This is 30 A.D. when He said that this was going to all be destroyed. And it happened in 40 years. Well, the disciples keyed in on that. And it says in Matthew 24, verse 3 in The New Living translation, ''Later, Jesus sat on the Mount of Olives. His disciples came to Him privately and said, Tell us when will all this happen? ...
