Something else to keep in mind is Simeon, the prophet from the gospel of Luke.

Simeon (Greek: Συμεών) at the Temple is the "just and devout" man of Jerusalem who, according to Luke 2:25–35, met Mary, Joseph, and Jesus as they entered the Temple to fulfill the requirements of the Law of Moses on the 40th day from Jesus' birth, i. e. the presentation of Jesus at the Temple.

Simeon was very old in age and was visited by the Holy Spirit and was told that He would not die until he met the “Christ”. He held him as an infant and said a prayer over Him and went away. It is said that this is symbolic of the last generation to witness Jesus.

A generation in scripture is said to be 70-80 years. Israel became a nation in 1948.

Today, December 3, 2022 is exactly 74 years, 7 months, and 0 days from the day Israel became a nation.

Just something to think about.
