Since this is what popularized
all this
"Third Temple"
nonsense
in American Evangelical Circles
all those years ago.

~
Biblical Demonology Unger
Lets just go to source
and see what
ole boy
really
had to say about it:
1) (9:24) Daniel's prophecy of the seventy weeks (vv. 24-27) provides the chronological frame for Messianic prediction to the establishment of the kingdom on earth and also a key to its interpretation.
Its main features are as follows:
(1) The entire prophecy is concerned
primarily with Daniel's "people"
and their "holy city"-i.e. Israel and Jerusalem.
(2) Two princes are mentioned; the first is named "Messiah, the Prince" (v. 25); the second is described as "the prince that shall come" (v. 26), a reference to the "little horn" of ch. 7:8, whose "people" would destroy the rebuilt Jerusalem after the cutting off of the Messianic Prince (ν. 26).
(3) The "seventy weeks" of the prophecy are weeks of years, an important sabbatical time-measure in the Jewish calendar. Violation of the command to observe the sabbatical year brought the judgment of the Babylonian captivity and determined its length of seventy years. Cp. Lev. 25:1-22; 26:33-35; 2 Chr.36:19-21; Dan. 9:2. Compare also Gen.29:26-28 for use of "week" to indicate seven years.
(4) These 490 prophetic years are each 360 days long. This is proved by the Biblical references to the seventieth week of seven years, which is divided into two halves (v. 27), the latter half being variously designated as "a time, and times, and the dividing of time" (Dan. 7:25; cp. Rev.12:14);
(Gives us this prophecy in years.)
"forty-two months
(Rev.11:2; 13:5);"
(And Months)
"or 1260 days
(Rev.11:3; 12:6)."
(And days)
"In this connection a should be remembered that,
in the grand sweep of prophecy,
prophetic time is invariably so near
as to give full warning,
so indeterminate
as to give no satisfaction
to mere curiosity
(cp. MT 24:36; Acts 1:7).
(5) The beginning of the seventy weeks is fixed as "the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem" and its wall (v. 25).
The only decree in Scripture
authorizing the rebuilding of the city
and its wall is recorded in Neh.2;
(More important
than you might think.)
"dated in "the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king" (i.e. 445 B.C.), it is well attested in ancient history. From this date as a beginning, the first sixty-nine weeks reach to "the Messiah, the Prince."
(6) At a later time, "after the threescore and two weeks" which follow the first "seven weeks" (i.e. after sixty-nine weeks), two important events will take place:
(1) Messiah will be "cut off" and will have none of His regal rights ("but not for himself").
And
(2) the rebuilt city and sanctuary will again be destroyed, this time by "the people" of another "prince" who is yet to come. It is generally agreed that these two events were fulfilled in the death of Christ (A.D. 29) and the destruction of Jerusalem by Rome in A.D. 70.
(But it was
who destroyed the temple.)
"Both events are placed before the seventieth week of vs 27. Hence a period of at least forty-one years between the death of Christ and the destruction of Jerusalem must intervene between the sixty-ninth and seventieth weeks."
(7) The main events of the final
"one week" (v. 27) are as follows:
(1) There is a seven-year "covenant"
made by the future Roman prince
(the "little horn" of 7:8) with the Jews.
Syria–Israel Peace: A Regional Shift
The Times of Israel 3/03/26
"a seven-year "covenant"
Syria was once a Roman Providence:
"the future Roman prince"
"In other words, does the viewpoint...
demonstrate a proper method
of interpreting Scripture?...
Does it fit the facts of history?
~
Walvoord
(2) In the middle of the week there is a forcible interruption
of the Jewish ritual of worship by the Roman prince
who introduces "abominations"
that render the sanctuary "desolate."
(Already fulfilled under
of the Seleucid Empire
which contained
the modern day state of Syria
(Does your Anti-Christ
come from the same empire
that Antiochus IV Epiphanes
came from?)
(3) At the same time be launches
persecution against the Jews, And
(4) the end of the seventieth week
brings judgment upon the desolator
and also brings
"everlasting righteousness"
(v. 24-i.e.the blessings of
the Messianic kingdom).
"The proof that this final week has not yet been fulfilled seen in the fact that Christ definitely relates its main events to His second coming (MT 24:6,15)."
(Thais completely ignores the fact
they have already been fulfilled once
See Antiochus IV Epiphanes above.

BIBLICAL DEMONOLOGY AND ESCHATOLOGY
(Study of end time events) Chapter 12, part 3
THE DEMONOLOGY OF THE LAST DAYS
"Our neighbors bible:
Matthew 24:15
When ye therefore shall see
the abomination of desolation,
spoken of by Daniel the prophet,
stand in the holy place,
(whoso readeth,
let him understand:)
(Verse wasnt even written yet BTW.
Who but the author of history would know
to tell people when they read
what hasnt even been written yet.)
VER. 15.
The abomination of desolation.
In 1 Mach. 1:57 an application of the prophecy is found in the setting up by Antiochus Epiphanes of a statue of Jupiter Olympius in the temple of Jerusalem.
The prophecy will be fulfilled a second time
for Jerusalem
but not necessarily in the same way.
St. Luke sees "the abomination of desolation"
in the army which surrounded and destroyed Jerusalem. )
"Hence, during the interim between the sixty ninth and seventieth weeks there must be the whole period of the church set forth in the NT-But not revealed in the O.T."
"The age of Grace"
"A favor you did not deserve
and can not repay"
And as we are so obviously seeing
in our world today?
It comes to an end.)
Also demonstrated here in
This Chart
"The interpretation which assigns the last
of the seventy weeks to the end of the age
is found in the Church Fathers."
"When this seventieth week was referred to during the first two and one-half centuries of the Christian Church, it was almost always assigned to the end of the age. Irenaeus places the appearance of Antichrist at the end of the age in the last week in fact, the asserts that the time of Antichrist's tyranny will last just one-half of the week, three years and six months.
(The False Prophet gets
the first half of the tribulation period
The Anti Christ gets the second half,
"The Great Tribulation"
vs 12 And he exerciseth
all the power
of the first beast
before him,
"So likewise Hippolytus states that Daniel
"indicates the showing forth of the seven years
which shall be in the last times."
I believe:
"The only decree in Scripture
authorizing the rebuilding of the city and its wall is recorded in Neh.2; dated in "the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king" (i.e. 445 B.C.), it is well attested in ancient history. "
So if there is only one decree
and its already been built
and
MOSTLY
but not completely
tore down?
Where then are you getting
another decree to rebuild it?
It simply doesn't exist:
"The only decree in scripture"
Combined with:
Matthew 24:1-2
24 And Jesus went out,
and departed from the temple:
and his disciples came to him
for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Jesus said unto them,
See ye not all these things?
verily I say unto you,
There shall not be left here
one stone upon another,
that shall not be thrown down.
(That simply
hasn't been completed
yet:
And:
"And
(2) the rebuilt city
and sanctuary
will again be destroyed,
this time by
"the people"
of another
"prince"
who is yet to come.
It is generally agreed that these two events were fultilled
in the death of Christ (A.D. 29)
and the destruction of Jerusalem by Rome in A.D. 70.
But it was
who destroyed the temple.
So it refers to both:
Antiochus IV Epiphanes
AND
The Anti-Christ.
The first one points to what to expect
(foreshadows)
the next time around.
All Of This:
This way or that way
type of thinking
instead of
"Maybe they both
just work together"
Just drives me absolutely insane.
So...
They rebuilt it once.
It was MOSTLY tore down
just like prophecy said
it was going to be.
And Christ pretty much said:
(Implied anyway)
WHEN YOU SEE THIS WALL
(Wats left of the temple complex
a "WING")
COME DOWN?
KNOW IM ON MY WAY.
There is a war going on you know.
And Israel is getting hammered.
This time:
"the people"
of another
"prince"
who is yet to come.
(He is here)
are still
gonna be comin
from the same place
as last time
to Jerusalem
to finish the job.
Daniel 9:27
(NIV of all things)
He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’[a] In the middle of the ‘seven’[b] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple[c] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.[d]”[e]
a) Daniel 9:27 Or ‘week’
b) Daniel 9:27 Or ‘week’
c) Daniel 9:27
Septuagint and Theodotion;
Hebrew wing
d) Daniel 9:27
Or IT.

Interpreters Bible Exegesis Part 5
"Just gonna tray and pick out what I felt is the most relevant material to present, that supports the "Pseudo-Christ, The forth beast from the land, Antichrist (For there are many)" will be a Quantum Powered AI Digital Human.
"eyes LIKE A AMAN"
Daniel 11:30
30 For the ships of Chittim
shall come against him:
therefore
he shall be grieved,
and return,
and have indignation
against the holy covenant:
(The new one under Christ)
so shall he do;
he shall even return,

and have intelligence

the holy covenant.)
e) Daniel 9:27
Or:
And one who causes desolation
will come upon the wing
of the abominable temple,
(Abominable as Christ has already
put an end to sacrifice:
until the end that is decreed
is poured out
on the desolated city.
So some of our oldest text say:

Did I mention
there is currently an ISIS army
being assembled in
the Idlib providence of Syria?

It is not just the war with Iran...
(or "...till the times of the gentiles be fulfilled...")
What is happening to Syria’s IS camps
Guardian 2/16/26
"Since Damascus took over al-Hawl as part of its wresting of territory from the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) last month, the camp has slowly emptied. Smugglers, foreign fighters and family members have come to the camp each night to retrieve residents,
most of whom
were taken to Idlib,
a province in north-west Syria
where many former
Islamist fighters live."
Think they are gonna stay:
"Former" do ya
?????????
Interesting position.
This is the very same area
where the Turkish conscripts
that MOSTLY tore it down
the last time
came from.
Id say those are the guys
that are gonna be the ones
to finish the job
and there is simply no need
for a third temple.
"In other words, does the viewpoint...
demonstrate a proper method
of interpreting Scripture?...
Does it fit the facts of history?
~
Walvoord
"There shall not be left here
one stone upon another,
that shall not be thrown down"
So?
To all my evangelical Brothers and Sisters
who think a third temple in needed
to order for Christ return?
I Respectfully
contend:
