Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 21:17

Luke 21:17. And ye shall be hated of all men— See on Matthew 10:22.—That not only the apostles, but all the primitive Christians, were in general more hated and persecuted than any other body of people, is most notorious to all who are acquainted with ecclesiastical history; a fact which might seem unaccountable, when we consider how inoffensive and benevolent their temper and conduct were, and how friendly an aspect their tenets had on the security of any government underwhich they lived.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 21:5-36

D. Jesus’ teaching about the destruction of the temple 21:5-36The emphasis in Luke’s version of this important discourse concerning the future, the Olivet Discourse, is a warning and an encouragement to persevere. Jesus gave this teaching so His disciples would be ready for the coming of the kingdom (cf. Luke 21:34-36). Luke had already reported much teaching about the future (Luke 12:35-48; Luke 17:20-37). However some lessons bore repetition, such as the place of signs in signaling the end... read more

They would also experience betrayal by close relatives and friends (cf. Mark 13:12). Some of them would die for their testimonies. Hatred would descend on many more than would die (cf. Mark 13:13). read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 21:1-38

The Widow’s Mite. Prophecy of the Fall of Jerusalem and the Second Advent1-4. The widow’s mite (Mark 12:41). See on Mk.5-36. Great prophecy of the Fall of Jerusalem and the Second Advent (Matthew 24:1; Mark 13:1). See on Mt. St. Luke distinguishes these two events more clearly than the other evangelists (Luke 21:24). He also describes Jerusalem as being ’surrounded by armies.’ This greater definiteness is held by some to indicate that St. Luke wrote after the fall of Jerusalem, and added... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 21:7-19

(7-19) Master, but when shall these things be?—See Notes on Matthew 24:3-14; Mark 13:3-13. St. Luke omits the Mount of Olives as being the scene of the question and the prophecy, and the names of the questioners, the latter being given by St. Mark only. The variations in the report throughout imply an independent source—probably oral—of information, as distinct from transcription either from one of the Gospels or from a document common to both of them. On the whole, he agrees much more with St.... read more

The Presence of Christ (For Advent) Luke 21:5-6 This discourse of our Lord is one of the most difficult for us to follow and apply, and yet it has made a vivid impression on the imagination of the world. Our Advent hymns and services are full of reminiscences of it, while, like so much else in Holy Scripture, it has suffered from an irreverent literalism which has at times imposed too great a strain on the imagination until faith has closed her wings and dropped heavily to the earth. The Day... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 21:1-38

THE WIDOW'S TWO MITES (vs.1-4) The first four verses are a continuation of the sublect of Chapter 20. If the scribes had no regard for widows, God takes full account of them. Rich men may donate large sums to the temple service and yet make no real sacrifice at all, however much it may impress others. The Lord of glory sees and discerns the motives of every heart as well as the actual gifts given. The poor widow, putting in only two mites, is commended above all the rich men, for she gave... read more
