The House on the Mountain
The "mountain"
symbolizes "raw nature", our God-given environment. At the opposite
extreme stands the "house", a structure entirely made by man, albeit
with materials derived from nature. In between stands the "field" - land
or some other natural resource that man has to manipulate in order to
produce his food and other needs. In today's world, the "house" -
symbolizing the man-made urban civilization in which we live - is
seriously out of harmony with the wider natural environment, and our
patterns of production and consumption are causing appalling damage to
the environment, but the Torah teaches that this can be rectified and
that mankind will attain new and lasting harmony with nature, just as
soon as we realize that the key lies in envisioning and constructing the
Sacred House - the Temple of God in Jerusalem.
