Luke 21:7

7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when will these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?

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 And as some spoke of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones, and gifts, he said,

6 [As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.

7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when will these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?

8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many will come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: therefore go ye not after them.

9 But when ye shall hear of wars, and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass: but the end [is] not immediately.
