The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 21:1-38

How to Treat Commotion Luk 21:14-29 Jesus Christ is teaching us how to conduct ourselves in the midst of tremendous commotions. The chapter should be read from Luke 21:5-36 : within that space you hear thunder, and great winds blowing like tempests; you are made familiar with the shock of earthquake and the falling of things supposed to be immovable. There is in very deed what we have termed tremendous commotion, nation rising against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and great... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 21:5-7

And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said, As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass? This prophecy of the Lord Jesus, and the accomplishment of it, is most wonderful. The greatness of the building, and the huge... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 21:8-24

And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 21:8

In my name. They shall not say that they belong to me, or that I sent them: but they shall take to themselves my name, viz. Christ, or Messias, which title is incommunicable to any but myself. In effect, in less than two centuries, there appeared many false Christs and impostors, who pretended to be the one that was to come, the desired of nations. (Calmet) --- Perhaps this prophecy is yet to be more expressly fulfilled before the dissolution of the world. Many pious and learned Christians... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 21:11

Terrors from heaven. Josephus, in his history of this war, in which Jerusalem was destroyed by Titus, (lib. vii. chap. 12) relates, at length, many of the prodigies which were the forerunners of the dreadful end of this unfortunate city. During a whole year a meteor, like a flaming sword, was seen impending over the city. There were likewise seen in the air, appearances of chariots and numerous armies, which pressed one upon another. On the night of Pentecost, the priests, after a confused... read more

This verse is spoken to the apostles alone; and was verified, by most of them having been martyred and put to death, before the destruction of Jerusalem. (Calmet) read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 21:5-28

5-28 With much curiosity those about Christ ask as to the time when the great desolation should be. He answers with clearness and fulness, as far as was necessary to teach them their duty; for all knowledge is desirable as far as it is in order to practice. Though spiritual judgements are the most common in gospel times, yet God makes use of temporal judgments also. Christ tells them what hard things they should suffer for his name's sake, and encourages them to bear up under their trials, and... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 21:1-99

Luke 21 THEN HE LOOKED up, and here were some of these rich men ostentatiously casting their money into the temple treasury, and amongst them came a poor widow casting in her two mites. We must not allow the break of the chapters to divorce in our minds these opening verses from the closing two of Luke 20.0 . The widow was presumably one of those whose “house” had been devoured, yet instead of repining, she cast her last two mites into the temple treasury. Under these circumstances her gift... read more

The Destruction of Jerusalem and the End of the World. The beginning of the discourse: v. 5. And as some spake of the Temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, He said, v. 6. As for these things which ye behold, the days will come in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down. v. 7.
