1 As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.
2 “Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
Focused Passage
Matthew 24:1-2
The Olivet Discourse: Temple Desolation, Coming Judgment, the Son of Man, and Watchful Readiness
Matthew 24 moves from Jesus leaving the temple to predicting its destruction, from the disciples’ question to warnings against deception, from global upheaval to persecution and gospel mission, from the abomination of desolation to urgent flight and great distress, from false messianic claims to the visible coming of the Son of Man, from fig tree signs to the certainty of Jesus’ words, from unknown timing to Noah-like suddenness, and finally from watchfulness to faithful household stewardship.
