Temple Destruction and Other Signs

(Mark 13:1–8, Luke 21:5–9)

[As] Jesus left the temple [and] was walking away, His disciples came up to [Him] to point out [its] buildings.

2 

“vvv Do you see all these things?” vvv vvv Jesus replied“Truly I tell you, vvv not one stone here will be left on [another]; [every one] will be thrown down.”

3 

[While] [Jesus] was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him vvv privately.“Tell us,” they said,“when {will} these things happen, and what [will be] the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

4 

Jesus answered“See to it that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, claiming,‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many 6 You will hear[fn] of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it vvv that you are not alarmed. All [these things][fn] must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines, pestilences,[fn] and earthquakes in [various] places. 8 All these [are] [the] beginning of birth pains.
