  • Summary

  • Today Adam and Matthew discuss more material that was left out of Sunday's sermon. This material relates to the historical narrative around what exactly happened to the city of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD. What is it about the fall of the temple to the Zealots, and of the city to the Roman General Titus, that makes these events as a whole a good candidate for the fulfillment of Jesus' predictions in Matthew 23:37-24:35?

    [Note: We haven't marked this episode as "explicit," but just know that there are descriptions of violent acts in this episode that might not be appropriate for little ones.]
