scripture to indicate that another Jewish temple will ever be built. The prophecies were all fulfilled against the temple of that time, which was subsequently destroyed within that generation. Key verses This predicted event has been variously interpreted as referring to: Jesus' transfiguration the resurrection the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost the spread of the kingdom through the preaching of the early church the destruction of the Temple and of Jerusalem in AD 70 the second coming and final establishment of the kingdom the coming of Jesus Christ in vision to the apostle John in revelation. Many preterists find view 6 unacceptable because it implies a mistake on the part of Jesus about the timing of his return. Many preterists believe the immediate context seems to indicate the first view, the transfiguration, which immediately follows. This view seems to satisfy that "some" disciples would see the glory of the Son of Man, but it does not satisfy the statement that "he will repay every man for what he has done". The same situation occurs with views 2 through 4. Only view 5 (the judgement on Jerusalem in AD 70) appears to satisfy both conditions, reinforced with Revelation 2:23, 20:12 and 22:12, as a preterist would argue.
