Capac Bible Church in St Clair County Michigan https://capacbible.org presents a biblical study on the Prophet Ezekiel's temple vision, presented by guest lecturer Pastor Jory Steven Brooks. In the last nine chapters of his book, the prophet gives an elaborate vision of a restored land and temple. This vision is often referred to as “Ezekiel’s Millennial Temple in Jerusalem.” Yet there are at least four major errors in that short popular phrase. Firstly, the Temple was not located in “the city,” Secondly, the location of the city was not Jerusalem, thirdly, it was not millennial! Fourthly, there is no physical temple in the New Jerusalem of the millennial state. This will all be demonstrated with reference to Scripture and Biblical scholarship.
It is an interesting fact that in all nine chapters of Ezekiel’s vision there is never any mention of the word, “Jerusalem.” This is all the more surprising because it seems that everyone calls it “the Jerusalem Temple.” Instead, it is referred to again and again a dozen times vaguely as “the city,” and ten times in chapter 48 alone. It is not until the very last verse in the Book of Ezekiel, chapter 48 verse 35, that he finally gives us the name of “the city,” and it is NOT Jerusalem! He says, “…the name of the city…shall be, The LORD is there,” in Hebrew, “Jehovah Shammah,” and the plain fact is that it is not Jerusalem, nor is it located at the site of the old Jerusalem! Join with us in this interesting study as we set the record straight on one of the Bible's most misunderstood prophecies.
