Luke 21:22 In-Context

20 "When you see armies all around Jerusalem, you will know it will soon be destroyed.
21 At that time, the people in Judea should run away to the mountains. The people in Jerusalem must get out, and those who are near the city should not go in.
22 These are the days of punishment to bring about all that is written in the Scriptures.
23 How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or have nursing babies! Great trouble will come upon this land, and God will be angry with these people.
24 They will be killed by the sword and taken as prisoners to all nations. Jerusalem will be crushed by non-Jewish people until their time is over.
