EndtimesDeut32/70AD

I found a connection between Peters statements in chapter 3 about the elements melting with heat and Moses prophecy of the last generation of the mosaic covenant [Deut 32] of 30-70 AD.
In referring to those first century jews who disbelieved in the coming of Christ and persisted in the Mosaic covenant after the cross and indwelling of the spirit.. it was written and prophesied in Deut 32..
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
17They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
See also Isaiah 66 where to sacrifice a lamb [after the cross] is as if to cut of the neck of a family dog. Compare with verse 17 below.18Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
19And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
20And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith. 21They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
22For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
23I will heap mischief upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
24They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
Deut 32 is the mother of the latter days, time of the end, and latter end prophecies which all referred to the end of the mosaic covenant.
The "mountains" of vs 22 are the collection of ordinances and practices that came from there. They represent the law of Moses and the "foundations" refer to the basic principles and "elements" of that contract and law....
Here in verse 22 above, the mosaic covenant land area of Israel is referred to as 'the earth' and is the domain to which the temporal, conditional mosaic covenant and it's blessings applied.
We now turn to 2 Peter 3: as written to a first century; pre-desolation, primarily Jewish believing audience living in Jerusalem, and Judea and still within the last generation of the mosaic covenant [Deut 32]
10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens [atmosphere of mosaic covenant laws] shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements [foundational principles of that covenant] shall melt with fervent heat, the earth [domain of Judea] also and the works [deeds of the law] that are therein shall be burned up.
11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, [revealing of the new covenant] wherein dwelleth righteousness.
It is as if Peter is quoting from that verse in Deut 32 or has this section in mind as he is writing.
Yet some people want God to destroy his good Creation, his world or still support or resurrect the elements of the mosaic covenant and Israel in preparation for 'end times'....
