Peter Leitart comments in his Brazos commentary that Solomon and Jesus both entered Jerusalem, destined to have significant impact on the Temple,
“Solomon enters Jerusalem to be enthroned as the temple builder, While Jesus enters Jerusalem in order to reenact the Temple’s destruction”. (Bezos Commentary 1 and 2 Kings, Peter Leithart, page 32).


Could be the commentary is wrong?

Joh_2:19 “All right,” Jesus replied. “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
Joh_2:20 “What!” they exclaimed. “It has taken forty-six years to build this Temple, and You can rebuild it in three days?”
Joh_2:21 But when Jesus said “this temple,” He meant His own body.

1Co_3:16 Don’t you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you?
1Co_3:17 God will destroy anyone who destroys this temple. For God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple.
1Co_6:19 Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself,

I did a typo when quoting Leitart, I should have said “Pre enact”- Leinart was saying that the crucifixion of Jesus himself was a destruction of the temple and prefigured the destruction of the temple
