When is this going to happen?

Matthew 24:32-35

32 "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. 34 I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
(from New International Version)

These are key scriptures into understanding when the last days will be fulfilled. In scripture the fig tree is symbolic of Israel. Starting around 70 A.D. the Children of Israel were taken captive and scattered all over the globe and the Nation of Israel was disbanded. Ezekiel 37 speaks of the return of Israel as a nation and God bringing His children home to Israel. In 1948, the British Prime Minister signed Israel back into a recognized nation. Since that time Jews from all over the world have been returning to Israel. Verse 34 tells us that the generation that sees the all these things come true will not pass away till it is fulfilled. The lifespan of a generation is 40 to 70 years.

When is it going to happen, very soon, very soon.
