The "abomination of desolation" is interpreted for us in places like Luke 21: 20 " Therefore when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her. 22 For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled

The abomination of desolation is described in Daniel, which Christ refers to, (9:27,12:11) and has to happen before the destruction of the city since when the Jews saw it occurring they were to flee.

And idol is set up in the Temple that desecrates it (Dan.12:11) and causes all sacrifices to cease.

It had nothing to do with the surrounding of the city, as described in Luke, which do refer to the events of 70AD
