Question
When and why did he say this?

Answer
Hi Amanda,

  This was said at the trial of Jesus. When the chief priests and all the council were trying to put him to death. they found two witnesses who lied about what Jesus said.  The witnesses said," that Jesus said He was able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days"

 But what Jesus really said is in John 2:19-22

     Jesus said,"destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
     He was speaking of His body. and the two false witnesses tried to change it around what He said. He did not say that He would destroy the temple.

Hope this answers your question!
      May God bless you always,
             Linda
