THIS Generation
The generation contemporary with Jesus witnessed the events that he predicted that culminated in the destruction of the Temple – Mark 13:28-31 . Next, Jesus provided the chronological key - the disciples would know the time of the Temple’s demise when they saw all “ these things ” coming to pass, and before “ this generation ” reached its inevitable end. That was his definitive answer to the question, “ when will these things come to pass ?” – within one generation - [ Hourglass Photo by NeONBRAND on Unsplash ].
