There is speculation that the temple mount has been misidentified. Some say that the mosque of Omar is built upon Herod’s fortress – that the temple was completely destroyed as Jesus said it was and was located in the city of David – south of the fortress. Some recent archaeological finds give some credence to this view. I’m definitely going to do some studying on this.
