"Just" Scripture. The generation that sees Israel become a nation again in a day after the 70 AD dispersion is to see the rest of the End Times Prophecies come to pass as well.
In that particular prophecy, Christ uses the word 'generation'. Every other time he uses the greek word for generation he is uniformly referring to a people, or a nation, or a tribe. I think the intepretation that all the adult males alive when Israel was formed will see the end of time is an incorrect interpretation and not what Christ was saying. What I believe the Lord was saying in this prophecy is that once Israel is a nation again, she will never pass away before the end comes.
How may times have the muslims tried to destroy Israel, and how many times has it worked?

I understand that perspective.
I merely disagree with it.
