Luke 21:37 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:37

And in the day time he was teaching in the temple
That is, Jesus, as the Persic version expresses it; his constant method every day, till the feast of passover came, was to go up to the temple, and there openly and freely preach the Gospel to the people, who resorted thither in great numbers, for that purpose: and at night he went out;
of the temple, and out of the city: and abode in the mount that is called the Mount of Olives;
very likely to pray, both for himself and for his disciples, his time with them being short.

Luke 21:37 In-Context

36 Therefore wake ye, praying in each time, that ye be had worthy to flee all these things that be to come [that ye be worthy to flee all these things that shall come], and to stand before man's Son.
37 And in days he was teaching in the temple, but in nights he went out, and dwelled in the mount, that is called of Olives.
38 And all the people rose early [And all the people hasted, or came early], to come to him in the temple, for to hear him.
