According to the Parable of the Fig Tree in Matthew 24, the generation that sees Israel reborn and the fig tree "put out its leaves" is the same generation that will see the completion of the Tribulation and the return of Jesus Christ (Second Coming).
The length of the generation is given in Psalms 90:10, "The days of our lives are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they be eighty years, yet is their labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away." (Psalms 90:10)
I feel like it will be a 70 year generation (for the rapture) with the following years representative of the labour (figurative of Great Tribulation) and sorrow mentioned in Psalms 90:10. Also let's say the rapture was to happen this year (70 year generation), and the start of the Great Tribulation, then the Second Coming will be 7 years later making it 77 years of the fig tree generation. I'm sure you all know the significance of the number 77. Have any of you guys thought of it like this? And also if 80 years is the limit of a generation then 2028 - 7 = 2021 do you think we should expect the rapture between now and 2021 at the latest?
