I think something I try to say is mentioned Here and there in the forum, so if its not something new for you pardon me

وَإِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مَكَانَ الْبَيْتِ أَنْ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِي شَيْئًا وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْقَائِمِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ 22:26
إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ لَلَّذِي بِبَكَّةَ مُبَارَكًا وَهُدًى لِلْعَالَمِينَ 3:96
فِيهِ آيَاتٌ بَيِّنَاتٌ مَقَامُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ۖ وَمَنْ دَخَلَهُ كَانَ آمِنًا ۗ وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا ۚ وَمَنْ كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنِ
الْعَالَمِينَ 3:97
And We have appointed to Abraham the location of the Sanctuary: ?Do not set up anyone with Me,
and purify My Sanctuary for those who visit, and those who are standing, and the kneeling, the prostrating.? (22:26)
The first Sanctuary established
for the people is the one in Bakk?a, blessed, and a guidance for the worlds.
In it are clear signs: the station of Abraham. And whoever enters it will be secure. And God is owed from the people to make Pilgrimage to the Sanctuary, whoever can make a path to it. And whoever rejects, then God has no need of the worlds. (3:96-97)
this is what I want to say:
1- God house is not something symbolic, it is not really god house but a place or a building which is belong to no one, no one own it and it is not in proprietary of a human, thats why we call it God house.
2- God house is for people. it is not a forbidden area or such a sanctuary which no one should pass. it is certainly can not be that cube shape in makkah, because 22:26 said clean it for people to came in it. people not going to the Kaaba (that cube shape building is too small for that) God house is like our today mosque which every one can go inside of it, pray or even rest there (why not!).
3- its the first Sanctuary not the only one. it means God have more than one house, every sanctuary is God house. this one is the first one of them and just because Abraham build it with his heart and Pilgrimage is special.
correct me If Im wrong
