Mark 13:30 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:30

Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass,
&c.] Not the generation of men, in general, or Jews in particular, nor of Christians; but that present generation of men, they should not all go off the stage of life,

till all these things be done;
which were now predicted by Christ, concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, the signs of it, and what, should immediately follow upon it; (See Gill on Matthew 24:34).

Mark 13:30 In-Context

28 But of the fig tree learn ye the parable [Forsooth of the fig tree learn ye a parable]. When now his branch is tender, and leaves be sprung out, ye know that summer is nigh.
29 So [and] when ye [shall] see these things be done, know ye, that it is nigh in the doors.
30 Truly I say to you, that this generation shall not pass away, till all these things be done.
31 Heaven and earth shall pass, but my words shall not pass.
32 But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
