What does Luke 21:24 say will happen to Jerusalem until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled?
According to Luke 21:24, the Jews of Jerusalem will fall by the edge of the sword and be led away captive into all nations, and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. This refers to 70 A.D.
Les explains that Luke 21:24 describes the Jewish people of Jerusalem falling by the sword and being led captive into all nations. He identifies this as 70 A.D., under Titus' invasion and destruction of the Temple, not the end-time Tribulation. The clue is that at the end of the Tribulation, the Jews will not be led captive into all nations but will survive until their Messiah appears. Instead, they were emptied out of the land and dispersed into every nation, and Jerusalem was trodden down by the Gentiles until the time of the Gentiles is fulfilled.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
