Luke 21:20-24
Jeshua spoke about the destruction of Jerusalem. He even said that “not one stone would remain upon” another regarding the great Temple. (Which make me completely doubt the Western Wall as belonging to the Temple and not Hadrian's Fortress.
So my point being that the destruction of Jerusalem and the Diaspora Jeshua warned about happened already by Rome when the Jews were dispersed 2000 years ago. It’s not a future event. Yes, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble is still ahead, but we are now entering the end to the times when the Gentiles have trampled on Jerusalem. The Gentiles means everyone else, Christians and Muslims will have no claim or power to squat on Jerusalem. It’s coming.
“Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.” -Jeshua
[Yes, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble is still ahead]
Absolutely. It will begin one-half-way through that 7 years.
Of course, when the “peace” comes there will be even more mocking. The world will rejoice over the political messiah who has brought peace between Jew and Muslim over Jerusalem.
Sure, sounds far-fetched.
Israel returning as a viable nation sounded pretty far-fetched in the 1800’s.
A national Israel, reborn, that recaptured Jerusalem (and then gave 1/2 of it back) would have sounded ridiculous and far-fetched during World War II.
Christianity is a development of Judaism — with provision for gentiles, who in turn will respect and honor the Jewish legacy. There won’t be any “trampling” by those gentiles. They are counted part of the church universal of all believers from Adam’s generation to the end.
Quote~ 20“When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. 22For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written. 23How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

I think that prophetic statement has dual fulfillment implications. Speaking of both, A.D.70, and also the times of Jacobs trouble, soon to come.
