Luke 21:1 (NIV) “As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury.”
Matthew 24:2 (NIV) “Do you see these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone will be left on another, every one will be thrown down.”

This is the temple mount. The walls you see on the left side of this picture are NOT the temple walls but rather the retaining walls to support a flat place to construct the actual temple.

John 2:19 (NIV): Jesus answered and said unto them, destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
