Mark 13:31

31 Heaven and eretz will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

Mark 13:31 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:31

Heaven and earth shall pass away
Which may be understood either affirmatively, as what will be at the second coming of Christ; or comparatively, rather than any thing said by Christ should; and so shows the certainty and irreversibleness of his predictions, as it follows:

but my words shall not pass away;
which is true of all the words of Christ he ever spake, and here particularly relates to those he had just delivered, concerning the calamities that should come upon the Jewish nation; (See Gill on Matthew 24:35).

29 even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.

30 Most assuredly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things are accomplished.

31 Heaven and eretz will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

32 But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, neither the Son, but only the Father.

33 Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don't know when the time is.
