Temple mount folks love fires on mountains. 🤣
Before his death, Julian the Apostate, appointed his friend and general, Alypius, to oversee the construction of the temple in his day. According to the church father Gregory of Nazianzus, writing in Asia Minor...
within a year of the project, the Jews “in large number and with great zeal set about the work”; women contributed precious ornaments and carried dirt in their gowns. Another contemporary, Ephraem of Syria, a monk famous for his poetic hymns, reported that the Jews “raged and raved and sounded the trumpets” and that “all of them raged madly and were without restraint.” Later Christian historians left similar descriptions. These Christian reports are probably overblown, but coming from so many different localities, they doubtless contain a core of truth. Moreover, we have similar reports from pagan sources.

Despite such auspicious beginnings, work on the Temple probably lasted only a few days. Numerous reports, both pagan and Christian, attribute the work stoppage to a fire and, perhaps, an earthquake. The Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus reported that “terrifying balls of flame kept bursting forth near the foundations of the Temple,” burning some of the workers to death and putting a stop to the enterprise.
Starting riots all over the earth, till they get what they want. Some have to confess their sins for offending them with fablilistic history, ( bonhoffer movie site with confession pledges to be signed) and others to the drawing of blood.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus (331–June 26, 363), was a Roman Emperor (361–363) of the Constantinian dynasty. He was the last pagan Roman Emperor, and tried to promote the Roman religious traditions of earlier centuries as a means of slowing the spread of Christianity.

His philosophical studies earned him the attribute the Philosopher during the period of his life and of those of his successors. Christian sources commonly refer to him as Julian the Apostate, because of his rejection of Christianity, conversion to Theurgy (a late form of Neoplatonism), and attempt to rid the empire of Christianity while bringing back ancient Roman religion.
