	Redating the Building of the 'Second' Temple by Diana Edelman
		The temple in Jerusalem was destroyed in 586 BCE by the Neo-Babylonians, who made Judah into the province of Yehud, and it was not rebuilt until sometime after the Persians conquered the Babylonians and became the new masters of the ancient Levant (538-333 BCE).
		Thus, it seems that the rebuilding of the temple needs to be shifted later, since the rebuilding of the city walls seems to be correctly located under Artaxerxes, assuming that the reported conflicts between Sanballat and Nehemiah are grounded on knowledge that these two men were in office contemporaneously (chapter 1).
		He worked on the principle that the temple was rebuilt in a way that corresponded to all of God’s prophetically mediated promises about when and what would transpire (chapter 3) and used the standard template for temple-building to frame his account, as did the arrangers of Haggai and Zechariah 1-8 (chapter 3).

	Tabory: Second Temple Non-Temple Liturgy
		In Second Temple times we find the priestly blessing used both in the context of the daily sacrifice, as noted above, and in two instances of non-sacrificial context: the ma'amadot and the reading of the sh'ma conducted outside the area of sacrifice (in the Chamber of the Hewn Stones; Mishnah Tamid 5:1).
		In the Temple it was recited as "one blessing" while outside the Temple it was recited as "three blessings" (Tamid 7:2).
