Untitled[edit]

There was a detailed account about the Templers by Mr. Gotthilf Wagner in the German Tourist Number in 'Palestine & Near East Economic Magazine' - Mischar w'Taasia). He was member of the Temple Society Central Fund. A summary was later printed in the same magazine 'Palestine & Near East Economic Magazine' - Mischar w'Taasia) in a 1927 number. (The magazine is a reputable source) Some examples:

1. The first visit by Christoph Hoffmann was in 1858.

2. The first settlement in Palestine was established in 1860 by a group of newly arrived Germans and later, in 1866, joined by four Germans from the Arab village of Medjedel in Nazaret.

3. The settlements were self-finanzed but later, in 1902, credit were facilitated by the Society for the Promotion of German Settlements in Palestine (Gesellshaft zur Foerderung der deutschen Ansleidlungen in Palastina).

There are 5 photos in the magazine not shown here.

The above text needs some improvements. I will of course adhere to the Wikipedia policies and hope not to make too many mistakes in doubt I hope to get advice from the group. Klyveren103 (talk) 08:40, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Should the Reference to the Knights Templar be on the Templers article? I see absolutely no connection between the two organisations, except the similarity of the names. But 'Templer' in the Temple Society context uses the biblical reference quoted, that sees the body of a person as a temple for the spirit of God.

'Templar' in Knights Templar, seems to imply a custodian of a physical place in Jerusalem: Their popular name alludes to their historical headquarters in Qubbat es-Sakhrah (Dome of the Rock), an Islamic shrine on the summit of Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, which they renamed Templum Domini (Temple of the Lord).

Indeed I see no point in the Knights Templars refference, the two have nothing to do with eachother. --SeeFood 09:09, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hey, they were germans —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.164.234.65 (talk) 14:54, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So all Germans at that time where Nazis? A little condensed, don't you think?

You are right, I will add some qualification. Astarabadi (talk) 07:01, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I recently saw an article about a Templer who married a Jewish girl and stayed when the rest were sent back to Germany. He's an old man now living in Ramat Gan.

I also recieved a powerpoint by e-mail of photos of Hitler youth camps in a templar settlement which a Hagana member found in 1947. If you want a copy drop me a line. Telaviv1 (talk) 06:31, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you have such photos, why not add one to the article?--Geewhiz (talk) 06:56, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1866 settlement[edit]

The Haifa settlement of 1868 is mentioned here. I have a German archival source which mentions an earlier settlement:

Ein im Jahre 1866 unternommener Versieh einiger Famlien, die sich in der Jesreel-Ebene niedergelassen hatten und dort eine Ackerkolonie hatten gründen wollen, scheiterte infolge ungenügender Vorbereitung und klimatischer Schwierigkeiten. Fast alle Mitglieder dieser Familien starben im Heiligen Lande.

Approximately: "A mistake was made in 1866 by some families who had settled on the Jezreel plain and wanted to found a field colony there. It failed due to insufficient preparation and climatic difficulties. Almost all members of these families died in the Holy Land." This should be added with a secondary source if possible.

Almost all is far over the top. Tragically many, yes. Arminden (talk) 18:14, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
