EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: El Jebel Temple, Denver, Colorado, USA (circa 1920) This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and mystery of El Jebel Temple, an architectural masterpiece nestled in the heart of Denver, Colorado, USA. Built in the early 1920s, this temple is a testament to the rich cultural diversity and historical significance of the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine (A.A.O.N.M.S.). The temple, with its distinctive Eastern Islamic architectural style, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, its large, majestic dome reaching for the sky. The intricate patterns and ornate details adorning the temple's facade reflect the order's commitment to preserving the history and traditions of the Islamic world. The A.A.O.N.M.S. is a fraternal organization that traces its origins to the Masonic tradition. El Jebel Temple, specifically, was established in Denver in 1921 and has since served as a gathering place for members of the order. The temple's name, El Jebel, translates to "the mountain" in Arabic, symbolizing the organization's dedication to climbing the mountain of knowledge and enlightenment. The temple's architecture is a unique blend of various Islamic architectural styles, including the use of arches, domes, and intricate geometric patterns. The design pays homage to the grand mosques and palaces of the Middle East while incorporating local materials and techniques. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was more connected through the exchange of ideas and cultural influences. The El Jebel Temple in Denver serves as a reminder of the rich history and diversity that exists within the United States and the broader global community.
