The Third Temple in Jerusalem and the Millennial Temple on Mount Zion

The first temple in Jerusalem was built on Mount Moriah,

Then Solomon began to build the temple of the Master in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Master had appeared to his father David. It was on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, the place provided by David.

2 Chronicles 3:1

Which is where the second temple was constructed, on the ruins of the first temple,

and he told him, ‘Take these articles and go and deposit them in the temple in Jerusalem. And rebuild the house of God on its site.‘ “So this Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundations of the house of God in Jerusalem. From that day to the present it has been under construction but is not yet finished.”

Ezra 5:15-16

And a third temple will be constructed on the site of the first and second temple, on Mount Moriah, as revealed by this vision in the book of Revelation, which may or may not look the same as the previous temples, for the Temple Institute in Jerusalem already has designs and plans drawn out for this new temple that look different than the previous temples,

I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, with its worshipers.

Revelation 11:1

Yet the outer court of this temple is excluded in the vision, because it is given to the Gentiles, meaning it will be given to the Muslims,

But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles…

Revelation 11:2

Because they are the ones who now descend from those who trampled the set-apart city for a period of 42 prophetic months, which symbolizes around 1,260 literal years,

…They will trample on the set-apart city for 42 months.

Revelation 11:2

Which can be measured from around 1948 AD, around when Israel fought for Jerusalem and began to regain control of the set-apart city, and then all the way back to the beginning of the timeline to around 688 AD, which is when those who trampled the set-apart city began to build a structure around 687 AD on Mount Moriah that still stands today, the Dome of the Rock, which is one instance of an “abomination of desolation” that was set up on the temple ground to profane it, which was prophesied to appear in another timeline in scripture, the 1,290 prophetic days symbolizing 1,290 literal years from one instance sacrifices stopped in the temple, which was when the first temple was destroyed by the Babylonians, which was around 601 BC, and beginning the timeline from 600 BC to around 691 AD is 1,290 literal years to when the construction of the Dome of the Rock was completed,

Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. He did what was evil in the sight of the Master his God. He did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke from the mouth of the Master… the Master, the God of their fathers, sent persistently to them by his messengers, because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place. But they kept mocking the messengers of God, despising his words and scoffing at his prophets, until the wrath of the Master rose against his people, until there was no remedy. Therefore he brought up against them the king of the Babylonians, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or aged. He gave them all into his hand. And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the Master, and the treasures of the king and of his princes, all these he brought to Babylon. And they burned the house of God and broke down the wall of Jerusalem and burned all its palaces with fire and destroyed all its precious vessels.

2 Chronicles 36:11-19

From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days.

Daniel 12:11

687 AD. Abd al-Malik orders the erection of the Dome of the Rock.

And because the outer court of the temple is excluded may also mean that the Al-Aqsa Mosque may remain, belonging to the Palestinians, and the Dome of the Rock may also remain, also belonging to them, and in this way the new temple may be built next to these two buildings, or it is also possible that the Dome of the Rock will be destroyed, and maybe also the Al-Aqsa mosque will be destroyed, and then the new temple may be reconstructed after one or two of these buildings are destroyed, which remains a mystery, for we do not know for certain how exactly the new temple will be reconstructed, but we know that it will be, yet what is most possible that will happen is that the Dome of the Rock will indeed be destroyed so that the temple may be built on top of it, while the Al-Aqsa mosque may indeed remain, for the Dome of the Rock does indeed seem to be constructed in the center of the temple mount when looking at aerial views of the temple mount, and the only true way to reconstruct the temple is to rebuild it exactly where it was the previous two times, which implies removing what truly does not belong there, the Dome of the Rock, an abomination of desolation,

And this new temple will be the place where the Messiah will rule from at his second coming, in Jerusalem,

Then the moon will be abashed and the sun ashamed, For the Master of armies will rule… in Jerusalem, And His glory will be before His elders.

Isaiah 24:23

Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Master whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold, he is coming, says the Master of hosts. But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap.

Malachi 3:1-2

Yet this will not be the temple Ezekiel saw in a vision, which will be constructed on a tall mountain,

In visions of God he took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain… He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze; he was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand. The man said to me, “Son of man, look carefully and listen closely and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Tell the people of Israel everything you see.” I saw a wall completely surrounding the temple area. The length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits, each of which was a cubit and a handbreadth. He measured the wall; it was one measuring rod thick and one rod high.

Ezekiel 40:2-5

But another temple, that will be constructed under the one thousand year rulership of the Messiah,

It is he who shall build the temple of the Master and shall bear royal honor, and shall sit and rule on his throne, and shall also be priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

Zechariah 6:13

I will make a covenant of peace with them. It shall be an aeonial covenant with them. And I will set them in their land and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in their midst aeonially.

Ezekiel 37:26

Which will be built on a mountain that will form at his second coming, which will become the tallest of all mountains on the earth,

It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the house of the Master shall be established as the highest of the mountains, and shall be lifted up above the hills; and all the nations shall flow to it, and many peoples shall come, and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Master, to the house of the God of Jacob, that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the word of the Master from Jerusalem.

Isaiah 2:2-3

It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the house of the Master shall be established as the highest of the mountains, and it shall be lifted up above the hills; and peoples shall flow to it, and many nations shall come, and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Master, to the house of the God of Jacob, that he may teach us his ways and that we may walk in his paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the word of the Master from Jerusalem.

Micah 4:1-2

Which will be “Mount Zion”, which will also flow with lava towards the north to Jerusalem, to form as a lake of lava in the Valley of Hinnom, which is Gehenna, and will also flow with lava towards the south, to Negev,

Son of man, set your face toward the south; preach against the south, and prophesy against the forest land in the Negev. Say to the forest of the Negev, Hear the word of the Master: Thus says the Master the Master, Behold, I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every green tree in you and every dry tree. The blazing flame shall not be quenched… All flesh shall see that I the Master have kindled it; it shall not be quenched. 

Ezekiel 20:46-48

…declares the Master, whose fire is in Zion, and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

Isaiah 31:9

…The blazing flame shall not be quenched, and all surfaces from south to north shall be scorched by it. All flesh shall see that I the Master have kindled it; it shall not be quenched. 

Ezekiel 20:47-48

And they will go out and look on the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me; the worms that eat them will not die, the fire that burns them will not be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.

Isaiah 66:24

And if your eye should cause you to stumble, cast it out; it is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes, to be cast into Gehenna, where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.’

Mark 9:47-48

• 

And Mount Zion will be the second place the Messiah will rule from, in the temple Ezekiel saw in a vision on that mountain, the millennial temple,

Then the moon will be abashed and the sun ashamed, For the Master of armies will rule on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, And His glory will be before His elders.

Isaiah 24:23

Thus says the Master: I have returned to Zion and will dwell in Jerusalem. Then Jerusalem will be called the City of Truth and the mountain of the Master of armies, the set-apart mountain.

Zechariah 8:3

“In that day,” declares the Master, “I will gather the lame; I will assemble the exiles and those I have brought to grief. I will make the lame my remnant, those driven away a strong nation. the Master will rule over them in Mount Zion from that day and aeonially.

Micah 4:6-7

On this mountain the Master Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine– the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; he will swallow up death… The Master the Master will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth. the Master has spoken. In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the Master, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.” The hand of the Master will rest on this mountain; but Moab will be trampled in their land as straw is trampled down in the manure.

Isaiah 25:6-10

the Master swore an oath to David, a sure oath he will not revoke: One of your own descendants I will place on your throne. If your sons keep my covenant and the statutes I teach them always, then their sons will sit on your throne always. For the Master has chosen Zion, he has desired it for his dwelling, saying, “This is my resting place always; here I will always sit enthroned, for I have desired it. I will bless her with abundant provisions; her poor I will satisfy with food. I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her faithful people will ever sing for joy. “Here I will make a horn grow for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one. I will clothe his enemies with shame, but his head will be adorned with a radiant crown.”

Psalm 132:11-18

A song of ascents. Of David. How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Master bestows his blessing, even aeonial life.

Psalm 133:1-3

Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come from Zion! When the Master restores the fortunes of His people, Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad.  

Psalm 14:7

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

Psalm 53:6

“Then you will know that I, the Master your God, dwell in Zion, my set-apart mountain. Jerusalem will be set-apart; never again will foreigners invade her.

Joel 3:17

Then the Master will create over all of Mount Zion and over those who assemble there a cloud of smoke by day and a glow of flaming fire by night; over everything the glory will be a canopy. It will be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge and hiding place from the storm and rain.

Isaiah 4:5-6

What will one answer the messengers of the nation? “the Master has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people find refuge.”

Isaiah 14:32

In the last days the mountain of the Master’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Master, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Master from Jerusalem.

Isaiah 2:2-3

In the last days the mountain of the Master’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and peoples will stream to it. 

Micah 4:1

A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. Great is the Master, and most worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his set-apart mountain. Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, like the remote parts of the north is Mount Zion, the city of the Great King. God is in her citadels; he has shown himself to be her fortress…. Mount Zion rejoices, the villages of Judah are glad because of your judgments. Walk about Zion, go around her, count her towers, consider well her ramparts, view her citadels, that you may tell of them to the next generation.

Psalm 48:1-13

And I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Master of armies. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, declares the Master of armies. The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, says the Master of armies. And in this place I will give peace, declares the Master of armies.

Haggai 2:7-9

You will arise and have pity on Zion; it is the time to favor her; the appointed time has come. For your servants hold her stones dear and have pity on her dust. Nations will fear the name of the Master, and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory. For the Master builds up Zion; he appears in his glory; 

Psalm 102:13-16

But the Master reigns aeonially. He has prepared his throne for judgment. He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness. the Master will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, the Master, have not forsaken those who seek you. Sing praises to the Master, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.

Psalm 9:7-11

Yet have I set my king upon my set-apart mountain of Zion.

Psalm 2:6

Awake, awake, Zion, clothe yourself with strength…

Isaiah 52:1

From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth. Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him… 

Psalm 50:2-3

…who shall dwell in your set-apart mountain? He who walks is perfect and does what is righteous and speaks truth in his heart

Psalm 15:1

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Master has risen upon you. For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Master will arise upon you, and his glory will be seen upon you. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising… Foreigners shall build up your walls, and their kings shall minister to you; for in my wrath I struck you, but in my favor I have had mercy on you. Your gates shall be open continually; day and night they shall not be shut, that people may bring to you the wealth of the nations, with their kings led in procession. For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; those nations shall be utterly laid waste. The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress, the plane, and the pine, to beautify the place of my set-apart place, and I will make the place of my feet glorious. The sons of those who afflicted you shall come bending low to you, and all who despised you shall bow down at your feet; they shall call you the City of the Master the Zion of the Set-Apart One of Israel. 

Isaiah 60:1-14

For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch. The nations shall see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the Master will give… Behold, the Master has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, “Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.” And they shall be called The Set-Apart People, The Purchased of the Master; and you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken. 

Isaiah 62:1-12

But you have come to Mount Zion, and the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels,

Hebrews 12:22

Which is a mountain that will not only flow with lava to the north and to the south, but also with a river of water that will flow to the east, to the Dead Sea,

Then he brought me back to the door of the temple, and behold, water was issuing from below the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the temple faced east. The water was flowing down from below the south end of the threshold of the temple, south of the altar. Then he brought me out by way of the north gate and led me around on the outside to the outer gate that faces toward the east; and behold, the water was trickling out on the south side. Going on eastward with a measuring line in his hand, the man measured a thousand cubits, and then led me through the water, and it was ankle-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was knee-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was waist-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the water had risen. It was deep enough to swim in, a river that could not be passed through. And he said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he led me back to the bank of the river. As I went back, I saw on the bank of the river very many trees on the one side and on the other. And he said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Dead Sea, and enters the sea; when the water flows into the sea, the water will become fresh. And wherever the river goes, every living creature that swarms will live, and there will be very many fish. For this water goes there, that the waters of the sea may become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes. Fishermen will stand beside the sea. From En-Gedi to En-Eglaim it will be a place for the spreading of nets. Its fish will be of very many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea. But its swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they are to be left for salt. And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither, nor their fruit fail, but they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the set-apart place. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for healing.”

Ezekiel 47:1-12

In which case, another timeline is given in the book of Daniel, which is 2,300 prophetic days, which is 2,300 literal years, for “evening and mornings” are each one day, as it is written in Genesis, “and there was evening and morning” a day,

Then I heard a set-apart one speaking, and another set-apart one said to the one who spoke, “For how long is the vision concerning the continual ascending offering, the transgression that makes desolate, and the giving over of the set-apart place and host to be trampled underfoot?” And he said to me, “For 2,300 evenings and mornings. Then the set-apart place shall be restored to its rightful state.”

Daniel 8:13-14

God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

Genesis 1:5

Which is a timeline that begins with the transgression that causes desolation, from the time Yeshua was anointed on the earth in 26 AD, which was 4,000 years from the beginning of creation. Because the “transgression” was the Jews rejecting Yeshua as the promised anointed one and the “desolation” was the subsequent destruction of Jerusalem and the temple because of their rejection of Yeshua. And it was the Romans that carried out the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple. The Roman emperors are the “little horn” of Daniel.

And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, “Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem you in on every side and tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation.”

Luke 19:41-44

As I was considering, behold, a male goat came from the west across the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground. And the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes. He came to the ram with the two horns, which I had seen standing on the bank of the canal, and he ran at him in his powerful wrath. I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged against him and struck the ram and broke his two horns. And the ram had no power to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground and trampled on him. And there was no one who could rescue the ram from his power. Then the goat became exceedingly great, but when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and instead of it there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four airflows of heaven.

Daniel 8:5-8

And the goat is the king of Greece. And the great horn between his eyes is the first king. As for the horn that was broken, in place of which four others arose, four kingdoms shall arise from his nation, but not with his power.

Daniel 8:21-22

Out of one of them came a little horn, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the glorious land… And the continual ascending offering was taken away by him and the set-apart place was cast down. And an army was given to him against the continual ascending offering because of the transgressions, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and he did all this, and prospered. 

Daniel 8:9-12

The male goat is the king of Greece, and the large horn between its eyes is the first king. The horn that was broken and in whose place there arose four others stands for four kingdoms that will arise from his nation, though they will not have his strength. Toward the end of their rule, when rebellious acts are complete, a rash and deceitful king will arise. His power will be great, but it will not be by his strength alone. He will cause terrible destruction. He will be successful in what he undertakes. He will destroy powerful people and the people of the set-apart ones. By his treachery he will succeed through deceit. He will have an arrogant attitude, and he will destroy many who are unaware of his schemes… 

Daniel 8:21-25

Which then goes to around 2326 AD, which is around 6300 YB, which is around 300 years after the expected second coming of the Messiah in the year 2026 AD, which is around 6000 YB, in accordance to the correct calculation of the age of the earth since creation, which I explain in another bible study titled “What Year the Second Coming Will Be, the Millennial Shabbath of the Year 6000 YB, Yovels, and the 1290+1335 Days of Daniel“, and thus, around 3 generations of around 300 years will pass before the temple of Ezekiel is built in Mount Zion after the second coming, which will be a temple that will stand for around 700 years until the one thousand year the rulership of the Messiah is completed, and then, after this heaven and earth passes away, along with this temple on Mount Zion, there will not be a temple in the New Jerusalem in the new heaven and new earth, for God and the Messiah will be the temple of this city,

And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Master God the Almighty and the Lamb.

Revelation 21:22
