Why Jeff Durbin and Preterists are Wrong about "This Generation" in Matthew 24:34

In this video, we look at why Jeff Durbin and other Preterists are incorrect in their interpretation of "This Generation" in Matthew 24:34. We explore the Olivet Discourse and its fulfillment beyond AD 70, challenging the Preterist view that Matthew 24:34 is definitive for placing the entirety of the Olivet Discourse in AD 70. We explore the presuppositional issues, the context of the Olivet Discourse, and the three main views for what "this generation" could refer to.
