Yes, Jesus gave the Olivet Discourse TO believers, but it was not an ekklesia building discourse, it was to answer the insistence as to what shall be the SIGNS of the arrival of the end of the age

One needs to take the Law of Double Reference into account. As Antiochus Epiphanes foreshadowed the Anti-christ, so perhaps the occasion of 70 AD (Tisha b'Av) (as a judgment on the Jewish nation) has foreshadowed the 70th week of completion of God's judgment on the rest of the world's nations (Mt. 25:31-33) after the 7-year final Tribulation, when He pens up Satan and comes with His saints to institute His Earthly Kingdom.

Just a suggestion --
