Yet another excellent share!!! Thank you!Why Did the Disciples of the Apostles like Polycarp Teach a Future Resurrection Beyond A.D. 70?
It eems from other sources that the tribulation mentioned by Jesus was not the future Great Tribulation.
There is not much from Polycarp on this subject of 70AD...but he was into the future coming of Jesus and that is where his teaching lay.

I love how fair you handled your response here, FreeInChrist, hearing him out.
Great job, brother!

(Edit)
What just dawned on me... they say Flavius Josephus was a son of one of the unbelieving Israeli men in the crowd shouting,
"Free Barabbas! Free Barabbas!" If I recall correctly, he had distanced himself from that group.
There too was a quote by Eusebius, I believe, saying that Flavius Josephus was superstitious, or something along those lines.
I'll track that quote down, & share later.
