And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down
Did you know Titus ordered the temple to be preserved, however it was set on fire and the gold melted and ran into the crevices of the stones?
What's also interesting is the fulfillment of this prophecy while it started in AD70 it is yet to be fully fulfilled.
Look at Daniel 9:27
And he shall confirm the covenant (Heb 13:20 everlasting covenant in Christ confirmed)
with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations (Gentile enters the Holiest of Hollies)
he shall make it desolate, (AD70 treading underfoot begins)
even UNTIL the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive among all nations, and
Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles, UNTIL the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
The complete end of the Temple in Jerusalem has not yet been achieved, for Jesus said that "There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down" (Matt. 24:2).
As yet part of the Temple wall remains standing, but Daniel gives further details in ch. 11 concerning the advent of the king of the north in the latter times, when the Gogian power will establish 'the tabernacle of his palace' in 'the glorious holy mountain' (v. 45). At this time of extreme trouble for Jewry as per Jer 30:6-7; Ezek. 37.
The Gogian power, as if they were Roman, will appear to have success, the "overspreading of abomination" has continued. Jerusalem will be completely desecrated, and in the turmoil that will follow, every stone will be overturned.
At the time of this final consummation, however, the punishment of the desolator shall be due, and will come swiftly: "he shall come to his end, and none shall help him" (Dan. 11:45).
The Continuous Historical interpretation is the only way these prophecies can be understood.
Careful reading of the Word.
