Mark 13:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:4

Tell us when shall these things be?
&c.] When the temple will be destroyed, and these fine buildings shall be demolished, and not one of these large stones shall be left upon another:

and what shall be the sign when all these things [shall be]
fulfilled?

Mark 13:4 In-Context

2 Jesus replied, “Yes, look at these great buildings. But they will be completely demolished. Not one stone will be left on top of another!”

3 Later, Jesus sat on the Mount of Olives across the valley from the Temple. Peter, James, John, and Andrew came to him privately and asked him,

4 “Tell us, when will all this happen? What sign will show us that these things are about to be fulfilled?”

5 Jesus replied, “Don’t let anyone mislead you,

6 for many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah.’ They will deceive many.
