Luke 21:7 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:7

And they asked him
That is, his disciples, when they were come to the Mount of Olives, and as he sat upon that, ( Matthew 24:3 ) saying, master, but when shall these things be?
when the temple shall be destroyed; and one stone shall not be left upon another; and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to
pass?
which shows that this refers to the destruction of the temple, and so the signs following; (See Gill on Matthew 24:3).

Luke 21:7 In-Context

5 One day people were standing around talking about the Temple, remarking how beautiful it was, the splendor of its stonework and memorial gifts. Jesus said,

6 "All this you're admiring so much - the time is coming when every stone in that building will end up in a heap of rubble."

7 They asked him, "Teacher, when is this going to happen? What clue will we get that it's about to take place?"

8 He said, "Watch out for the doomsday deceivers. Many leaders are going to show up with forged identities claiming, 'I'm the One,' or, 'The end is near.' Don't fall for any of that.

9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, keep your head and don't panic. This is routine history and no sign of the end."
