Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Destruction / Perishing Language

The verse uses the word "destroy" but does not explicitly link it to the fate of the wicked. Instead, it refers to a temple and Jesus's ability to raise it up, which, in context, is later understood to refer to his own body and resurrection, not the perishing of the wicked.

Time-Bound Fulfillment

While a specific duration ("three days") is mentioned, the "raising up" is presented as a future action by Jesus himself, not a prophecy given to others that they are expected to recognize as fulfilled.
