to be able to do this as a non-jewish character in a kind of hannibal that-could-have-been or sorta cyrus the great kinda thing

I'm both busy and lazy, and haven't played much ck2 in the last months. If you want to help implement this, go on, i will include it. Or fork this mod and make a version with that decision and bloodline, it's fine with me.

@Flint, would you be willing to implement it as a decision, since I would like to be able to restore the temple. Hell there could even be a custom bloodline given to the builder (Restorer of the Temple) which gives a +15 opinion to all Israelite religions.

Yes, need to have jewish religion.

Although this would be quite historical to implement as it was Cyrus's Persian Empire that allowed and helped to build the Second Temple.

Hi, here in 2020, um is there some special requirement to build the Great Temple? Because I can't do it as a Persian Zoroastrian ruling over the Kingdom of Israel. Nor can I build it if I tag switch to the King of Israel (technically viceroy).

Version 1.1 released, with a few bugfixes.

I know that Hakhel was a ritual. It was still one of the most central rituals in the Temple. The split between the Kingdom of Judah and the Kingdom of Israel was formalized when Jeroboam blocked the Northern tribes from attending Hakhel for fear they would rejoin with Rehoboam. Given his worry, I think having it make a large lowering of revolt risk makes sense.

As for the Sanhedrin, I did consider naming it "Lishkat HaGazit" (Chamber of the Hewn Stone in Hebrew), but decided to name it Sanhedrin instead so that it would be easier for people to understand it.

And it was supposed to have effects. Apparently we just completely forgot. So whoops. We'll be fixing that.

Art would definitely be appreciated.

The Hakhel i think is meant as a ritual that is performed at the temple, not as an actual structure that is built there. The localization describes it like this:

upgrade_flintstemple_hakhel_desc;Hakhel is a ritual that occurs on the Feast of Tabernacles once every seven years, in which the King reads a portion from Deuteronomy while the entire nation listens.;;;;;;;;;;;;;x

So when the player buys this upgrade, the money is spent on organizing this ritual, not on construction workers and building materials.
