Herod rebuilds the Temple; the building wears both faces at once.
In plain words
Herod rebuilds the Temple on a grand scale: a house with two faces, real worship and a king's borrowed legitimacy in the same stones, and the stage on which the Gospel events take place.
The mechanism
ONE HOUSE, TWO FACES — real worship and captured legitimacy in the same stones, and that is the physical stage the gospel events take place on
