The Most Misunderstood Prophecy in Matthew 24?

Did Jesus predict the literal end of the world in Matthew 24?

Or was He using prophetic language to describe the fall of Jerusalem and the end of the Old Covenant age in AD 70?

In this episode of Down to Earth Theology, Matt Plett examines one of the most debated passages in all of biblical prophecy: the darkening of the sun, moon, and stars in Matthew 24:29–31.

By tracing the Old Testament background behind Jesus’ words, Matt shows how Scripture consistently uses cosmic imagery to describe the سقوط of nations, kingdoms, and covenantal systems.

From Isaiah and Ezekiel to Joel, Acts, and Revelation, this study explores whether Matthew 24 was fulfilled in the first century through the destruction of Jerusalem and the rise of Christ’s New Covenant Kingdom.

Topics covered:

- AD 70 and Bible prophecy
