And Jesus answering said unto him,
See these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
All Commentaries on Mark 13:2 Go To Mark 13
Theophylact of Ochrid
AD 1107
For, since the Lord had spoken much concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, His disciples wondered, that such numerous and beautiful buildings were to be destroyed; and this is the reason why they point out the beauty of the temple, and He answers not only that they were to be destroyed, but also that one stone should not be left uponanother.Wherefore it goes on: “And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”
