Post #495 Jerusalem History: The First and Second Temples
For the prophecies of the man of lawlessness / man of sin to be fulfilled, there must be a third temple rebuilt. So that the antichrist shall takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
No visitor to Jerusalem can escape hearing references to the First Temple and the Second Temple, which refer to historical time periods when two different massive Jewish temples stood. Both temples were destroyed.
The main remnant is the outer western wall of the Second Temple courtyard, known as the Wailing Wall.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
