24 As Jesus came out of the temple and was going away, his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the

  • temple. 2 Then he asked them,

“You see all these, do you not? Truly I tell you, not one stone will be left here upon another; all will be thrown down.”

15 “So when you see the

desolating sacrilege standing in the holy place, as was spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),16 then those in Judea must flee to the mountains; 13 As he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what large stones and what large buildings!” 2 Then Jesus asked him, “Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left here upon another; all will be thrown down.”

14 “But when you see the

desolating sacrilege set up where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then those in Judea must flee to the mountains.

LUKE 21

 20 “When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies,

then know that its desolation has come near. 21 Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains, and those inside the city must leave it, and those out in the country must not enter it; 22 for these are days of vengeance, as a fulfillment of all that is written. 23 Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress on the earth and wrath against this people; 24 they will fall by the edge of the sword and be taken away as captives among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

CONCLUDING THOUGHTS

 Matthew  God has revealed himself in a new way through the

Resurrection (earthquakes and lightning) like at Mt. Sinai.

 Unnamed mountain in Galilee for the resurrection

appearance/ great commission/ ascension.

 Luke  The risen Jesus meets us on the road, but his

presence is fleeting.

 The resurrection proves Jesus is the Messiah.  Both  They answer common doubts and objections.  Even the disciples doubted in the presence of the

risen Lord.
