Matthew 24:1-2 - The Destruction Of The Temple Predicted

¹ Jesus left the temple area and was going on His way when His disciples came up to Him to call His attention to the [magnificent and massive] buildings of the temple. ² And He said to them, “Do you see all these things? I assure you and most solemnly say to you, not one stone here will be left on another, which will not be torn down.”

¹ As He was coming out of the temple [grounds], one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, look what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!”

² Jesus replied to him, “You see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left on another which will not be torn down!”

⁵ As some were talking about the temple, that it was decorated with beautiful stones and consecrated offerings [of magnificent gifts of gold which were displayed on the walls and hung in the porticoes], He said, ⁶ “As for all these things which you see, the time will come when there will not be one stone left on another that will not be torn down.”
