Prophecy states the temple will be rebuilt...I have never found a direct scripture quote that says it will be rebuilt exactly where the other temples were built... the Bible says the temple will be rebuilt...period! On the other hand I have no strong belief about where it would be rebuilt other then close proximity on or near the temple mount. The protesting Orthodox rabinnical students who had studied the matter seemed to think that the temple could be built right there at the wailing wall and still meet scriptural stipulations! So go argue with them. As for me, what I believe, on top of the Mosque or in close proximity...the temple will be rebuilt as the Bible says. The Bible doesn’t even say this was a desirable thing in God’s eyes as since the sacrifice of animals is resumed, this represents the ultimate refusal of many Jews to accept as the final sacrifice, Jesus our Lord. They show that they would rather accept the Mosaic law and smoky gloom of Mount Sinai as opposed to the grace and forgiveness found at Mount Zion as Hebrews explains.
Nice way of putting it. Daniel says on Temple mount. There could always be an earthquake. Lots of that going around these days. Once the mosque is leveled then all bets are off and Israel can do whatever it wants there. If the Muslims yell, so, let them.
