Luke 21:6

6 "As for these things you are looking at, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another. Every stone will be thrown down."

Luke 21:6 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:6

As for these things which ye behold
Some, as the Syriac and Ethiopic versions, read these words by way of interrogation; "are these the things which ye behold?" do ye look upon these with wonder and delight? the days will come;
and they are hastening on; a little while, a few years more: in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that
shall not be thrown down; (See Gill on Matthew 24:2).

Luke 21:6 In-Context

4 They gave only what they did not need. This woman is very poor, but she gave all she had to live on."
5 Some people were talking about the Temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts offered to God. But Jesus said,
6 "As for these things you are looking at, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another. Every stone will be thrown down."
7 They asked Jesus, "Teacher, when will these things happen? What will be the sign that they are about to take place?"
8 Jesus said, "Be careful so you are not fooled. Many people will come in my name, saying, 'I am the One' and, 'The time has come!' But don't follow them.
