Luke 21:7

7 And they said to him, Master, when will these things be? and what sign will there be when these events are to take place?

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 And some were talking about the Temple, how it was made fair with beautiful stones and with offerings, but he said,

6 As for these things which you see, the days will come when not one stone will be resting on another, but all will be broken down.

7 And they said to him, Master, when will these things be? and what sign will there be when these events are to take place?

8 And he said, Take care that you are not tricked: for a number of people will come in my name, saying, I am he; and, The time is near: do not go after them.

9 And when news of wars and troubled times comes to your ears, have no fear; for these things have to be, but the end will not be now.
