The Watch Tower and Herald of Christ's Presence, “(article on the harvest continuing after 1914)”
“Incidentally we remark that some historians put the end of the Jewish Time of Trouble as April A.D. 73, which would correspond to April 1918. Are we regretful that the harvest work continues? Nay, verily”
Russell hedges on 1918 by parallel with A.D. 73, while saying 'we know of no time-limit here'.
