Who was responsible for Israel being scattered into every nation after the destruction of the temple?

God was responsible. After the temple’s destruction by Titus, God permitted Israel to be dispersed again. That dispersion into every nation was an act of God, a sovereign act whereby He scattered them, not merely a Roman action, as they remained until modern times.

Les explains that after the destruction of the temple by Titus, the Roman general, God not only permitted the temple to be totally destroyed but also permitted the nation of Israel to be dispersed again. He calls this an act of God, a sovereign act whereby He scattered them into every nation of the world, as seen up until our own time. Les then contrasts this with the present time, when God is fulfilling His Word by bringing them back to the land, never to be driven out again.
