Excellent point you are making.
The one thing I ask anyone who believes that Enoch, Daniel, Matthew, and Revelation's were written about the 68-70 A.D. Destruction, is we know much of this history from the point of view of Josephus, the Jewish Historian. And Revelation's speaks of one specific event, that if Josephus
DOES NOT MENTION, then what happened in 68-70 A.D. was
NOT the event spoken in the Bible.
That one specific event, the
TWO WITNESSES!!
This particular event takes place for a grand total of 1,263 1/2 days
Revelation 11:
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
Now, within a TWO YEAR period between 68 A.D. and 70 A.D, the total of
1,263 1/2 days is extremely SIGNIFICANT.
Why significant?
TWO YEARS = 730 DAYS
1,263 1/2 days = THREE YEARS AND 5 MONTHS
This means the TWO WITNESSES would have been there longer than the actual war lasted. And some how, between those TWO YEARS, the TWO WITNESSES are to be killed and rise again after 3 1/2 days.
So, it would be IMPOSSIBLE for Josephus to not have noticed this event. It would have been impossible for anyone to not have noticed this event. So IMPOSSIBLE, that we know
it did not take place during the Destruction in 68-70 A.D.
Cracks me up when I present these facts to those who believe Revelation was speaking about the 68-70 A.D. Destruction. It's like they don't comprehend that if the Bible claims these witnesses were here for 1,263 1/2 days, to divide that by 365 (a one years time), it gives you 3 years and 5 months. Which 3 years and 5 months, is 1 year and 5 months LONGER than the entire 2 year Destruction between 68-70 A.D.!!
