AD 70
In AD 70, Roman legions under Titus besieged and destroyed Jerusalem and the Second Temple, fulfilling Jesus' prophecy that not one stone would be left upon another. Over a million Jews perished, and the survivors were scattered.
The destruction of the Temple fulfilled Jesus' prophecy with startling precision and ended the sacrificial system permanently. It confirmed that Christ's sacrifice was the final, once-for-all offering, making the temple system obsolete.
