We Christians ARE the children of the Promise. All the followers of Jesus are; Jew or Gentile.
As for those who did not want Me for their King, bring them before Me and slaughter them. Luke 19:27
Isaiah 22:1-14, Amos 2:4-5
I would think 70ad Jerusalem was a fairly massive slaughter:
The Jews to be kept safe during the Great Tribulation
Isa 30:25
There will be on every high mountain
And on every high hill
Rivers
and streams of waters,
In the day of
the great slaughter,
When the towers fall.
Zephaniah1:
16 A day of trumpet and alarm/shouting on the
fortified cities and
the lofty towers,
17 "And I bring distress to men and they go as blind-ones, that against YHWH they sin,
and blood of them shall be poured out as soil and intestine of them as dung.

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD
The most ancient of these walls was remarkable for its great strength, and was, moreover, erected on a hanging rock,
and fortified by sixty towers.
on the middle wall there were fourteen towers only ; but on the third, which was also distinguished by the extraordinary merit of its architecture, there were no less than ninety.
............Meanwhile the horrors of famine grew still more melancholy and afflictive.
......In the depth or this horrible extremity, a Jewess of noble family urged by the intolerable cravings of hunger, slew her infant child, and prepared it for a meal ; ............At the recital of this melancholy and affecting occurrence, the whole city stood aghast,
and poured forth their congratulations on those whom death had hurried away from such heartrending scenes.
Before their final demolition, however, Titus took, a. survey of the city and its fortifications ; and, while contemplating their impregnable strength, could not help ascribing his success to the peculiar interposition of the ALMIGHTY HIMSELF. "Had not God himself (exclaimed he) aided out operations, and driven the Jews from their fortresses, it would have been absolutely impossible to have taken them ; for what could men, and the force of engines,
have done against such towers as these ?"
