Great Pyramid model was used for the blueprint of Solomon’s Temple and the Temple on Mt Gerizim. Proof of measurement was found in Nablus, where an imitation temple was built by the Samaritans. It was supposed to have been an exact replica of Solomon’s Temple for a high priest that was banished from the temple in Jerusalem due his having taken a Samaritan bride. He was told to either leave the temple or leave his bride.
The foundations of the imitation temple correspond in measurement to the Great Pyramid. When you examine this diagram remember, in antiquity the unit of measure could be different, for example feet versus megalithic yards, however, it was the number that was of prime importance. Incidentally, all measurements in this diagram are related by a canon of measurement discovered by Jay Hambidge a Canadian-born American artist who formulated the theory of “dynamic symmetry”, a system defining compositional rules, which was adopted by several notable American and Canadian artists in the early 20th century. I personally find the square root of phi most interesting because it contains the 272 number sequence in its digits, so favored by ancient civilizations and labels the numbers of the megalithic yard of 2.72 feet.
Dynamic symmetry is a proportioning system and natural design methodology described in Hambidge’s books. His system uses dynamic rectangles, including root rectangles based on ratios such as √2, √3, √5, the golden ratio (φ = 1.618…), its square root (√φ = 1.272…), and its square (φ2 = 2.618….), and the silver ratio (��=2.414…
The fact that Mount Gerizim is a sacred mountain still, after thousands of years, respected by the Samaritans for religious purposes provides authenticity.

After the Babylonian Exile, the Samaritans built a temple on Mount Gerizim, and the Jews built a temple on Mount Zion. I hope this diagram and post shows the blueprint proving the Great Pyramid model for both temples: on Mt. Zion and Mount Gerizim.
