Could he build the temple back up in 3 days? He did. The temple Jesus was referring to was his life which he laid down at Calvary and took back up 3 days later !!!

Like many other passages it has to be read as analogy. When he rose on the third day the news flashed throughout the known world. It was big news. They didn’t have Internet or commsats, but everybody that wanted to know knew within a week.

He could have and did. He was speaking of his body.

BTW and yes, even if he had meant the literal Temple in Jerusalem, he could have.

He could have built it back up in three picoseconds ... or even in no span of time at all.

He's God.
