"possibly rear up the tabernacle before building the third temple?"


Could the tabernacle be erected again, first, in Israel, before they build the third temple?
It wouldn't have be on the temple mount, then.
Are there those in Israel who give any credence to the "apocryphal" book of II Maccabees.
If so, in that "apocryphal" book, which is NOT inspired scripture, it is mentioned that Jeremiah hid the tabernacle and the ark:

II Maccabees 2:4 It was also contained in the same writing, that the prophet, being warned of God, commanded the tabernacle and the ark to go with him, as he went forth into the mountain, where Moses climbed up, and saw the heritage of God.

  5 And when Jeremy came thither, he found an hollow cave, wherein he laid the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.

  6 And some of those that followed him came to mark the way, but they could not find it.

  7 Which when Jeremy perceived, he blamed them, saying, As for that place, it shall be unknown until the time that God gather his people again together, and receive them unto mercy.


If they give credence to that "apocryphal" book, and if these things are found in that cave, could they then rear up the tabernacle, first, with the ark, before building the 3rd temple?
Of course all animal sacrifices at that point would be in defiance and rejection of the blood of the Lamb of God.
