The temple that was built before David died was the Temple of Solomon, also known as Solomon's Temple. King David's son, King Solomon, oversaw the construction of this temple in Jerusalem, which became a central place of worship for the Israelites. The Temple of Solomon was completed around 957 BCE, during the reign of King Solomon, several years before David's death.

There is no concrete evidence to suggest that King Solomon was a Freemason. The origins of Freemasonry date back to the medieval stonemason guilds, whereas King Solomon lived thousands of years earlier in biblical times. Freemasonry incorporates symbols and stories from King Solomon's era, but it is not accurate to claim that King Solomon himself was a Freemason.
No. Hezekiah was the son of King Ahaz and Abijah. David had many sons, including Adonijah, Absalom, and Solomon. However, Hezekiah was a direct descendant of David through Solomon.
King Hezekiah was not a prophet. You're thinking of Ezekiel, who was a prophet but not a king. None of the Israelite kings was a prophet in the Jewish or Christian Tradition, despite God speaking to Solomon once in a dream. Only in the Islamic Tradition are Kings David and Solomon considered to be both kings and prophets.
