  • Rob Mitchell on Mark 13:14 - 9 years ago
    This passage from Mark reflects that of Daniel. The roman army surrounded and destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD. Just as Daniel was not written until after Antiochus and the Abomination that makes desolate, so Jesus 's teaching was not composed until after the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD. The first gospel did not surface until after or during the destruction of Jerusalem. Written either in Rome or Northern Judea, away from the immediate Roman assault. None of the Gospels date to before the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem. Authentic St. Paul is the only NT writings to surface before the destruction of Jerusalem. Most biblical scholars have researched this and it makes sense. Paul and Peter were dead before Rome destroyed the center of both Judaism and Christianity---still centered in Jerusalem.
