1 | Taleb, When did Matthew 24:25 occur? | Matt 24:1 | Searcher56 | 78526 | ||
Scripture ... Matthew 24:15 "Therefore when you see the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" Taleb, "When you see" is in the future. This may have happened before their lifetime ... and will happen again. There is more than one prophecy that (will) occur tiece. Or in your case happen in the lifetime of the 12. So I ask when did it happen between 30 and 90 AD? Searcher |

2 | Taleb, When did Matthew 24:25 occur? | Matt 24:1 | Taleb | 78642 | ||
Yes, Searcher, “Therefore when you see” WAS in the future of “those” to whom He spoke. Their “whole future” WAS in our past. The abomination of desolation which was spoken of through Daniel occurred beginning when the Roman soldiers came against the city and continued through the burning of it, the destruction of the temple, with no stone upon another and the placing of their gods in the Holy Place and their offering sacrifices upon the altar – as recorded in numerous sources at your fingertips. Taking ALL Scripture into the picture reveals the “when you see”. Mark 13:14’s says “When you see the abomination standing WHERE IT OUGHT NOT. Luke 21:20 adds “clues to our mystery”. “When you see ‘Jerusalem surrounded by armies’, then you will understand that HER desolation is at hand.” “This” happened over the span of time it took for the Romans to conquer the city. Surely you don’t think “The Holy Land” recently picked up that name? Maccabees, written centuries before Jesus’ birth, refers to the city, to the land, to the temple as “Holy.” Allow me to paraphrase from Josephus (an eyewitness, but not a Christian). The city is surrounded by Cestius Gallus, a general. He fought against the city for five days. Then, for no good reason, the army retreated. The Jews chased after them and fought against the Romans. The Jews killed 5,300 footman, 380 horsemen. This was during the 12 year of Nero’s reign. Josephus adds a little tid-bit. “After this calamity had befallen Cestius, many of the eminent Jews swam away from the city, as from a ship when it is going to sink.” From many great Christian historians, we learn all the Christians fled to Pella. Just like His word promised, all of God’s “sealed” people (Jewish Christians) escaped the wrath that fell. HIS-story informs us ALL the Christians who heeded Christ’s warnings escaped alive. As explained in Rev. 12, after the sounding of the last trumpet, which 1 Cor 15:52 reveals. Interesting that Jesus’ warning (verses about not being pregnant, unclothed, or walking on the Sabbath, ONLY FIT THEIR situation. After that destruction 2,000 years ago – RULES changed. It is NOT unlawful to travel on the Sabbath anymore. Today, people wouldn’t be “stoned for streaking”. But in the “last days” in which Jesus referred to – some of those things were punishable offences. Nor would “travel in winter” be hazardous today. Respectfully, Taleb |

3 | When did the 1280 days happen? | Matt 24:1 | Searcher56 | 78644 | ||
When did the 1280 / 1325 days happen? I need specific dates, since that was what Daniel said and Christ pointed to it. |

4 | When did the 1280 days happen? | Matt 24:1 | CDBJ | 78657 | ||
Greetings Searcher56, There is a book out called the Sign, if you like to read, that goes into every detail on this subject. It is the most informative that I have ever read with over 600 pages on future events. ISBN # 0-89107-756-1 I have read through it 4 times and I am still learning new things. |

6 | When did the 1280 days happen? | Matt 24:1 | Taleb | 78664 | ||
Searcher, great question. Like I mentioned before, ALL of the mentioning from the rest of Scripture needs to be considered. The fact is Jesus pointed to the “fact” of Daniel’s prophecy, which WAS fulfilled in during the 3 plus years of Anticohus’ rampage. Josephus wrote concerning The Babylonians destroying the holy place: “This desolation came to pass according to the prophecy of Daniel, which was given four hundred and eight years before.” The details of the abominations cover pages. Concerning the destruction of the last temple, during the great tribulation, Vespasian declared war against the Jews in the spring of 67 A.D. During the three and half years, give or take, morning and evening sacrifices were offered daily until July 17th, 70 A.D. During that time, the abomination was being done just by the fact the Romans were “standing where they ought not” (Mark 13); the Romans “stand in the holy place” (Matt 24:15); “the disciples KNEW the desolation was nigh when they saw Jerusalem compressed with the Roman army”. (Luke 21:20). It's interesting, that until the 19th century, there wasn't any question about Daniel's prophecy, nor Matthew 24 etc. being in the future. Respectfully, Taleb |

Unless you can prove Daniel's prophecy took place between 30 and 70 ... specfically the 1280 / 1325 days ... I think you need to rethink your view. |
