Changing of the temple

The changing of the temple

I want to talk for a moment on the changing of the temple.

John 11:49-52

But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, Ye know nothing nor consider that it is profitable for you that one man die for the people, and not that the whole nation perish. But this he did not say of himself; but, being high priest that year, prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation; and not for the nation only, but that he should also gather together into one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

Mark 14:63-Caiaphas tore his garment, And that was absolutely forbidden for a high priest to do…In fact, when a high priest rent his clothing, that meant that he was giving up his priesthood...

indicating that this priesthood was over- the changing of the temple

But in 597 and 586 B.C., the Babylonian Empire conquered the Israelites, and the Ark, at the time supposedly stored in the Temple in Jerusalem, vanished from history. At this time in history, the ark of the covenant was missing and the priests of this time would go into the holy of holies and pour blood into a hole instead of the ark of the covenant like they used to trying to keep up old traditions that God was moving past. The veil on that temple represented Gods garment.

The veil was torn in the temple when Jesus was crucified indicating that his priesthood was over- the changing of the temple of him to the church.
