Third Temple Update 2023

2023 saw only a few documented prophetic portents in regard to the Third Temple. Below are those events:

The Priestly Strategies
Exodus 28:4 – “These are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod.”
Exodus 29:6 – “You shall put the turban on his head, and put the holy crown on the turban.”
The Temple Institute has invested millions of dollars into recreating the utensils, garments, and tools needed for sacrifices, and has recently finished fabrication of the Ephod, Breastplate, and Golden Crown of the High Priest.
• In October, during the intermediate days of Sukkot, the Temple Institute’s Levitical Choir joined dozens of other musical Levites in a festive performance of Psalm 27. The performance took place on the steps leading up to the ancient Hulda Gates on the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount. This location is where thousands of worshippers ascended from the City of David to the Temple during the times of King David and Yeshua.

Red Heifer Efforts
Isaiah 2:2 – “In the days to come, the mount of Yahweh’s house shall stand firm above the mountains and tower above the hills; and all the nations shall gaze on it with joy and stream unto it.”
2023 has seen continued efforts to see the Tenth Red Heifer qualified.
• In September 2022, five red heifers were transported from Texas to Israel by Boneh Israel.
• In March 2023, the Temple Institute declared one of the red heifers disqualified for sacrifice.
• On July 17, 2023, another red heifer arrived in Israel at the Ancient Shiloh heritage site in Samaria’s Binyamin region where the biblical Tabernacle once stood. Hundreds of visitors flocked to Shiloh to welcome it.
• Two more heifers were transported to the town, and a center has been opened that is dedicated to researching the phenomenon. The heifers will be kept in a fenced-off area, and visitors will not be able to touch the animals. Binyamin Regional Council head Israel Ganz called the cow’s arrival a “historic moment,” saying “The Ancient Shiloh site is continuing to grow and develop, and the Red Heifer Center will attract more visitors, up to one million a year, from Israel and around the world.” Ganz called it “Good news for the Jewish world, for scientists and researchers, and for everyone.”
• A red heifer suitable for sacrifice is expected to be available by Pesach (Passover) in April of 2024.

Temple Mount Activities
• 50,098 Jews visited the Temple Mount in 2023 according to the Jerusalem-based Beyadenu organization.

Conclusions
The state of Israel is a fact and Jewish authorities are preparing to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. The appearance of the red heifers, the architectural plans, and the ability of the Jewish people to openly pray on the Temple Mount are all seen as prophetic implications that the time is ripe. All of the gold and silver utensils and the garments needed for Temple worship have either been recovered or remanufactured. Only the Ark of the Covenant awaits recovery. The Kohanim have been trained and the necessary altar site has been identified. Only the lack of a qualified red heifer prevents the Third Temple from being built and cleansed — but that may happen by Pesach (Passover) 2024.

If, . . . . and I say, if . . . . . one of these red heifers turns out to be THE tenth Parah Aduma, then the building of the Third Temple may be close at hand, even at the door. However, this will not usher in the arrival of the Jew’s long awaited Mashiach (Messiah). Instead, it will usher in an unprecedented time of agony, bloodshed, disaster, pandemics, wars, and death the likes of which this world has never seen. Yeshua says of this time: “For there will be great tribulation worse than there has ever been from the beginning of the world until now, and there will be nothing like it again! “ (Matthew 24:21). The Third Temple will allow the false messiah, the antichrist, to enter into the Holy of Holies and declare himself to be God.
