WorldNetDaily: Revived Sanhedrin discusses Temple

This according to Hal Lindsey, who has been steadily rebuilding his reputation since The Late Great Planet Earth and similar works arguably damaged it, because of his ill-advised date-setting.

Since that debacle, Lindsey has been sensibly confining his remarks to watching current signs. And now he is commenting on two particular signs that have occurred recently.

The first of these is the re-establishment, after about 1580 years, of the grand Jewish council known as the Sanhedrin, of which the world has heard nothing since 425 AD. Right now, according to Arutz-7, all they started out with is a committee of the whole--but they now seem to have seventy-one members, which constitutes the legal membership of the Sanhedrin: one High Priest and seventy advisers.

More recently, we saw members of this new Sanhedrin climbing the Temple Mount. And more recently, according to Lindsey, the Sanhedrin are now seeking to determine the exact location of the ancient Temple, with a view to rebuilding it.

But what about the Dome of the Rock, you ask? If Lindsey's own research and observation are correct, then the inner court of the Temple can sit right next to the Dome of the Rock without disturbing it in any way, or even touching it. And only the inner court need be built. Revelation 11:1-2 specifically says that the outer court is "given to the nations."

Don't expect two men dressed in burlap to appear any time soon, however--not until many more events take place. But those events might not be so far in coming as we might think!
