Wilderness wandering’s Tabernacle.
The Temple has been built twice. The First Temple was built in the 10th century B.C.E. by King Solomon, according to the Hebrew Bible (1 Kings 5-9).
The second Temple occurred when Cyrus the Great (Ezra 5:13-17,6:3,14) allowed the Jews to return to the Land of Israel, beginning in 538 B.C.E. A rebuilt Temple was dedicated in 515 B.C.E. – a little-known precursor to the grand structure called Herod’s Temple. It was an expanded and significantly upgraded structure whose construction was led by the half-Jewish, Herod, the Roman-appointed king of Judea who died in 4 B.C.E. Finished in about 20 B.C.E. It was leveled by Titus in 70 B.C.E.
The Jewish nation has been without a Temple and Temple worship (including Animal Sacrifice) since then. Their desire is to (re)built the Temple so their complete Temple worship, according to the Law can resume. According to Daniel 9:27,12:11 the Temple will have to be rebuilt (Matthew 24:15), probably at the beginning of the Tribulation, as the “prince that will come” will cause Temple worship to cease in the middle of JACOB’S TROUBLE. (Jeremiah 30:7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it).
