| Israelite religious practices during the time of the Old Testament are detailed in various biblical narratives, such as in the Book of Leviticus, in the descriptions of the Jerusalem temple in the Book of Kings, and in the various prophecies against foreign cults. Further knowledge on the realia (actual objects) of the Israelite cult has been provided by a variety of archaeological finds.

important in the Christian
experience; indeed, it is part of the
