a generation of time of forty years or so,

一代人的时间不是40年这样子
it means they're a race of the Jews.

而是犹太种族
As long as there are Jews in existence then

只要犹太人仍然存在
this thing can still go on and it hasn't happened yet,

这些事就会继续目前还未发生
so that explains the translation.

这就是对翻译的解释
Quite frankly, I think the translation's just wrong.

说实话我觉得那翻译[种族]是错的
It seems to me that what Mark's intention is to

在我看来马可的意图是
put some kind of time limit on this.

确定一个时间限制
He's trying to get his readers to see a time.

他想让他的读者看到一个时间
Well if you just say the race of the Jews,

如果你只是说犹太种族
then that doesn't give you any sense of time.

就没有任何时间感
Did you have a question?

有问题吗
