Summary
597 years before Jesus Christ was born, Ezekiel was among those that were exiled, exiled away from the homeland, exiled away from Jerusalem and it was there in exile that Ezekiel became a prophet. And the glory of God then leaves the temple that leaves Jerusalem and Ezekiel sees the glory of the Lord resting on the mountain as it leaves and goes east. He is exiled here and he is prophesying and he's prophesying about the fall of Jerusalem and he says, the glory of the Lord is going to leave the temple and it's going to go east and it's going to rest on the Mount of all of us. Because the glory of God that had departed from the temple and gone east and rested on the 11th chapter of Mark, you have the glory of God on the Mount of all of us coming from the east and going where in the temple. After the vision, 20 years later, after that vision of which the glory of the Lord had departed the temple and gone east. So the vision of the temple in Zikil 43 isn't a vision of the temple for the people to rebuild 50 years later after Zikil 43, it couldn't be it.
