LUKE 19:43 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,”
The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side — the prediction of the 70 CE siege is remarkably precise: embankment built (the Roman circumvallation that surrounded Jerusalem), encircled, hemmed in on every side. The specific military tactics of Titus's siege are described in terms that match the historical record.
