Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.
Matthew 24:34
"This generation" refers to the generation that witnesses the tribulation and signs described in v29, not necessarily to the generation that was alive at the time Yeshua spoke these words nor to the generation alive at the time the state of Israel was re-established.
Every statement in every language must be interpreted by the hearer/reader in order to be understood. Our brains usually do this automatically within the context of our own knowledge, culture, and experience. The greater the difference in personal context between the speaker and hearer, the more complicated and deliberate the process becomes.
The more the hearer understands about the speaker's context, and the more the hearer can divorce his own interpretation from his own context, the more likely the hearer is to arrive at an accurate understanding of the speaker's intent.
If the communication is mediated by a third party, such as a translator or journalist, the complexity increases by an order of magnitude, because now the hearer must also account for the personal context and motivations of the mediator.
This is true of every communication in every conceivable medium.
In Matthew 24:15-22, Yeshua said that, when we see the Abomination of Desolation prophesied in Daniel 11:31, those in Judea should immediately flee to the mountains, that the greatest tribulation mankind has ever seen is about to begin. There are four general ways to interpret all Biblical prophecy, but IMO only one of them fits what Yeshua said in this chapter.

We are living in dark times. Churches are teaching anti-Christ doctrines, false prophets are multiplying, lawlessness is everywhere, and nobody seems to know what the Gospel is. Our job is to keep preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom (which might not be what you think!) and to persevere in faithful obedience until the end.
Matthew 24:3-14

Each person places their faith, trust and hope in our creator for different reasons. Some because they are able to see a Creator in all of creation, others because they know in their spirit that He continues to keep His promises. James 2:19 reminds us that even the demons believe, but they are afraid. Isaiah 43:10, “The LORD says, “You are my witnesses. You are the servant I chose. I chose you so you would know and believe me. I chose you so you would understand that I am the true God. There was no God before me, and there will be no God after me.” Everyone who trusts our Creator is a witness to His glory and each one is called to testify to the things they see.
