Which scholars?
Herman Detering for one, who in the article I am linking shows how the Olivet Discourse can be dated to the time of the Bar Kochba revolt.

Isn't he a pastor?
Also thanks. I'll save that for a future read. I was not aware of many who favored such a late date for that book...the other books in the NT of course, they have a large number of scholars who prefer the 2nd century completion dates.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
