The following are the five temples mentioned in the Word of God: Solomon’s Temple (1 Kings 8), was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar in the year 588 B.C. Zerubbabel’s Temple (Ezra 3:6) was pillaged and dedicated to the heathen god, Jupiter, by Antiochus Epiphanes, in the years 168 and 170 B.C. Herod’s Temple (John 2:20), reconstructed and rebuilt in a style of surpassing magnificence, commenced in the year 17 B.C. Antichrist’s Temple (2 Thessalonians 2:4) will be built by the Jews in unbelief when returned to their land (Isaiah 18). The “Antichrist” and the “Beast,” that is, the head of the revived Roman Empire, will establish idolatrous worship in it. Christ’s Millennial Temple (Ezekiel 40) will be entirely new, and not on the site of the old one. It will be grand and spacious, according to Divine plan and measurement, and the glory of Jehovah will fully occupy it.
