 The Upper Room

General discussion for Christianity.SE, pseudo-meta support, a...
having some discussion in the upper room
@Daniel would you like to join and explain about the temple?
 
3:18 PM
@Ali Explain what about the temple?
 
Ali
Did anyone \Jesus attempt to rebbuild the temple?
@Daniel
 
@Ali He didn't have to
The Temple was still standing during Jesus's life
 
Ali
Ya but it was not like at the time of Solomon?
 
@Ali It was the second Temple
 
Ali
Jesus even barged into the temple
 
3:21 PM
Solomon's Temple had been destroyed 600 years earlier
@Ali I have no idea about what Jesus did with respect to the Temple. I don't follow Jesus
But it wouldn't have made sense for him to try to rebuild it, because it was still standing
It wasn't destroyed until year 70
 
Ali
Had it not become like a market place at the time of Jesus?
 
@Ali Maybe Christians think that
I am unaware of any such thing
there was certainly corruption in the priesthood
And many of the Jews had turned to Hellenism
During the time of Antiochus, the Temple was desecrated
but that was a couple of centuries before Jesus
And the Maccabees rededicated it after recapturing it
The later Hasmonean rulers were corupt
