LOL You must have missed all the Christmass stuff, the Deliever arrived 2,000 years ago .We do not need to speculate one bit as to the temple existing in the time of the end.. when Daniel's people shall be DELIVERED..
The context of the Apocalypse ;If we read the Revelation (or unveiling) of Jesus Christ in its correct context.. we see clearly that the Temple will exist and that the holy city shall they tread down forty and two months.. that's three and a half years.. as Revelation 11 details..
Im curious why you claim Dan's people will be delivered and Luke claims that the oath was fulfilled? Why do you think you can contradict Luke?The context clearly pertains to.. the things which shall be hereafter..
LOL Christ announced His kingdom Himself while He was here, just after the resurrection He informed us that He is the seat of all the power and authority there is. Paul leaves no doubt that believers are translated into His kingdom. This as Paul taught is the very kingdom the prophets foresaw.Revelation 11 also details the coming kingdom of Christ when the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ..
:toofunny:toofunny:toofunnyAt the revelation of Jesus Christ..
The point being, the "great tribulation" that Jesus refers to is such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, which would disqualify the events of 70 AD, as that had already happened by the Babylonians!

The point being the temple is intact at the time of the great tribulation!
The temple can be destroyed during that time of great tribulation.
As I said before:
Fact is, is that the disciples do ask about the destruction of the temple, specifically about the timing of the destruction of the temple. Jesus, in his answer, doesn't need to go into detail about the destruction of the temple, but he does need to speak on timing.
"And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?..."
You mention "context" here, well the discourse starts out in response to a question about the temple's destruction, so you would expect the temple's destruction to still be in view. (There is also a second question, so that second subject would also be expected to be in view.)
Also, if you look at the parallel chapter in Luke 21, it's pretty clear that the temple destruction is picked up again in the parallel section of Luke 21:20-24. (But never explicitly mentioned.)
In Matthew 24 and 25, Jesus is recorded as addressing the question about the sign of His coming and the end of the age.
Maybe that's how you read it.He goes right to the context of His answer, and all the way to the end of chapter 25, without one single reference to the destruction of the city and sanctuary!
The "abomination of desolation" is likely a reference to some kind of idolatrous desecration of the temple. There is then a time of "great tribulation" which could easily include the destruction of the temple.
