Bible Question (short): Whose temple was being built? |
Question (full): john 2.20 Jesus has just told them he'll destroy the temple in three days. They misunderstand him and question him on if it's taken them 46 years to build it - my question is who was building? I don't mean labour that's jews and/or their slaves. But rather who was sanctioning this and financing and was it a reconstruct or from scratch. Is this the same temple excavated by the rex dias in the 1100's AC |
