MArk 13 / Matt 24 - you should read the Jewish literature describing the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD -- the Sibylline Oracles written after 70 AD says He seized the divinely built Temple.. For on his appearance teh whole creation was shake and kings perished" The language used by Mark/Matthew is exactly the same as in Isaiah13 Is 13:10-13 The stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be dark at its rising and the moon will not shed its light... I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place

Psalms 22 foretold the Crucifixion .. the Roman soldiers, and the derelict priest that Rome appointed ... none could stop what was appointed to take place..

Christ said not one stone would be atop another when He returned ... that has not happened ... regardless of Jewish literature ... OH, and the parable of the 'fig' tree, (a bit of Genesis for the wise) had NOT been set out ... in the herald 70 ad destruction. <[p>

Psalm 22 about the suffering servant says nothing even obliquely about Rome.

Besides which, this has no relation to your incorrect reference to Mark 13:20-23

Mark 13:20-23 describes the fall of Jerusalem = The language used by Mark/Matthew is exactly the same as in Isaiah13 Is 13:10-13 The stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be dark at its rising and the moon will not shed its light... I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place

And this is clear in the secular histories - the Sibylline Oracles written after 70 AD says He seized the divinely built Temple.. For on his appearance the whole creation was shake and kings perished

Christ said not one stone would be atop another when He returned

That HAPPENED -> Between 70 and 73 AD the Temple complex was destroyed by the Roman army. In 70 AD the Roman legions disobeyed Titus' orders and set fire to the Temple. As a result, the bold in the Temple melted down between its huge stones.

The Roman soldiers were then ordered to dismantle everything STONE BY STONE.

By the time they had finished recovering the gold, nothing was left but a field. The Romans then plowed the field under

not one stone was atop another when He returned to destroy the temple in 70 AD
