Destroy this temple

The Jews mock Jesus for saying that He could destroy the temple in three days.

In fact, it hardly takes Him that long.  Three hours is enough.  Darkness falls, and three hours later Jesus speaks twice in a thunderous voice, and the veil of the temple tears.  That’s the end of the temple, since there’s no use for temples without doors and boundaries to keep people out.
