Location
1. The Temple Mount is located on the eastern side of Old City Jerusalem
2. It occupies 1/6 of the current city.
3. It is 35 acres (14 hectares) in size, the equivalent of 35 football fields.
Historical Background
1. The Temple Mount has played a “center stage” role for much of Israel’s history and has functioned as the center of God’s dwelling place and ministry on this earth.
2. It will play a key part during the Millennial Reign of Christ on the earth as well.
3. God has chosen to focus His presence and attention there like a laser beam from heaven like no other place.
4. First temple: the temple Solomon built.
5. Second temple: the temple Ezra oversaw after the deportation and return of the Jews.
6. King Herod’s temple: it would seem like this would be called the third temple, but because the second temple of Ezra wasn’t destroyed by enemies, but that Herod built over it a new temple, and then removed the old one inside, it is still referred to as the second temple.
