Actually, Jesus took the Pharisees' misUSE of the temple, and re-focused it from the man-made temple being the key...to the divine temple Himself!
John 2: 19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” 20 They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” 21 But the temple he had spoken of was his body.
But the temple he had spoken of [in that particular case] was his body. At other times spanning the OT and the NT he was referring to His Father’s House or Dwelling.
What he was reorienting the remnant of Israel on was the importance of the living Messiah, not their dead practices in the temple which by their own actions, lack of authority and loss of knowledge they’d desecrated. They wanted to shut God’s mouth, but lacked the authority and power to do so.
The Christian expectation is in the least a steady state of apostasy. That’s the entire story of the Bible from start to finish. We live in a world of lost knowledge.
