Jesus told his disciples about the suffering that would come when Jerusalem was about to be destroyed.

Matthew 24:15-22

15 “But before the world ends, the disgusting person who will defile the holy Temple and cause people to abandon it will stand in the Temple. Daniel the prophet spoke and wrote about that long ago. May everyone who reads this pay attention to the following warning from me: 16 When you see that happen in the Temple, those of you who are in Judea district must flee to the higher hills! 17 Those who are outside their houses must not go back into their houses to get things before they flee. 18 Those who are working in a field should not turn back to get their outer clothing before they flee. 19 I feel very sorry for women who will be pregnant and women who will be nursing their babies in those days, because it will be very difficult for them to run away 20 Pray that you will not have to flee ◄in the winter/in the rainy season► when it will be hard to travel. People who think that God never allows anyone to do any work on our day of rest will not help you as you flee, so pray also that you will not have to flee on such a day, 21 because people will suffer very severely when those things happen. People have never suffered that severely since God created the world until now, and no one will ever suffer like that again. 22 If God had not decided to shorten that time [MTY] when people will suffer so much, everyone [LIT] would die. But he has decided to shorten it because he is concerned about the people whom he has chosen.”
