Yes the second temple period is when thier covenant was defiled . And sacrifices were an abomination the time period between 100 years pre Malachi and the 300 plus years later when Jesus arrives at the temple To signify the giving of the new covenant .
“And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the Lord of hosts.
Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the Lord of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering:
for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible.
Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the Lord of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the Lord. But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing:
for I am a great King, saith the Lord of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen.”
Malachi 1:8, 10-14 KJV
the second temple is tricky in that God had told David that he would build David an house because he no longer dwelt in things made by men’s hands like the temple .
The second temple in Jerusalem became a point of cursing through the rejection of the messiah. Because they had already defiled so thoroughly the covenant made at Sinai with the children of Israel .
they began offering the worst they had the lawn and blind the spotted and flawed animals they gave God thier leftovers and looked at it as a hassle and a grievance to do so.
thier prophets had been prophecying lies to the people leading them astray calling it Gods word , thier priests defiled the priesthood The elders defiled the covenant they had worshipped false Gods again and again painted images of false gods inside the temple devoted to God.
the second temple
Period was then trying to force themselves on God after he had already declared the end of and breaking of thier cocenant which is wheee the term I ology whore comes from they repeatedly committed adultery with foreign gods . Which is the first commandment in their covenant .
God had told David a man made temple was useless because he had not dwelt in a man made house since delivering them from Egypt . When they rejected him and Moses interceded and then he placed his angel to go before them. And be with them in thier travels .
the real temple is in heaven. Where Christ made the sacrifice of the order of melchezideks priesthood before the mosaic law and after .
“The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.”
Psalms 11:4 KJV
the worldly sanctuary was only a pattern of the temple in heaven
“Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God. But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:”
Hebrews 9:1, 6-11, 23-24
We have a temple and a priesthood it’s just in the new Jerusalem in heaven
“And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.”
Revelation 21:2 KJV
