Predicted by Rabbi Yehudah Ben Shmuel some 300 years before it happened.
12TH-CENTURY RABBI PREDICTED ISRAELS FUTURE

His predictions were the following based on the status of Jerusalem and the Jubilees (50 year spans of time).
1. Jerusalem would be occupied by the Turks for eight Jubilees. The Turks did hold Jerusalem from 1517 to 1917.
2. Jerusalem would become ownerless for one Jubilee. This happened from 1917 to 1967.
3. Jerusalem would be in the hands of Jews again in the 9th Jubilee. This occurred in 1967 until current time (2016). This 9th Jubilee period would be the leading up to the End Times.
4. During the 10th Jubilee Jews would control Jerusalem and the End Times would begin. This should be right about 2017.

Daniel’s 70th week is coming soon.
When the Solomon’s Temple Foundation (pun) solicits donations, I will proudly donate. Having spent two years in Israel before with my family, I think the way the dome and destruction of the Wailing Wall earth works is a crime against mankind and God.
Given that semicha died ~1600 years ago, where does this Sanhedrin get its authority from? Also, aren’t there very stringent requirements on who can be a priest? How do you know if someone is actually descended from Aaron and or Levi?
Unless G-d has made very clear notification that it is time to build the third Temple, these people are wasting their time and may actually incur His Wrath. Remember Aaron’s sons coming unbidden to the Holy of Holies. They were killed by G-d. I view this article as Messyonic “jew” propaganda crap. I am paying it no further attention.
The true Third Temple has already been built. Jesus fulfilled the prophecy and is, Himself, the Third Temple.
(Not sure if this thread is the best place to say this, but I also wanted to thank you for the "Hebrew language" learning resources recommendations you gave me some time ago, as well as the other books & websites you recommended, such as the ones for the prominent Torah scholars, those for the Noahide movement, etc. Still reading and studying lots of those resources, and they are very interesting and educational.)
In twenty years they are still unable to get the project off the ground
this same article could have been written verbatim in 1995
