What is the story about Jews rebuilding the Temple of Jerusalem?

No one knows. Period.
Normative Judaism does not plan or push for the rebuilding of the Temple. We pray to God for His redemption and all that will be included with it, and that's all. One of the purposes of the present exile was/is to teach us the quality of humility and patience.
(There are tiny fringe cliques who attempt to take some action or another towards the rebuilding of the Temple, but these people do not have the approval of any major Rabbinic figure. And their caprices serve to potentially endanger the Jewish people. Not to mention that we don't today have the status of ritual purity which would theoretically enable us to deal with matters concerning the Temple.)

∙ 10y agoAccording to prophecy a Great Tribulation is coming upon the Jewish people, but will affect all the world. During this time a temple will be built in Jerusalem so that the Jewish people can resume animal sacrifices. The Antichrist will make a treaty with Israel, but in the middle of this tribulation the Antichrist will desecrate the temple and break his treaty.
Very many people believe the time of the tribulation is coming as the signs are showing that indication, including the Jewish people desiring to rebuild the temple.
Those responsible (Levites) have everything ready for the new temple, priest's clothing, temple utensil's, the whole ball of wax. All they need is the temple to be built. Read the Book of Revelation to see what is going to occur during the tribulation.
Jewish answer:
In normative Judaism, we study (among many other subjects) about the Temple, and we await its rebuilding and the return of prophecy, but for a number of reasons we don't make actual physical efforts to this goal. Doing so at our own initiative would be fruitless; and our traditions warn us not to do ill-advised things out of impatience (see Talmud, Ketubot 111a).

This did not happen. The Second Temple stood while Jesus was alive and remained standing for four decades after Jesus was killed by the Romans. The Third Temple has not been built.Jesus was never in exile, didn't return from one, and was never involved in any way in rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem. Jesus came to earth approximately 536 years after the return of the Jews to rebuild the temple.An observation:Just in case the question meant to read "Jews" instead of "Jesus" (which would then completely make sense), the answer would be King Cyrus of Persia (Ezra 5:13). Zerrubabel led the Jews, along with Ezra and Nehemiah in the rebuilding of the Temple.
