So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away before all these things take place.
Of course you could argue that the use of the word "generation" is a metaphor or something, but then you are then frimly in the realm of unfalsafiable dogma, able to interpret at will to make things fit as you see fit.
You forgot about language translation. The word 'generation' could also be interpreted as race (ie the Jews). As you should know, words can have multiple meanings. Many words in English also have multiple meanings.
