Q: What Are the ‘Times of the Gentiles’?

The phrase times of the Gentiles is unique to the Gospel of Luke. Jesus said, “And they [the Jewish people] will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations.

      Could it be talking about those that support a replacement theology for Israel? Those that teach that God is done with Israel, and all of the remaining promises fall to the Church which is now “spiritual Israel”.

      Just a thought…
