>>The implication was not a longer time - it was the fact that there was a whole new generation of people born after Christ who never knew him. Those of us who are familiar with what we now know about those times understand that this was the driving factor behind the writing and collecting of NT Scripture.<<

So you are saying that none of the Apostles, who knew and followed Christ, wrote any of the books of the New Testament?

Follow the words as written. A generation consisted of about 20 years in NT times. I'm sorry if it's simple.
