Rabanus, Maurus Magnentius
(On Matthew 24:2)
"The historical sense is clear, that in the forty-second year after the Lord's passion, the city and temple were overthrown under the Roman Emperors Vespasian and Titus." (Matthew 24:2, Quoted in Golden Chain - Matthew 24)
(On Matthew 24:6)
"Or, this is a warning to the Apostles not to flee from Jerusalem and Judaea in terror of these things, when they should begin to come upon them; because the end was not immediately, but the desolation of the province, and the destruction of the city and temple should not come till the fortieth year. And we know that most grievous woes, [p. 804] which spread over the whole province, fell out to the very letter." (in loc., Ibid.)
(On Matthew 24:9)
"For what desert so many evils are to be brought [p. 806] upon Jerusalem, and the whole Jewish province the Lord shews, when He adds, "Then shall they deliver you up, &c." (in loc., Ibid.)
