Sorry Daqq, way off.
There is only one direct NT interp of the AofD and it is saying that it is a person who will be in the temple (mistaken as Messiah Mk 13:6, 21), in the 1st century at the end of that generation. When that is seen, or any rumor of it coming, the Christians of that generation were supposed to get the heck out. They left Judea and went to were many of the Christian leaders were, Little Asia, which is why there are 7 churches John writes to.
In Dan 8:13, the AofD as an expression actually began as the 'rebellion that desolates.' The rebellious leader would ruin the country says ch 8, while the exact timeline for that is in 9, overshadowed by the Gospel of what Messiah accomplishes before it. Only 9:27 picks up where ch 8 left off.
Both Josephus and Caiaphas were aware of this figure coming along. Caiaphas thought he could intervene; that he could keep the nation alive by appeasing Rome with the sacrifice of Christ, Jn 12, 18. But the rebellion problem was way too deep and was generated by Judaising. The only cure for Judaizing was faith in the Gospel and work in its mission; ask Paul!
Tragically the AofD leader did ruin the country at the end of that generation.
Sorry Interplanner, it is you who are way off, and the reasons you are way off are because of the Preterist historical fullfilment paradigm and for denying that your body is the temple of Elohim. The Master only uses bdelugma three times in all of the Gospel accounts and two of them are companion passages recording the same statement from the Olivet Discourse in Matthew and Mark. Therefore Yeshua employs the word bdelugma only twice in all of his earthly ministry, that is, at least according to what we have written. The one statement therefore expounds the other for those who put their faith and trust in the Teacher Yeshua. For those who do not believe him and his words: please feel free to continue making up your own private interplanner interpretations and plans but do not expect to begin to have the veil removed from your heart, mind, and eyes when you read such things, until your heart turns back to the Father.
