The Third Temple (Hebrew: בית המקדש השלישי,
Beit haMikdash haShlishi) is used in reference to a hypothetical rebuilt third Temple in Jerusalem, which would succeed both the original Solomon's Temple (built under Solomon of the United Kingdom of Israel and destroyed in 587 BCE by the Neo-Babylonian Empire) as well as the Second Temple (built under the Achaemenid Persian Empire and destroyed in 70 CE by the Roman Empire). Although it remains unbuilt, the notion of and desire for a Third Temple in Jerusalem is sacred in Judaism, particularly Orthodox Judaism, and is anticipated as the most sacred place of worship for Jews. The prophets in the Hebrew Bible called for its construction to be fulfilled prior to, or in tandem with, the Messianic Age. The rebuilding of a Third Temple also plays a major role in some interpretations of Christian eschatology.
