Ezra did not rebuild the temple in Jerusalem. It was Zerubbabel that rebuilt the temple after the Babylonian captivity. Ezra went to restore the spiritual life of the nation Israel. The rebuilding of the temple was completed in 516 B.C. and Nehemiah did not return to Jerusalem until 458 B.C. There is a 58 year gap between the end of Ezra chapter 6 and the beginning of Ezra chapter 7. So the temple was finished and in use for 58 years before Ezra came on the scene in Jerusalem.

How long did it take Solomon to build temple?
7 years
Was there a temple before Solomon built one?
A:Jerusalem already existed before the arrival of the Hebrews, so there would certainly have been a temple there, long before the time of Solomon. Scholars have even compared the description of King Solomon's Temple with the Canaanite temples found elsewhere, and say that Solomon's Temple appears to have been identical to traditional Canaanite temples. In fact, they say, it is possible that Solomon did not so much build a new temple as repair or improve an existing one.
Why might Solomon have built only one temple?
King David was told to not build it, but to have his son build it. His son was Solomon. Answer 2 The above Answer does not address the Question. The answer is that the Temple was a huge undertaking, requiring years of effort by tens of thousands of builders, as recorded in 1 Kings. And more to the point, the Temple was the House of God, so more than one would not be appropriate. There were, however, thousands of simple synagogues, long before Solomon's time.
Did King Solomon make Jerusalem?

How long did it take to build King Solomon's Temple?
13 years (as opposed to the seven it took to build the temple...last verse of 1 Kings 6) 1 Kings 7:1 "It took Solomon thirteen years, however, to complete the construction of his palace."
Why did the Jews tell Jesus in St. John's gospel it took 46 years to build Solomon's temple?
They told Him this because it was true. It did take 46 years to build Solomon's temple. If you think of how they had to build everything back then, it would take seemingly forever to build anything. They had no electric/battery operated machines. And they also had to do all the heavy lifting without any help...other than more humans. And If you know the story, the temple is rather large. So it is believable that it took that long to build the temple.
