Strange Parallels of 2 BC and 2016

There may be some truth in this comparison. There’s no such prophetic similarities between the events of Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21 and the events of 70 AD that many so hard have tried to align in eschatology John Ruffle John Conger Ricky Grimsley Alan N Carla Smith

The same sequence of events are listed in matthew, mark, luke, and rev 6 but in luke 21 a difference occurs. Luke inserts another set of events that happen before false christs and wars and rumors of wars. Luke 21:8-12 KJVS
[8] And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. [9] But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. [10] Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: [11] And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. [12] BUT BEFORE ALL THESE,they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you , delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.

This is natural for Luke on many pericopes. He combines earlier material from Matthew and Mark, edits it and even revises before writing it down. From a text critical point these minor differences and sequence or detail should not hold much significance, except of course for a growing and more detail interpretation of the pericope during Luke’s times while Matthew and Mark represents a much earlier interpretation(s)

So you would take the position that its basically a mistake? Like you wouldnt preach about the woman taken in adultery because most scholars feel it never happened?
