Good post.
One just has to put themselves in front of Jesus during the discourse............
Matthew 23:
37 - “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her!
38 Behold!
the House of ye is being left desolate<2048>
Luke 13:
34 - “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her!
35 Behold!
the House of ye is being left desolate<2048>,
Revelation 17:16
And the ten horns which thou saw and the beast,
these shall be hating the Prostitute and desolate/hrhmwmenhn <2049> (5772)
they shall be making Her and naked.
And the fleshes of Her they shall be eating and Her they shall be burning in fire.
Revelation 18:19
And they cast dust upon their heads and cried out, lamenting and mourning, saying "woe! woe! the City, the great, in which are rich all the ones having the ships in the sea out of the preciousness of Her,
that to one hour
She was desolated/hrhmwqh <2049> (5681)
"..probably the greatest single slaughter in ancient history."
