An article appeared in Israel National News on March 31, 2017, discussing whether animal sacrifices would be performed when Israel builds her Third Temple. Some Jews oppose the resumption of animal sacrifices, contending that the practice is barbaric and outdated. Others insist that sacrifices are mandated by God throughout the Torah and say they absolutely must be practiced when the Jewish temple is finally rebuilt on the Temple Mount.

The Bible prophesies the Antichrist will cause the sacrifices to stop; consequently, we can be sure that there will be sacrifices offered at the time of his reign.
