Remember, you are the one that said The destruction of the temple was Jesus coming, "in Judgement" as described in Matthew 24:30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Another point is that the word 'earth' to a first century jewish context and hearer was the 'earth' or land domain of Judea. That was the 'earth' to which they hoped to remain in.
Read Isaiah 24 and 25 noting the times the 'earth' is mentioned in reference to judgment to come on the people and ways of that covenant and at the time [lifespan] of the coming of Messiah.
Excerpt from Isaiah 24.
See, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth
and devastate it;
The earth will be completely laid waste
and totally plundered.
The Lord has spoken this word.
4 The earth dries up and withers,
the world languishes and withers,
the heavens languish with the earth.
5 The earth is defiled by its people;
they have disobeyed the laws,
violated the statutes
and broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore a curse consumes the earth;
its people must bear their guilt.
Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up,
and very few are left.
