I’m curious The first and second temples didn’t have to wait for to descend from Heaven. G-d gave instruction and his people did the constructing. Is there any explanation given for the idea that the third temple will arrive all pre- assembled from Heaven? Has G-d joined the Mason’s Union all of a sudden? This sounds more like the quite- natural dreams and a way of keeping the flame , hope alive by people both dispossessed and powerless to act Now that G-d has seen fit to honor His promises at least to the extent of restoring a major part of His people to their Promised Land, why would He not continue via the same building methods He’s always used — the human hands of the faithful ? Just asking, not arguing. The only way I learn is to ask. Is there any explanation ? I realize His ways are not our ways and that we cannot expect to understand everything He does, but asking questions is still acceptable so - I respectfully ask. Thank you very much
well perhaps he has been growing the chrystals for the temple base for millenia, and he has the heavenly host to build at His direction, or perhaps he speaks it into being as well..
I find it interesting that the present temple is called temple mount..like the first temple was the base for the New Jerusalem/The Chrystal City..
G_d will tell us one day..
It is an abomination.
So...are they going to tear down the muzzie latrine on the site?
Way I read it, Jew’s build third temple. When the millennium rule of Messiah begins heavenly Jerusalem joins earthly Jerusalem and the final temple comes with it, built by God.
I expect it to be nothing like the temples built by human hands, but God being the temple and us His living stones.
I thought I had the tractate and page where the discussion takes place, but misremembered. Will be back Saturday night Jerusalem Time with a summary of the discussion and proper references. Thanks for your patience.
