Tim,
When Jesus in Matt 10 sent out His twelve apostles to preach, He said (v.23): ”You will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.” Did He mean Jerusalem’s destruction in AD 70 or His return?
* If Jesus meant Jerusalem’s destruction, why did He speak about ”the Son of man comes”?
* If Jesus meant His return, why did He say they would not have gone ”through the cities of Israel” before the event?
I find both interpretations hard to reconcile with the rest of the Bible. Maybe there is a third possibility?
