During a recent White House press briefing, a Hasidic reporter asked Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt whether President Donald Trump plans to rebuild the Third Temple in Jerusalem. Leavitt responded that the President “does not have plans to do so at this time.” The question, while unexpected in a political setting, touched on one of the most prophetically charged subjects in Scripture — the future rebuilding of the Temple, a central event in end-times prophecy.

For students of Bible prophecy, the exchange underscores how deeply the topic of the Temple resonates even in modern political discourse. The Third Temple’s construction will mark a monumental prophetic milestone, paving the way for the fulfillment of Daniel 9 and Revelation 11. While the White House downplayed any such intentions, the fact that the question arose at all is a reminder that prophetic anticipation surrounding Jerusalem continues to stir hearts — and headlines — in these last days.
