Mark 13:30 as follows translates the Greek: παρέλθῃ ἡ '''γενεὰ''' αὕτη μέχρις

<br>NAS: to you, this '''generation''' will not pass away

But "generation" in modern English means merely a few decades until the next generation of children are born.  Most likely [[Jesus]] was not referring to the time period for children here, as he and his Apostles did not have children.  Instead, the term should probably be translated as "era".
