  When exactly is the end?

  "Look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things." Matt 28:20

  24 Next, the end, when he hands over the kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power. 25 For he must rule as king until [God] has put all enemies under his feet. 26 As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing. 27 For [God] “subjected all things under his feet.” But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that it is with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone. 1Cor15:24-28

  Purps: "When exactly is the end?"

  Soon. It's always ending soon.

  So, what exactly does "soon" mean?

  I was the temporary end to Jehovah's rule among his people, according to JWs it goes to the dream of the tree being cut down and banded, meaning the temporary end to gods rule on earth and the times of the gentiles.

  No one knows when the end will come, and anyone whom tries to predict it is a false prophet.

  'At 70 CE what system of things ended?'

  The jewish one, you silly. Jesus was a jew, for jews, against jewish rulers, collecting jewish groupies, etc, etc. Although, there is the belief that jesus actually plotted to overthrow the romans from jerusalem (israel?). Mt28 works well w that belief, jesus was supporting his groupies until they overthrew the romans.
