Q&A: Luke 21 and preterism — is it fulfilled prophecy?

Winger holds a dual-fulfillment view. He acknowledges the 70 AD destruction of Jerusalem bears similarities to Luke 21 but argues it falls short of what Jesus described — so it is not the full fulfillment. The final literal fulfillment remains future. He draws a parallel to OT double-fulfillment prophecies (e.g., Isaiah's child born, Psalm 22 and David/Messiah). He suggests the 70 AD connection may serve as a guarantee and provided practical protection for believers who fled Jerusalem.
