The paper reports:
It is written in the Book of Lamentations (5:18), which is read on Tisha Be’Av, that Mount Zion – where the Temples stood – will be so desolate that “foxes will walk upon it.” The understanding, according to the Talmud in the tractate Makkot (24b), is that if the prophecies of destruction have been fulfilled, so will be the ones by the prophet Zechariah about the Temple being rebuilt.
Speaking of the appearance of the animals, Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz, the Rabbi of the Western Wall and Holy Sites said, “One cannot refrain from crying at the site of the fulfillment of the prophecy of ‘foxes will walk on it.'”
“We, students of Rabbi Akiva,” Rabinowitz added, “remember how he consoled his friends when he saw something similar soon after the destruction of the Temple, saying, ‘Until the prophecy of Uriah with regard to the destruction of the city was fulfilled I was afraid that the prophecy of Zechariah (of consolation) would not be fulfilled, as the two prophecies are linked. Now that the prophecy of Uriah was fulfilled, it is evident that the prophecy of Zechariah remains valid.'”
“After consultation with the National Parks and Reserves Authority, it seems that these foxes normally tend to roam in desolate areas,” The Western Wall Heritage Foundation said in a statement.

King James despised the Geneva Bible because he considered the notes on key political texts to be seditious and a threat to his authority.
Unlike the King James Version, the Geneva Bible was not authorized by the government. It was truly a Bible by the people and for the people.
