Shlama Akhi Craig,
This is a very fascinating report (from both a Roman historian and a Jewish historian <!-- s:bomb: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/bomb.gif" alt=":bomb:" title="The Bomb" /><!-- s:bomb: --> <!-- s:bigups: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/bigups.gif" alt=":bigups:" title="Big Ups" /><!-- s:bigups: --> )...but
wouldn't the 'tribulation' mentioned in this verse you posted about (Mt. 24:29) be the same tribulation referred to as 'great tribulation' just 8 verses prior in 24:21? " For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be."-(KJV). For 'tribulation' in vs. 21, Lamsa (and Paul Younan <!-- s
--><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->) have 'suffering' and Murdock has 'distress'. For verse 21 to be accurate prophecy from Yeshua, that would mean a greater tribulation / distress / suffering than even the combined German / Russian pogroms, wouldn't it? Let's look at those last words of verse 21 again..."...such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be." I'm certainly not trying to see how much evil I can muster for Israel's future, but doesn't verse 21 (straight from the lips of Yeshua no less) have profound implications here?
