Margaret Barker - The revelation of Jesus Christ: which God gave to him to show to his servants what must soon take place (2000) "There is a remarkable similarity between the portents and oracles reported by Josephus and those in the Book of Revelation"
Alan R. Kerr - The Temple of Jesus' Body: The Temple Theme in the Gospel of John (2002) "This book is a study of the Johannine Christian response to the fall of the Jerusalem Temple in 70 ce. A crucial text in this investigation is Jn 2.13-22 and its context, which provide a lens through which other texts in John are viewed. Kerr's examination of the Temple festivals of Passover, Tabernacles, Dedication suggests that in Jesus fulfils and replaces these, while in the case of the Sabbath he effects a transformation. The overall conclusion is that the Johannine Jesus replaces and fulfils the Jerusalem Temple."
Steven J. Frierson - Imperial Cults and the Apocalypse of John : Reading Revelation in the Ruins (2001) After more than a century of debate about the significance of imperial cults for the interpretation of Revelation, this is the first study to examine both the archaeological evidence and the Biblical text in depth. Friesen argues that a detailed analysis of imperial cults as they were practiced in the first century CE in the region where John was active allows us to understand John's criticism of his society's dominant values. He demonstrates the importance of imperial cults for society at the time when Revelation was written, and shows the ways in which John refuted imperial cosmology through his use of vision, myth, and eschatological expectation."
N. B. Stonehouse - The Apocalypse in the Ancient Church (1929) This book presents evidence from Patristic sources of the first six centuries for the 70 AD application of Revelation. Available from Calvin College or Westminster College libraries.
J.G. Tinius - Die Offenbarung Johannis, durch Einleitung, Uebersetzung und Erklarung (1839)
BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR "HISTORICAL PRETERISTS"
Organized Chronologically
1700: William Burkitt PDF Files: Expository Notes - Vol. 1 | Expository Notes - Vol. 2 | Life of Burkitt
1721: Owen, Dr. John - The Works of John Owen, ed. by William H. Goold, New York: Robert Carter, 1851-1853. See especially Sermon on 2 Peter iii. 11
1790: Gilpin - An Exposition of the New Testament, Intended as an Introduction to the Study of the Scriptures, by Pointing Out the Leading Sense and Connection of the Sacred Writers Jesus, having thus silenced the chief priests, continued the subject, by setting before them, in the audience of the people, their hardened, impenitent and dangerous state, the ungrateful returns which the Jews had made to God, for all his calls of mercy, and, finally, God's intention of casting them off, and adopting the Gentiles in their room"
1827: American Sunday School Union Destruction of Jerusalem, Abridged from the History of the Jewish Wars, by Josephus - together with Sketches of the History of the Jews, since their dispersion - "Many learned commentators on the Scriptures have remarked, regarding the writings of Josephus, that his history is so perfect a delineation of certain passages of the Bible, and particularly those two verses in the twenty-fourth chapter of St. Matthew, -- "For there shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no nor ever shall be. And except these days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved," &c. -- that they are not only the exact counterparts of each other, but seem almost as if they had been written by the same person (Newton). Yet Josephus was not born till after our Saviour's crucifixion; he was not a Christian, but a Jew, and certainly never meant to give any testimony to the truth of the Christian religion."
1840: "A Gentleman" The Destruction of Jerusalem "Before Jerusalem he stands, And down his cheeks roll many a tear; See how He spreads his sacred hands, While He predicts its ruin near. "The days shall come, they're near at hand !! "When might armies shall surround "This favour'd spot where now I stand, "And lay your City with the ground. "Your measure's nearly full ! alas !! "Your sinful course is almost run ; "This generation shall not pass* "Till all the dreadful work is done."
1858: David Brown: Christ's Second Coming, Will it be Pre-millennial? That those words point ultimately to the personal advent of Christ and the final judgment, I have not the least doubt. But the first question ought to be, What is the direct and primary sense of the prophecy? Those who have not directed their attention to prophetic language will be startled if I answer, The coming of the Lord here announced is his coming in judgment against Jerusalem"
1870: The Fall of Jerusalem and the Roman Conquest of Judea "It was while gazing on this magnificent city that our Lord delivered his solemn prophecy of its approaching downfall."
1861: Francis Bodfield Hooper - The Revelation of Jesus Christ By John | Volume Two (PDFs) Seems like an important preteristic commentary on the Apocalypse of John. If you think so, please send an email of explanation.
1921: David S. Clark - The Message From Patmos: A Postmillennial Commentary on the Book of Revelation (1921 PDF) "This early twentieth-century Postmillennial commentary on the Book of Revelation, written by the father of theologian Gordon Clark, offers an easy-to-read alternative to the popular Pre-millennial/Dispensational views of the best-selling Scofield Reference Bible and a multitude of other dissertations on end-time prophecy that litter the shelves of the average Christian bookstores.

1871: Henry Cowles - The Revelation of John : With Notes "it is simply impossible to make any thing else of the first beast save the Roman Empire--the civil power of the Roman Emperors; while the second beast), from the further description of him which appears in chap. 16: 13, 14, and in 19: 20--" the false prophet that wrought miracles before him" [the first beast] "with which he deceived them that had the mark of the beast, etc., we must interpret to be the Pagan Priesthood"
1871: R.W. Dale - The Jewish Temple and the Christian Church - A Series of Discourses on the Epistle to the Hebrews (1871 PDF) "The end of all things is at hand." "His voice then shook the earth, but now hath He promised, saying, yet once more I shake not the earth only but also heaven." In His last revelation to mankind, God's purposes are reaching their perfect accomplishment. Empires which had overshadowed the whole earth had decayed and perished. The institutions and laws which God Himself had originally established, the temple He had consecrated, the priests He had anointed, were now ready to vanish away."
1873: Ernest Renan - L'Antechrist The Period from the Arrival of Paul in Rome to the End of the Jewish Revolution "Now every advantage gained over a religion is useless if it be not replaced by another, satisfying, at least as well as it can, the needs of the heart. Jerusalem will be avenged for her defeat. She shall conquer Rome by Christianity, Persia by Islamism, shall destroy the old fatherland, and shall become for all higher minds the city of the heart." (pp. 271,272)
1883: Milton S. Terry - Biblical Hermeneutics "My purpose is to write a comprehensive and readable book, adapted to serve as a suggestive help toward the proper understanding of those scriptures which are regarded as peculiarly obscure"
1887: R.W. Dale - The Past Second Advent: The Coming of Christ (PDF HERE) "The Unseen King of men is near, and nearer than we know ; and if we listen to the voice of those that call us to His feet, the vision of Christ when it suddenly comes at a moment we look not for it. — Christ, King, and Judge, sitting on the clouds of heaven with power and with great glory — will occasion no mourning to us. It will be the fulfilment of all our most passionate hopes and the beginning of our eternal blessedness. What lies beyond we cannot tell. There are intimations in Holy Scripture elsewhere that the presence and glory of Christ in the invisible and eternal world, where He has ascended His throne as King and Judge of all, will, at last, after He has gathered through age after age His elect to Himself, break through even into the material order, and the last generation of mankind will suddenly pass into His presence."

This part of the case is perfectly free from doubt."

Nir, Rivka The Destruction of Jerusalem and the Idea of Redemption in the "Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch" "The Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch is a pseudepigraphic apocalyptic work ascribed to Baruch, son of Neriah and the scribe of Jeremiah. Its overt content concerning the last days of the First Temple period disguises a description of the fall of the Second Temple in 70 C.E. Contrary to the general scholarly view, this book attempts to show that the internal structure and central ideas of 2 Baruch must be understood in a Christian context. This theological identity is reflected mainly in traditions which describe the destruction of Jerusalem and the three apocalyptic visions which depict the coming of the Messiah and the eschatological redemption. These two main themes, which stood at the very core of the dispute between Judaism and Christianity and clearly reflect the basic differences in the outlooks of the two faiths, can be criteria to uncover the theological identity of the work. The author’s conclusion sheds light on the Christian character of other pseudepigraphic and apocalyptic books" (EJL 20 Society of Biblical Literature - SBL, viii + 318 pages, Paper, English, 2003).

Rayner, William, The Last Days (London - 1968) "This is the story of the fall of Jerusalem to the Romans and of their strange, empty victory at Masada, the last remaining strong-hold of the Jews. It is also the story of the increasing desperation of the Jews, their disillusion and despair when the expected climax of the Last Days fails to come and their faith in the Holy One is shaken. The story is woven from familiar Biblical writings and from events vouched for by historians, both Roman and Jewish, events since confirmed by the finding of archaeologists. The author has combined extensive research with a vivid, creative imagination to produce a book of religious, historical and dramatic interest mounting to the violent yet poignant finale."

Bentwich, Norman: Josephus (1914) "Yet did they occasion the fulfilment of prophecies relating to their country. For there was an ancient oracle that the city should be taken and the sanctuary burnt when sedition should affect the Jews." Josephus shares the pagan outlook of the Roman historian Tacitus, who is horrified at the Jewish disregard of the omens and portents which betokened the fall of their city, and speaks of them as a people prone to superstition (what we would call faith) and deaf to divine warnings (what we would call superstition). Josephus and his friends were looking for signs and prophecies of the ruin of the people as an excuse for surrender; the Zealots, men of sterner stuff and of fuller faith, were resolved to resist to the end, and would brook no parleying with the enemy."

On that day the Roman soldiers burned and destroyed the Temple at Jerusalem. on that day the Jewish soul was struck at its very core.. The history of the West is also tied to the event of the 9th of Ab, 70. In the destruction of the Temple, which Jesus had frequented, the first Christians saw the proof of the arrival of a new world.. Unlike other great events in Antiquity, and even in times nearer to our own, all the consequences of the battle and fall of Jerusalem have not yet run their course." (GOOGLE | FROOGLE)

Veronica Avenging of the Savior (8th C.)
"As Alvin E. Ford has pointed out, the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries were witness to a flurry of texts in the Vengeance of Our Lord tradition: "Verse versions, prose versions, chansons de geste, mystery plays, book-length documents and one-page résumés, all attest to the widespread diffusion of the apocryphal Vengeance of Our Lord throughout the medieval Christian world." Of Old and Middle French prose versions alone, Ford identifies fifty-four (and counting) manuscripts, "representing nine independent but interrelated traditions," the primary works being La Vengeance de Nostre-Seigneur and Roger d'Argenteuil's Bible en François.18 Wright, studying the representation of Jerusalem's destruction in medieval drama, comments (p. 1) on the surprising popularity of the story in drama during this same period:
From their first appearance in the mid-fourteenth century until as late as 1622, plays of the destruction of Jerusalem are known to have been performed in six different languages (German, French, Italian, Spanish, English, and Latin) to the delight of audiences in dozens of communities scattered across the Continent. Indeed, French performance records indicate that, over the course of more than two centuries, only the story of Christ's Passion was staged more frequently than the Vengeance of Our Lord. By the late sixteenth century, dramatizations of the siege of Jerusalem, most of which required from two to four days to perform, had spread from their earliest homes in Thuringia and Burgundy to the Tirol, Savoy, the Italian Briançonnais, Switzerland, England, and Castile.
Even within the relatively small corpus of late Middle English poetry, we have at least four extant poems that focus primarily on the Vengeance of Our Lord: the alliterative poem of Siege of Jerusalem here edited, two versions (one short, one long) of the rhyming-couplet Titus and Vespasian, and a translation of Roger d'Argenteuil's Bible en François.

PRE-70 DATE FOR BOOK OF REVELATION:
ADVOCATES FOR THE EARLY
DATING
OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION
A partial list of scholars who have supported the early date for Revelation, gleaned unsystematically from my reading, would include the following 18th and 19th writers not already mentioned just above: John Lightfoot, Harenberg, Hartwig, Michaelis, Tholuck, Clarke, Bishop Newton, James MacDonald, Gieseler, Tilloch, Bause, Zullig, Swegler, De Wett, Lucke, Bohmer, Hilgenfeld, Mommsen, Ewald, Neander, Volkmar, Renan, Credner, Kernkel, B. Weiss, Reuss, Thiersch, Bunsen, Stier, Auberlen, Maurice, Niermeyer, Desprez, Aube, Keim, De Pressence, Cowles, Scholten, Beck, Dusterdiek, Simcox, S. Davidson, Beyschlag, Salmon, Hausrath. Continuing on into the 20th century we could list Plummer, Selwyn, J.V. Bartlet, C.A. Scott, Erbes, Edmundson, Henderson, and others. If one's reading has been limited pretty much to the present and immediately preceding generations of writers on Revelation, then the foregoing names may be somewhat unfamiliar to him, but they were not unrecognized in previous eras. When we combine these names with the yet outstanding stature of Schaff, Terry, Lightfoot, Westcott, and Hort, we can feel the severity of Beckwith's understatement when in 1919 he described the Neronian dating for Revelation as "a view held by many down to recent times."[40] By many indeed! It has been described, as we saw above, as "the ruling view" of critics," by "the majority of modern critics," by "most modern scholars," and by "the whole force of modern criticism." The weight of scholarship placed behind the Neronian option for the dating of Revelation has been staggering. In our won day it has gained the support of such worthies as C.C. Torrey, J.A.T. Robinson, and F.F. Bruce and has been popularized by Jay Adams.[41] In 1956 Torrey could write about the number 666, "It is now the accepted conclusion that the beast is the emperor Nero."[42]" (Historical Setting for the Dating of Revelation)Greg Bahnsen (1984) "
