Notes

Luke 21:18–19

not even a hair of your head will perish: This expression means complete protection (1 Samuel 14:45; 2 Samuel 14:11; 1 Kings 1:52; Daniel 3:27). Here, it refers to the disciples' souls, because some would be killed because of their faith (Luke 21:16).

Luke 21:12–19

they will seize you and persecute you: Jesus described the persecution his followers would experience (see also Matthew 10:17–22; Mark 13:9). Jewish writings from the time of Jesus also described a period of great hardship before God's final salvation would arrive.

Luke 21:5–38

When Jesus predicted the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem, his disciples asked when it would happen and what signs would accompany it (21:6,7). Jesus responded by describing the events surrounding the destruction of the temple and the return of the Son of Man (21:8–36). This sermon is known as the Olivet Discourse because the Mount of Olives was where Jesus taught (see Matthew 24:3; Mark 13:3).
