The belief that all prophecies relating to the return of Christ, including those in Matthew, the rest of the Gospels, and the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ took place in 70 AD has been discredited and debunked so many times that the word "preterist" evokes the same derision as the words "flat earth".

Oops, now I see your entire sentence. I only looked at my ping list before.
I specifically deny this, and so do all the old commentators I have ever read.
I suspect there is a thing called Preterism, which is another form of ignorance not unlike the same modern dogmas which deny that there was any fulfillment of Christ’s words in 70ad.
Matthew Henry, Darby and others do not hold to these views. Not to Preterism, and not to the modern ideas.
