John 4:19-24 (WEB)

19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”

21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father. 22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews. 23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

I just learned that the Graveyard on the Mount of Olives is on the west side and south side of the hill.

The East wall to the so-called Temple Mount is visible in the middle of the Left Side. WAY Bigger than I thought.
This is the view looking due NORTH.

You denounce holy scripture by Jesus Christ our Lord as not a contribution!? Now I know the kind of person you are.
Wow, you must want to make enemies, so that you have something to gripe about. That sounds like a typical Teenager to me, just my opinion. I will not give you the satisfaction. I asked you politely to start your own Thread. AND again, I will ask you Politely to PLEASE make your own Thread. I said Nothing that You could honestly say that I want to denounce Holy Scripture. This Thread is about THIRD TEMPLE NEWS.

Update on the RED HEIFER. Jews believe the ashes mixed with water, of a Red Heifer, will restore Israel's Religious Purity. I do not think so, but that is just my opinion. The Red Heifer must be sacrificed outside the supposed Temple Mount, and TRADITION dictates it is supposed to be on the Mount of Olives. The Priests MUST NOT COME IN CLOSE CONTACT with the Dead Bodies there, so if they choose the TABERNACLE has to be built on top of Mount of Olives, they will have to build a Bridge OVER to the Mount of Olives Graveyard, from the Southeast Corner of the so-called Temple Mount. After the RED HEIFER is sacrificed, THEN AND ONLY THEN, will the Jews be ready to Build the Third Temple. Personally, I still think the so-called Temple Mount is the WRONG SITE, the Temple belongs in the City of David.


I think that is the closest back fence of the Graveyard. I am guessing that a Helicopter ride would be out of the question, because the parts made in foreign countries would defile them. A hot Air Balloon ride may be Possible, if all the parts were made in ISRAEL, not sure though. ISRAEL allowed all a these graves, without thinking they would need a path to the top of Mount of Olives some day, for the Red Heifer Sacrifice in the Tabernacle.

I have a sneaky suspicion that the Jews will opt for an alternate location for the Tabernacle, instead of the Mount of Olives. It would not surprise me if the opt to put in on Ophel, think it is outside the so-called Temple Mount; but in reality it is the Location of the Temple of Solomon. Then they will call it the TABERNACLE OF DAVID.

2 Samuel 6:17-18 (NKJV)
17 So they brought the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place in the midst of the tabernacle that David had erected for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 And when David had finished offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.

I Think that is the Sacrifice Altar found in the City of David.



Amos 9:11 (NKJV)
11 "On that day I will raise up The tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, And repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins, And rebuild it as in the days of old;

And the Jews think they may have to rebuild it, BUT look who the New Testament says, WILL REBUILD IT.

Acts 15:16-18 (NASB)
16 'AFTER THESE THINGS I will return, AND I WILL REBUILD THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID WHICH HAS FALLEN, AND I WILL REBUILD ITS RUINS, AND I WILL RESTORE IT,
17 SO THAT THE REST OF MANKIND MAY SEEK THE LORD, AND ALL THE GENTILES WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME,'
18 SAYS THE LORD, WHO MAKES THESE THINGS KNOWN FROM LONG AGO.


So the Red Heifer has to be Sacrificed and Burn on the Altar, to purify the Priests hands, to ENTER the TEMPLE. So where do they mix a tiny bit of the ash, after the Temple is built, to supposedly cleanse the Priests the Brazen Lavar is where they wash, probably daily.

OH, IT IS ALREADY BUILT.

I am quite sure that all of the utensils and implements are already acquired including the Red Heifer. I believe that the temple must be built on the same spot that the mosque on the Dome of the Rock now sits. After it is demolished, with modern pre-fab techniques, the temple could probably be constructed in less than a year. Of course, doing such a thing would probably start WW3. I believe that is covered in Revelation in regards to wars and rumors of wars. Once built and dedicated 3 1/2 years later comes the Abomination of Desolation by the anti-christ.

You really need to do some research and you need to watch many of the videos that Posted. David Build his TABERNACLE on the Ornan the Jebusite THRESHING FLOOR. The a large flat hill, preferably down to Bedrock and there is nothing flat on the supposed Temple Mount.

1 Chronicles 21:18-30 (ASV)
18 Then the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and rear an altar unto Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of Jehovah.
20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22 Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto Jehovah: for the full price shalt thou give it me, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
23 And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal-offering; I give it all.
24 And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost.
25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
26 And David built there an altar unto Jehovah, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.
27 And Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.
28 At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
29 For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.

2 Chronicles 3:1 (HCSB)
1 Then Solomon began to build the LORD’s temple in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah where the LORD had appeared to his father David, at the site David had prepared on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.


Mount Moriah was the NAME of the entire RIDGE that runs along the east side of Jerusalem and the CITY OF DAVID. The center Peak was Mount Zion, but in 132 AD, Prince Simon ordered it to be a Rock Quarry because the Romans had put a Temple to Jupiter on that very SITE, which Prince Simon said even the bedrock was defiled. The jews were exiled from the land in 136 AD, and they did not return for sever hundred years, and FORGOT THAT FACT, and only thought it was a single peak. In King David's day, Jerusalem was where his Places was, and the City of David was the nickname, and the location of King David's Palace was just south of OPHEL, and the hill to the north was Mount Zion, and that is where the Threshing Floor that David bought was.

Here is the topography of Mount Moriah highest Peak.

NO THRESHING FLOOR at the so-called Temple Mount, but about 700-800 feet south of that would have been the original Mount Zion.

I'm not entirely sure who is going to oversee the temple project. The Israeli government? If the site is known and is accessible what would be the impetus, from a biblical perspective, to get started with the construction? Perhaps it is the 7 year treaty that Israel signs with a party or government entity that guarantees their security.

They have an agency called the TEMPLE INSTITUTE.

They have remade all the Temple Vessels and musical instruments, and they Train the Priests, all of that comes from their website. A lot of the information I have posted comes from them, and a lot comes from the Archaeologists, in the dig in the Parking Lot. Some of it comes from the City of David officials. Mostly from the VIDEOS they have produced. The Temple Mount is the WRONG SITE, but maybe GOD wants the TEMPLE the Antichrist to be sitted on the WRONG LOCATION.

The walled City known as the temple mount was rebuilt by the Turks when they were in control of the City. But it was built upon the Ruins of Fortress Antonia, the home base of the Roman 10th Legion. That had approximately 6000 armed Soldiers, and 4000 support staff. The reason for so many support staff, was the Roman 10th Legion was NOT ALLOWED to purchase anything from the Jews. So every business the Soldiers would need, was available inside the Fortress.

Wikipedia:
During its long history, Jerusalem has been attacked 52 times, captured and recaptured 44 times, besieged 23 times, and destroyed twice. The oldest part of the city was settled in the 4th millennium BCE, making Jerusalem one of the oldest cities in the world.
. . .
In 1071, Jerusalem was captured by the Turkish warlord Atsiz ibn Uvaq, who seized most of Syria and Palestine as part of the expansion of the Seljuk Turks throughout the Middle East. As the Turks were staunch Sunnis, they were opposed not only to the Fatimids, but also to the numerous Shia Muslims, who saw themselves removed from dominance after a century of Fatimid rule. In 1176, riots between Sunnis and Shiites in Jerusalem led to a massacre of the latter. Although the Christians of the city were left unmolested, and allowed access to the Christian holy sites, the wars with Byzantium and the general instability in Syria impeded the arrival pilgrims from Europe. The Seljuks also forbade the repair of any church, despite the damages suffered in the recent turmoils. There does not appear to have been a significant Jewish community in the city at this time.
. . .
End Quote.

That fact that the Turks rebuilt the Walls was confirmed by an Official Tour Guide named Frannie.

On top of it all a topographical map of Mount Moriah's highest peak show the Ground had never been leveled to a THRESHING FLOOR, and the BIBLE says it was already a THRESHING FLOOR WHEN DAVID BOUGHT IT. See Post #2,010 .

1 Chronicles 21:20 (ASV)
20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

So the Threshing Floor would have looked like this:

1597263260345.png


That they had dug down to BEDROCK, and their is NO FLAT SURFACE on the Highest Hill on the Mount Moriah Ridge. But the next location about 800 feet to the south, on the OPHEL is the right type of terrain.

1597263626510.png
So you see the Big Farm House in this Picture, the TEMPLE would have been the field west of it near the Road. So it still looked like a Plowed Field until sometime after 1915.


Matthew 24:1-2 (HCSB)
1 As Jesus left and was going out of the temple complex, His disciples came up and called His attention to the temple buildings.
2 Then He replied to them, “Don’t you see all these things? I assure you: Not one stone will be left here on another that will not be thrown down!”

Jeremiah 26:18 (HCSB)
18 “Micah the Moreshite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah and said to all the people of Judah, ‘This is what the LORD of Hosts says: Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become ruins, and the temple mount a forested hill.’


Apparently their used to be a small grove of trees in that corner.

The Ancient Jerusalem had not even been Rebuilt, YET, when this Picture was taken in 1915. Ancient Jerusalem of the BIBLE is the City of DAVID, which was the Nickname. YET two Farm Houses and some out buildings that existed in 1915. Yet the Jews wanted to insist that it was Temple INSIDE the walled City, which is Fortress Antonia. Look at the field west of the Big House, that is where the TEMPLE USED TO SIT. The Palace of King David, was on the Next terrace level down from there. Why do the JEWS want to insist it was up on the Temple Mount? Most likely it is because of the WESTER WALL where they Pray, Making it unexceptable to consider a different location. So those RABBI's had voted it had to be on the highest Ground. There was 4 different places that they had to vote on, and by a small margain they chose the WRONG SITE, the so-called TEMPLE MOUNT, in the early 400's AD. THEN THEY GOT EXILED YET AGAIN.

So long after Solomon built the TEMPLE on Mount Moriah's Ridge, on the original peak known as Mount Zion, not the renamed peak of Mount Zion to the west. So the JEWS returned after being exiled for hundreds of YEARS, they had NO IDEA where everything was for real, so they GUESSED. And now some JEWS have discovered that ANCIENT JERUSALEM was for a very long time, a Plowed Field of Potatoes. Just about every building that was left was Built by Romans or Turks.

About a 150 years ago, Queen Victoria from England, sent Captain Charles Warren to Israel, the find treasures from the BIBLE, and what He found OUTSIDE THE CITY WALL was a tunnel and a shaft going up into the Ceiling that is know as the WARREN"S SHAFT.

1597259297968.png . 1597259342454.jpeg .



What he had FOUND was a naturally Siphon Spring, were if you block off the two lower Tunnel Exits, it will provide Spring Water into where the Temple used to sit on south end of the Ophel. See it Lower Left side of this picture.



E

This is mostly correct. Most was verified by Josephus the Historian. The Southeast Tower was the tallest so that Guard could see into the courtyards of the TEMPLE. And the Double Colonnades were 600 feet long. That flat piece on the middle of the Stairs, had 3 doorways to go under the Fortress Antonia, that was a STABLE. Courtyard of the Gentiles looks too small, and Josephus said when he stood in the East Gate of the TEMPLE, on Feast Days, he could see that Veil of the Holy of Holies. And the Height of the TEMPLE PLATFORM is too Tall.

I think that if they rebuild the temple they should only offer grain offerings and drink offerings and not animals any more
Because when Moses came down from the mountain and "Saw the calf" he was angered and broke the tablets
Through the lens of the new covenant this means animal sacrifice angers Jesus (hence his overthrowing the tables of those selling animals for sacrifice)
It's fine to have a temple rebuilt, but it should be purely fruit and grains that are offered there, ie the food of John the Baptist

I Agree, and I am sure when the TWO WITNESSES get here, that will be first thing the teach.

HERE IS A PROPHETIC VERSE that SEEMS to be the WILL OF THE LORD that the JEWS rebuild it.

Malachi 3:1-3 (HCSB)
1 “See, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. Then the Lord you seek will suddenly come to His temple, the Messenger of the covenant you desire—see, He is coming,” says the LORD of Hosts.
2 But who can endure the day of His coming? And who will be able to stand when He appears? For He will be like a refiner’s fire and like cleansing lye.
3 He will be like a refiner and purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver. Then they will present offerings to the LORD in righteousness.



That is the reason most Jews think it is time to REBUILD THE TEMPLE.

Can you see the expression on their faces, when they SEE WHO IS THE LORD?

This Video was posted Jul 30, 2020. This has nothing to do with the Third Temple, but it is a walk through of Jerusalem's so-called OLD CITY at NIGHT, and even Stopped at the WESTERN WALL, for a short Prayer. I was highly impressed, because almost every on takes it very serious about wearing the Covid-19 Masks. Yes, some of it got rather boring, but I found it interesting, because I have NEVER SEEN JERUSALEM AT NIGHT BEFORE. Yes, it was after all the shops were CLOSED for the night, AND he got lost at least 3 Times. It looks like most of the Orthodox Jews go to the Western Wall late night to pray.
