Shlama Akhi Otto,
No worries man. I wasn't angry. I did however require that clarification. Can you see why? Of course Y'shua predicted the destruction of JERUSALEM, but not ALL OF ISRAEL'S PEOPLE because, Y'shua and Rav Shaul both talked about the eternal preservation of the TRIBES OF ISRAEL, who were predicted to be scattered. I think Bauscher, being the precise mathemetician he is, would not make this mistake. If he meant "destruction of the Temple" or "destruction of Jerusalem" I am 100% sure he would have said so. It's not as if he was known for his restraint from speaking his mind in the past, right?
You know in Hebrew and Aramaic the word for "nation" also means "people". So when I see "nation" I think "people, ehtnicity, tribe".
And for the record, I was and am not in any way suggesting this was deliberate or dark on your part. You simply posted what you thought was a relevant citation to a discussion. Because I hold you in such high esteem, as well as my Torah bound requirements to investigate such things thoroughly regardless, I let it stand because I know your heart and I know you meant no harm. I have absolutely no issues with you man. None.
Thank you for your explanation and I hope you see where I was coming from.
