The Widow’s Gift
1He21:1–4 Mk 12:41–44 looked up and saw the rich dropping their offerings into the temple treasury.21:1 2Kg 12:9; Mt 27:6; Jn 8:20
2He also saw a poor widow dropping in two tiny coins.21:2 Lit two lepta; the lepton was the smallest and least valuable Gk coin in use.21:2 Lk 12:59
4For all these people have put in gifts out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
Destruction of the Temple Predicted
5As21:5–38 Mt 24:1–51; Mk 13:1–37 some were talking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, he said,
Signs of the End of the Age
8Then he said, “Watch out that you are not deceived.21:8 Jr 29:8; Eph 5:6; 2Th 2:3 For many will come in my name,21:8 Jr 14:14; 1Jn 2:18 saying, ‘I am he,’21:8 Jn 8:24 and, ‘The time is near.’ Don’t follow them.21:8 Lk 17:23
9When you hear of wars and rebellions,21:9 Or insurrections, or revolutions, or chaos don’t be alarmed. Indeed, it is necessary that these things take place first, but the end won’t come right away.”
10Then he told them, “Nation will be raised up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.21:10 2Ch 15:6; Is 19:2
11There will be violent earthquakes,21:11 Is 29:6; Zch 14:5; Rv 6:12 and famines and plagues21:11 Rv 6:8 in various places, and there will be terrifying sights and great signs from heaven.21:11 Lk 11:16; 12:33
12But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you21:12–17 Mt 10:19–22; Mk 13:11–13 and persecute21:12 Ps 119:84 you. They will hand you over to the synagogues21:12 Ac 22:19; 26:11 and prisons,21:12 Ac 4:3; 5:18; 8:3; 12:4; 16:23 and you will be brought before kings and governors21:12 Ac 17:6; 18:12; 24:1,27; 25:6; 27:24; 2Co 11:23 because of my name.
14Therefore make up your minds21:14 Lit Therefore place (determine) in your hearts not to prepare your defense ahead of time,21:14 Lk 12:11
15for I will give you such words21:15 Ex 4:12 and a wisdom21:15 Ac 6:10 that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.21:15 Ac 4:14
The Destruction of Jerusalem
20
“When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies,
21:20
Lk 19:43
then recognize that its desolation21:20 Dn 9:27 has come near.
21Then those in Judea must flee21:21 Lk 17:31 to the mountains.21:21 Mt 4:8 Those inside the city must leave it, and those who are in the country must not enter it,
22because these are days of vengeance21:22 Is 34:8; 63:4; Dn 9:24–27; Hs 9:7; Lk 18:7–8 to fulfill all the things that are written.
23Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days,21:23 Lk 23:29 for there will be great distress in the land21:23 Or the earth and wrath against this people.
24They will be killed by the sword21:24 Lit will fall by the edge of the sword21:24 Heb 11:34 and be led captive into all the nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled by the Gentiles21:24 Or nations21:24 Ps 79:1; Is 63:18; Dn 8:13; Rv 11:2 until the times of the Gentiles21:24 Dn 12:7; Rm 11:25 are fulfilled.
The Coming of the Son of Man
25
“Then there will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars;
21:25
Is 13:10; 24:23; Ezk 32:7; Jl 2:10; 3:15; Ac 2:20; Rv 6:12–13
and there will be anguish on the earth among nations bewildered by the roaring of the sea and the waves.21:25 Ps 46:2–3; 65:7; Is 17:12; Jl 2:30–31
26People will faint from fear and expectation of the things that are coming on the world, because the powers of the heavens will be shaken.21:26 Is 34:4; Hg 2:6
The Parable of the Fig Tree
29Then he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees.
30As soon as they put out leaves you can see for yourselves and recognize that summer is already near.
31In the same way, when you see these things happening, recognize21:31 Or you know that the kingdom of God is near.
The Need for Watchfulness
34
“Be on your guard,
21:34
Lk 17:3
so that your minds are not dulled21:34 Lit your hearts are not weighed down from carousing,21:34 Or hangovers drunkenness,21:34 Rm 13:13 and worries of life,21:34 Mt 13:22; Mk 4:19; 1Th 5:6–7; 1Pt 4:7 or that day will come on you unexpectedly21:34 Lk 12:40; 1Th 5:3
35like a trap. For it will come on all who live on the face of the whole earth.
36But be alert at all times,21:36 Mt 25:13; 26:41; Mk 14:34–38; Lk 12:37; Ac 20:31; 1Co 16:13; Eph 6:18; 1Th 5:6; 1Pt 5:8 praying that you may have strength21:36 Other mss read you may be counted worthy to escape21:36 Rm 2:3; 1Th 5:3; Heb 2:3 all these things that are going to take place and to stand before the Son of Man.”
