The New Testament was written during this period of time (the transitional period). Josephus and Tacitus (and other historians) look back on this time:
As I said, you can't take biblical interpretation from
unbelieving historians. You have no Bible support for the so-called "40 years transitional or Covenant period". The Covenant Transitional took place right at the
CROSS in a three-day span! Didn't you read the Scripture? The testament/covenant/congregation is Christ's temple of the body!
John 2:19-21 KJV
[19] Jesus answered and said unto them,
Destroy this temple, and
in three days I will raise it up.
[20] Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
[21] But
he spake of the temple of his body.
I am not surprised if you, like the blind Jews who did not understand what Christ talked about! The
temple of his body represents
His Old Testament Congregation but in three days He rebuilt it and now it is called New Testament Congregation in which kingdom representative was given.
All in three days! That is your Covenant Transition right here!
Matthew 21:42-43 KJV
[42] Jesus saith unto them,
Did ye never read in the scriptures, The
stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
[43] Therefore say I unto you,
The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and
given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
This has NOTHING to do with your man-made chart with 40 transition years or physical destruction of Jerusalem. Zero!
What did I tell you many times?
Spiritual Discernment and
comparing Scripture with Scripture.
Word of God is an authority, not Josephus or any historians. Selah!
