Jesus implied that a sign of his coming will be the control of Jerusalem being handed back to the Jews. This happened in 1967.
"So they asked Him, saying, Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place? ...
But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near ...
And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled." - Luke 21:7-24 (see Roman 11:25)
Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70AD and was in the hands of the Gentiles until it was recaptured by Israel the Six Day War in 1967.
