He didn't rebuild a temple. He allowed the Hebrew aristocracy, which had been exiled to Babylon, the option of returning to Judah to try to reclaim their estates. Those who chose to do so were permitted to rebuild the temple of Jehovah at Jerusalem which had been demolished by the Babylonians after a the failed revilt which had got them exiled in the first place.
