Welcome to Prophecy Q & A with Jimmy DeYoung!
In Ezekiel 40-46, this will be the Temple that is on the scene in the Millennial Kingdom. It will be the Temple that is moved into eternity future as well. It will be lifted up by Christ.
Follow-up question … why will there be a New Earth if we will be in the New Jerusalem?
We will have a New Earth because the Lord, in the Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 15) and the Land Covenant (Deuteronomy 30) says that He is going to give a piece of real estate to the Jewish people forever, not just during the Millennial Kingdom. In order for Him to keep that promise forever, He has to make a New Earth, and the Temple has to be on that earth forever (Ezekiel 37:26-28 “I will have my sanctuary among my people forever.”). All the covenants are forever covenants, fulfilled in the kingdom but applicable throughout eternity future. The Jews have a piece of real estate, and they will have to have an earth to have the piece of real estate on.
