Luke 21:7

7 They asked Jesus, "Teacher, when will these things happen? What will be the sign that they are about 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 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.

9 When you hear about wars and riots, don't be afraid, because these things must happen first, but the end will come later."
