Soble, Laura. Beit ha-Mikdash  

Soble, Laura. Beit ha-Mikdash

Volume 14, Number 2  (Volume XIV, Number 2, 2005)

KEY WORDS: sandplay therapy, clinical example, symbol.

ABSTRACT: This article examines the symbol of the Beit ha-Mikdash, which translates from the Hebrew as House of Holiness, or the Temple, in the context of the treatment and sandplay of a Jewish child. Connections are made between the client’s need for a safe therapeutic setting, the temple as a free and protected space, and the relationship a client has with the therapist, the office, the sandtray, and the sandtray figures as creating a sanctuary.
