Luke 21:5-6
And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,…


1. That sin has laid the foundation of ruin in the most flourishing cities and kingdoms; Jerusalem, the glory of the world, is here by sin threatened to be made a desolation.

2. "That the threatenings of God are to be feared, and shalt be fulfilled, whatever appearing improbabilities there may be to the contrary. It is neither the temple's strength, nor beauty, that can oppose or withstand God's power.

(W. Burkitt.)
