Later in Ezekiel's life he has a grand vision, the longest of any in his book. In his vision he sees someone who appears to be Christ, with a measuring reed in his hand, and they set out to explore the land and what seems to be a third temple.... except, the second temple wasn't build yet. What do we make of this visionary temple? There are many theories, and starting with this chapter and the 8 that follow it, we will explore these ideas.
