I wouldn’t buy too much into his teachings. For a ‘Lecturer in church history’ he needs to do some more reading. His description of the siege of Jerusalem is off by several years, like 3 of them. The siege and conquest of Jerusalem only took 7 months not 3.5 as he claims.

Actually, it took only four months, but who’s quibbling.

Dr. Lee probably had the entire war in view, which began in AD66, and lasted over three years. How close do the armies have to be to the city before one considers the siege to have begun?

I would not discount what he says based on that small misstatement.
