Actually, it took only four months, but whos 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?

It wasn’t just that but there were others. I’ve never seen the point of associating Nero with the Anti-christ. Maybe he was a type but there were alot of types throughout the ages (Hitler being one). But there were no signs in the heavens back then, no earth shaking (about 130 years prior yes), the only thing listed was a comet and Josephus called it what it was just a comet. But that didn’t even show up until later that year.
