Simile is one type of figure of speech, metaphor is another.

There are many symbols and types in chapters 11 and 12. The "temple" that
John was told to measure in 11:1 is not the temple Herod built at
Jerusalem, which had no worshipers in it, and no altar when John wrote. In
fact it no longer existed. So what temple is it?

Paul mentions a 'holy temple' in a metaphor, in Ephesians 2:21 & 22. John's
prophecies in 11 and 12 measure this one.

I'm preparing for a Sunday school series on Deuteronomy. Can someone
please
point me to a few reference books on Deuteronomy. Nothing watered down but
I'm not ready to study it in the original language either ;-)

Thanks in advance!

I would recommend the Blue letter bible, which provides many resources
in different level

http://www.blueletterbible.org/

However I personally believe that the Deuteronomy (IMHO a legal contract
between God and the Nation: 1-8 what God provides to the Nation, 9-26
what God expects from the Nation, 27-29 the sanctions) is too hard and
too controversial.
