The Bible teaches that the Jewish people will rebuild the temple at the beginning of the seven-year tribulation. They will also reestablish a system of sacrifices and offerings (Daniel 9:27; Revelation 11:1–2). Key passages say this will happen in “the holy city” of Jerusalem (Daniel 9:24; Revelation 11:2). Later in the tribulation, the Antichrist will desecrate the new temple (Daniel 11:36–45; 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4). Jesus affirms the existence of a future temple by prophesying the same profane event that Daniel and 2 Thessalonians foretell (Matthew 24:15).
