When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

The Judean Christians fleeing to the mountains are future unfulfilled

Tell them that.

Then tell us what they tell you.

Why are you ignoring those Scriptures?

Crickets!

Was the generation of the Apostles the generation that witnessed the day and hour no man knows, were they the generation who witnessed all things fulfilled in Matthew Chapter 24?

"Absolutely Not" it's a future generation that will witness the day and hour no man knows in the future literal second coming of Jesus in the heavens

Will you now break out your preterist symbolic magical wand and start waving it, waiting?

Matthew 24:33-36KJV
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

When Christ died and rose? Or in 70 AD when it was fully destroyed? There can only be one answer here.

Why this matters is because of what Matthew 24:15, for one, records.

Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand

If the holy place in this verse is meaning the 2nd temple, that obviously, thus undeniably, means that the 2nd temple did not cease to be the holy place when Christ died and rose, it continued to be the holy place up until it ws destroyed. Which then means since animal sacrificing continued even after Christ died and rose, that because some are interpreting the holy place to be meaning the 2nd temple, their interpretation implies that God was ok with animal sacrificing still continuing, because, after all, per their interpretation, the 2nd temple was the still the holy place until it was destroyed.
....

All one need do is recognize what timeline Jesus was giving His Olivet discourse SIGNS for, in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. A bit of knowledge about the 70 A.D. destruction of the temple by the general Titus of the Roman army also helps.

Those SIGNS He gave are for the 'end' of this world, as they parallel the events of the Seals of Revelation 6. And the SEALS are about events for the very end just prior to Christ's future return. So really, figuring this out should be easy, for those who keep His Word that is.

The SIGN of not one stone atop another is actually a DUEL TIMELINE PROPHECY. That's why Christ's disciples right after that sign they then asked Him in Matthew 24:3 when those things would be, and what would be the SIGN of His future coming. Then Jesus continued with the SIGNS of the end leading up to His future return.


1. The Matthew 24:15 verse is Jesus quoting from Daniel 11:31 about the placing of the "abomination that maketh desolate", meaning an IDOL abomination placed at the temple in Jerusalem.

2. In 70 A.D. Jerusalem, the Roman general Titus by his army took Jerusalem and destroyed the 2nd temple and the city. This partially fulfilled the not one stone atop another prophecy for the Temple Mount complex of buildings. However, not ALL... the stones were destroyed there, as the Western Wall of the old temple complex still is standing today at the Temple Mount; the Jews pray at it and call it the Wailing Wall. Also, the stones of Islam's Dome of the Rock structure stands on today's Temple Mount.

3. The Romans in 70 A.D. never placed the "abomination of desolation" IDOL at that temple, because per the Jewish historian Josephus, the temple caught fire from inside, and burned down before the Romans could get possession of it. Thus the Matthew 24:15 sign was NOT fulfilled in 70 A.D.

4. The Matthew 24:15 event of the "abomination of desolation", is about the placing of an IDOL at the Jew's stone temple in Jerusalem. That is where that "holy place" Jesus mentions is located. It is the event that kicks off the time of the future "great tribulation," as Jesus linked that directly to it.

5. Because Jesus linked the future time of "great tribulation" with SEEING that "abomination of desolation" in the Jew's stone temple in Jerusalem, at the "holy place", that automatically means there MUST be another stone temple built by the Jews in Jerusalem for the end.

To be completely literally true to Scripture, a futurized re-fulfillment of the Olivet Discourse necessitates a complete literal identical re-creation and re-incarnation of everything and everyone described in the associated passages in Matthew, Mark, and Luke.

Anything else is presumption, conjecture, and speculation qualifying only as private interpretation.

Since when does God require our permission to how He incorporates and fulfills His prophecies.

No such thing as a dual prophecy fulfillment, it's more like fake it till ya make it

 

[covenantee]

Since when does God require our permission to how He incorporates and fulfills His prophecies.

"with man this is impossible but with God all things are possible"

In the absence of contrary evidence in a dual fulfillment scenario, I would expect His future revelation to be consistent with His past revelation.
