We can be sure that all four primary gospels were written before 70 C.E, 
because Jesus' prophecies concerning the fall of Jerusalem and the 
temple were vague, shifty, evasive and unfalsifiable, even though it was 
obvious at the time that the wind was blowing towards suicidal and self 
destructive war with the Roman empire

Had they been written up after the fall of Jerusalem, they would have 
been remembered as much more specific concrete, and detailed.

Shortly before the fall of Jerusalem, Christians did get specific and 
concrete prophecies about the fall (but by that time you did not have to 
be a weatherman to see which way the wind was blowing) and those more 
concrete prophecies were not misattributed to Jesus.
