Speculation would be involved in trying to make 70 AD of little import in the writings of the Apostles. | One is hard pressed to find even one event of AD 70 for which there is a prophetic statement in the prophets, the gospels, the epistles, or in the Apocalypse. The temple was destroyed when they crucified the Lord of glory.
