The Apostle writes:

“By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise; for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God” (Heb. 11:9-10).

Rather than a city without foundations, which is the corrupt world (not earth) we live in that will be destroyed. Abraham knew there was no future in the current condition, so he looked towards the day when all would be immortal and righteous

Okay, His temple are those of faith here on earth, each individual is a stone being built throughout time.
I disagree.. the physical land has no significance just like the temple is no longer.
I think this is the most consistent view.
Will leave it there
 
The Lord is coming back. It's been two days, tomorrow is the third day. A day with the Lord is as 1000 years. It's everywhere in scripture. See my signature.

Exodus 19:10-11
10 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes,
11 And be ready against the third day: for the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.

Luke 13:32
32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
 
This is prophecy.... There TWO sets of 'Jews' in this passage, the remnant and the unbelievers ('Jews' called 'Ministers of our God'). When He returns, we'll ALL be there. All Israel shall be saved. That's God's Israel, not man's.

Isaiah 61
King James Version
1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.
4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6 But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
7 For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
8 For I the Lord love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed.
10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

That's what I believe is their destiny. All from Adam to the last living stone to be placed in the temple.

So you think there are two separate destinies, when you say "their" one for the Jew and one for the Gentile, or is "their" all believers living in Israel?
Who inhabits the rest of Earth?
 
There is one body, the OT remnant and those grafted in from the NT.

Ephesians 4:5-6​

5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
