“Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?”
John 2:20 (KJV)
Commentary on John 2:20
The Jews misunderstand, thinking Jesus speaks of Herod's temple: 'Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?' Their literalism blinds them to spiritual meaning. The temple construction, begun under Herod the Great around 20 BC, was ongoing. The Jews' incredulity is understandable but reveals spiritual dullness—they cannot conceive of anything beyond the physical.
