. DIDN’T JESUS SPECIFICALLY SAY THE TRIBULATION WOULD HAPPEN IN HIS GENERATION
= = =

Well, Jesus is God, so His generation is of infinite length.

[grumpa]

Now that’s a new take on “this generation.”

[Tell It Right]

The four possible translation of "generation" (Greek is "genea") from Luke 21:32 (the aforementioned red letter passage saying "this generation shall not pass away"), are:

1. fathered, birth, nativity

2. that which has been begotten, men of the same stock, a family

 a. the several ranks of natural descent, the successive members of a genealogy
 b. metaph. a group of men very like each other in endowments, pursuits, character
  i. esp. in a bad sense, a perverse nation

3. the whole multitude of men living at the same time

4. an age (i.e. the time ordinarily occupied be each successive generation), a space of 30 - 33 years

So Jesus could have been saying that the people alive at the time won't die out (definition #3 like we think of "generation"), or He could have been saying that they will have descendants still living at that time (their family lineage won't be wiped out) (definition #2).

I lean towards definition #2. The Jews won't be wiped out before the tribulation.
