15 The one yet upon the house top no let him be coming down! into the house
neither let him enter! to pick up anything out of his house;

Eze 7:15
The sword is outside, And the pestilence and famine within.
Whoever is in the field Will die by the sword; And whoever is in the city, famine and pestilence will devour him.

Jer 38:2
“Thus says the LORD: ‘He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; but he who goes over to the Chaldeans shall live; his life shall be as a prize to him, and he shall live.'[fn]

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

John of Gischala, who headed one of the factions, burnt storehouses full of provisions. Thus they cut the very sinews of their own strength.

At this critical and alarming conjuncture, intelligence arrived that the Roman army was approaching the city. The Jews were petrified with astonishment and fear ; there was no time for counsel, no hope of pacification, no means of flight:-- all was wild disorder and perplexity :- nothing was to be heard but "the confused noise of the warrior, " -- nothing to be seen but garments rolled in blood," -- nothing to be expected from the Romans but signal and exemplary vengeance. A ceaseless cry of combatants was heard day and night, and yet the lamentations of mourners were still more dreadful.
The consternation and terror which now prevailed induced many inhabitants to desire that a foreign foe might come, and effect their deliverance. Such was the horrible condition of the place when Titus and his army presented themselves, and encamped before Jerusalem ; but, alas ! not to deliver it from its miseries but to fulfill the prediction, and vindicate the benevolent warning of our Lord : "When ye see (he had said to his disciples) the abomination of desolation, spoken or by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place, [11] and Jerusalem surrounded by armies (or camps,) then let those who are in the midst of Jerusalem depart, and let not those who are in the country enter into her," for " then know that the desolation thereof is nigh." Matt. xxiv. 15, 21 ; Luke xxi. 20, 1-11.

=========
Repeated in Luk 23. "Daughters of Jerusalem" is only mentioned in 1 verse of the NT and this is an ominous prophecy of the pending 70ad siege and destruction of Jerusalem upon Judea and the Jews.
Unfortunately, instead of just the corrupt murderous Judean Rulers and Priests suffering, it was also the women and children that bore the brunt of that horrific event.

Luk 23:29
for behold! days do come, in which they shall say, 'Happy the barren, and wombs that did not bare, and paps that did not give suck'; [Revelation 6:16]

Both denari and famine are shown in Revelation:

There are a few OT verses that prophesy this against Jerusalem. There were 2 sieges. One against Solomon's Temple by the Babylonians and the one against Herod's Temple in 70ad......

Jeremiah 19:9 “And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and everyone shall eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and in the desperation with which their enemies and those who seek their lives shall drive them to despair.” '
Ezekiel 4:2 “Lay siege against it, build a siege wall against it, and heap up a mound against it; set camps against it also, and place battering rams against it all around

Josephus gives a detain description on what was happening both before, during and after Jerusalem's utter destruction:

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

www.bible.ca

The day on which Titus encompassed Jerusalem, was the feast of the Passover ; and it is deserving of the very particular attention of the reader, that this was the anniversary of that memorable period in which the Jews crucified their Messiah !.........................

................Meanwhile the horrors of famine grew still more melancholy and afflictive.
The Jews, for of food were at length compelled to eat their belts, their sandals, the skins of their shields, dried grass, and even the ordure of oxen. In the depth or this horrible extremity, a Jewess of noble family urged by the intolerable cravings of hunger, slew her infant child, and prepared it for a meal ; and had actually eaten one half thereof, when the soldiers, allured by tile smell of food, threatened her with instant death if she refused to discover it. 'Intimidated by this menace, she immediately produced the remains of her son, which petrified them with horror.
At the recital of this melancholy and affecting occurrence, the whole city stood aghast, and poured forth their congratulations on those whom death had hurried away from such heartrending scenes [Revelation 9:6]. ..............
==================
I believe it is 1st century Jerusalem shown as that great City in Revelation 18, 19 and this verse depicts that siege in 70ad

Revelation 9:6
And in those days the men shall be seeking the death, and not no shall be finding it;
and shall be desiring/yearning<1937> to be dying, and the death is fleeing from them.

Mark leaves out "sabbath"
It appears that Luke doesn't mention this in his Gospel.

Matthew 24:20
and pray ye that your flight may not be in winter<5494>( For the inclemency of the season, the badness of the roads, the shortness of the days, will all be great impediments to your flight) nor on a sabbath ( when religious scruples might delay the flight. The extent of a Sabbath day’s journey was 2000 cubits. Here, however, the question meets us, how far Jewish observances would affect the Christians)

Mark 13:18

Matthew has "great tribulation and beginning of world"
Mark has "tribulation and creation of world"
Luke never mentions tribulation or creation,

Daniel 11:1 uses "Nation" [Deu 14:2]

Matthew 24:21

While looking back thru this thread, I realized I had left out Matt 24:2.
So before I go any further, I would like to add it here.
I apologize for that.
===================

Matthew 24:2
And Jesus said to them, “ are ye not seeing all these?
Amen I am saying to ye,
not no may be being left here stone upon stone, which not shall be being thrown-down<2647>.”

Mark 13:2
And Jesus answering said to him, “thou are beholding these, the great buildings.
Not no may be being left here stone upon stone which not no may be being thrown-down<2647>

Luke 21:6
“These which ye are beholding.
Shall be coming days in which not shall be being left stone upon stone here which not shall be being thrown-down<2647>
[Luke 19:44]
================================================
It is also repeated in Luke 19:43 concerning the destruction of Jerusalem.
I reread this chapter and saw Jesus mention something interesting concerning the stones "crying out". I found an interesting vid on that.

Luke 19:

41 And as He nears, beholding the City, and He laments on Her, 42 saying, "That if Thou knew and Thou, even indeed in this day, the toward peace of Thee, now yet it was hid from Thy eyes.
43 That shall be arriving days upon Thee, and Thy enemies shall be casting up a rampart/siege-work to Thee and shall be encompassing Thee, and pressing Thee from-every-side. 44 And shall be leveling Thee and Thy offspring in Thee,
and not shall be leaving stone upon stone in Thee, stead which not Thou knew the season of the visitation<1984> of Thee".
========================
The stones will cry out. Explained like you've never heard it before

 

[GodIsMySavior]

Matthew 24:22
And if those days not shortened<2856>, not ever was saved all flesh.
Yet because of the chosen/elect<1588>, shall those days be being shortened.

Mark 13:20
and if the Lord not shorten the days, not ever was saved all flesh,
but because of the chosen/elect, whom He chooses, He shortens the days.

The only verse I feel would come closest to defining which days are being spoken of would be Luke 21:22 concerning the 3 and half yrs of the Jewish wars culminating in the 70ad destruction of Jerusalem

Luk 21:22 - “For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

====================================
Pulpit Commentary
Verse 22. - Except these days should be shortened (ἐκολοβώθησαν, had been shortened). In the midst of wrath God thinks on mercy. He providentially ordained that the days of vengeance should not be indefinitely prolonged; the siege was practically of short duration, the country was not wholly overrun and desolated (comp. 2 Kings 13:23). The natural causes that combined to produce this shortening of the siege have been recounted by commentators. These were - the divided counsels of the Jews themselves, the voluntary surrender of parts of the fortifications, the fierce factions in the city, the destruction of magazines of provisions by calamitous fire, the suddenness of the arrival of Titus, and the fact that the walls had never been strengthened, as Herod Agrippa had intended. There should no flesh be saved; i.e. the whole Jewish nation would have been annihilated. For the elect's sake....................................

According to Josephus, the siege lasted about 5 months. That length of time is also mentioned in Revelation 6:5-10

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

The vial of divine wrath, which had been so long pouring out upon this devoted city was now emptying, and JERUSALEM, once "a praise in all the earth," and the subject of a thousand prophecies, deprived of' the staff of life, wrapt in flames, and bleeding on every side sunk into utter ruin and desolation. This memorable siege terminated on the eighth day of the ninth month, A. D. 70 : its duration was nearly five months, the Romans having invested the city on the fourteenth day of the fourth month, preceeding. [Rev 9:10] ..........................................

Josephus is said to have spoken this after conquering Jerusalem:

..................Before their final demolition, however, Titus took, a. survey of the city and its fortifications ; and, while contemplating their impregnable strength, could not help ascribing his success to the peculiar interposition of the ALMIGHTY HIMSELF. "Had not God himself (exclaimed he) aided out operations, and driven the Jews from their fortresses, it would have been absolutely impossible to have taken them ; for what could men, and the force of engines, have done against such towers as these ?" After this he commanded that the city should be commanded razed to its foundations, excepting only the three lofty towers Hippocos, Phasael, and Mariamne, which he suffered to remain as evidences of its strength, and as trophies of his victory. There was left standing, also, a small part of the western wall; as a rampart for a garrison,....................

The plural form "false prophets" is used in only these 2 verses outside of the Gospels.

I would say these vss are referring to the time after Jesus' ascension leading up to the Jewish wars and finally 70ad Jerusalem.

2Pe 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.
1Jo 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
====================================
Josephus recorded there being false prophets among the Jews in the 1st century and listed one that was in Jerusalem during the siege of 70ad [tho there were many preceding that event during the Jewish rebellion against Rome]:

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

............. Amongst the tragical events which at this time occured, the following is more particularly deserving of notice : a false prophet, pretending to a divine commission, affirmed that, if the people would repair to the Temple, they should behold signs of their speedy deliverance. Accordingly about six thousand persons, chiefly women and children, assembled in a gallery, that was yet standing, on the outside of the building.

Whilst they waited in anxious expectation of the promised miracle, the Romans with the most wanton barbarity, set fire to the gallery ; from which, multitudes; rendered frantic by their horrible situation, precipitated themselves on the ruins below, and were killed by the fall : while, awful to relate, the rest, without a single exception, perished in the flames.
So necessary was our Lord's second premonition not to give credit to "false prophets," who should pretend "to shew great signs and wonders." In this last caution, as the connexion of the prophecy demonstrates, he evidently refers to the period of the siege, but in the former to the interval immediately preceeding the Jewish war. (Vide Matt. xxiv. Compare 5, and 23, 24, 25, 26, verses.
The Temple now presented little more than a heap of ruins ; and the Roman army as in triumph on the event, came and reared their ensigns against a fragment of the eastern gate, and, with sacrifices of thanksgiving, proclaimed the imperial majesty of Titus, with every possible demonstration of joy.
=======================
From another site I had bookmarked yrs back but has since gone into the abyss of the internet:

Book VI, Chapter V, Section 2 (Entire)
Concerning A False Prophet

A false prophet* was the occasion of these people's destruction, who had made a public proclamation in the city that very day, that God commanded them to get up upon the temple, and that there they should receive miraculous signs of their deliverance. Now, there was then a great number of false prophets suborned by the tyrants to impose upon the people, who denounced this to them, that they should wait for deliverance from God; and this was in order to keep them from deserting, and that they might be buoyed up above fear and care by such hopes. Now, a man that is in adversity does easily comply with such promises; for when such a seducer makes him believe that he shall be delivered from those miseries which oppress him, then it is that the patient is full of hopes of such deliverance .

Verse 26. - Wherefore if (ἐὰν οϋν, if therefore). The Lord proceeds to make the matter more plain by entering into details which the "here" and "there" of ver. 23 had not sufficiently denoted. He (Christ) is in the desert. If there was a partial fulfilment of this warning at the siege of Jerusalem, when some impostors tried to persuade the people that Messiah was in the wilderness, preparing to march to their relief, it is to have its chief accomplishment just before the final consummation. Go not forth. Be not deluded into following any local deceiver. The definite place of appearance proves its falsity (see ver. 27).
The secret chambers; in penetralibus (Vulgate). When Christ comes the second time, he will not come as at Bethlehem, in secret, in a corner. If any pretender should be announced under such conditions, they were to put no belief in him. These were simple tests which all could apply. To limit the Lord's appearance to particular persons or to a particular place, was to incur fatal error.

Son of man (Judaism) - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

"Son of man" is the translation of one Hebrew and one Aramaic phrase used in the Hebrew Bible. In Hebrew, the term is ben-adam, while in Aramaic its equivalent bar-adam is used. In post-biblical literature, the similar terms bar-anosh and bar-nasha also appear..
The Hebrew expression "son of man" (בן–אדם i.e. ben-'adam) appears one hundred and seven times in the Hebrew Bible.[1] This is the most common Hebrew construction for the singular, appearing 93 times in the Book of Ezekiel alone and 14 times elsewhere. In thirty two cases, the phrase appears in intermediate plural form "sons of men".[1] As generally interpreted by Jews, "son of man" denotes mankind generally in contrast to deity or godhead, with special reference to their weakness and frailty......

Last 2 verses used in OT:

Dan 7:13 I was seeing in the visions of the night, and lo, with the clouds of the heavens as a son of man was one coming, and unto the Ancient of Days he hath come, and before Him they have brought him near.

Josephus recounts the slaughter during the siege of 1st century Jerusalem

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

The three factions, rendered frantic by drunkenness, rage, and desperation, trampling on heaps of slain, fought against each other with brutal savageness and madness. Even such as brou't sacrifices to the temple were murdered. The dead bodies of priests and worshippers, both natives and foreigners were heaped together, and a lake of blood stagnated in the sacred courts. John of Gischala, who headed one of the factions, burnt storehouses full of provisions ; and Simon, his great antagonist, who headed another of them, soon afterwards followed his example. Thus they cut the very sinews of their own strength. At this critical and alarming c onjuncture, intelligence arrived that the Roman an army was approaching the city. ...............................

The day on which Titus encompassed Jerusalem, was the feast of the Passover................................
This dreadful scourge at length drove multitudes of the Jews out of the city into the enemy's camp, where the Romans crucified them in such numbers, that, as Josephus relates, space was wanted for the crosses, and crosses for the captives ; .................................

Titus and his officers were now compelled to retire, and none remained to check the fury of the soldiers or the flames. The Romans, exasperated to the highest pitch against the Jews, seized every person whom they could find, and, without the least regard to sex, .age or quality, first plundered and then slew them. The old and the young, the common people and the priests, those who surrendered and those who resisted, were equally involved in this horrible and indiscriminate carnage................................

Such as were in the towers, deemed impregnable to human force, beyond measure affrighted, strangely forsook them, and sought refuge in caverns and subterraneous passages ; in which dismal retreats no less than two thousand dead bodies were afterwards found. Thus, as our Lord had predicted, did these miserable creatures, in effect, say "to the mountains, 'Fall on us;' and to the rocks, ' Cover us." (Luke xxiii. 20.) ............................

Of the Jews destroyed during the siege, Josephus reckons not less than ONE MILLION AND ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND, to which must be added, above TWO-HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN THOUSAND who perished in other places, and innumerable multitudes who were swept away by famine, and pestilence, and of which no calculation could be made...........................

While looking back thru this thread, I realized I had left out Matt 24:2.
So before I go any further, I would like to add it here.
I apologize for that.

Matthew 24:2
And Jesus said to them, “ are ye not seeing all these?
Amen I am saying to ye,
not no may be being left here stone upon stone, which not shall be being thrown-down<2647>.”

Mark 13:2
And Jesus answering said to him, “thou are beholding these, the great buildings.
Not no may be being left here stone upon stone which not no may be being thrown-down<2647>

Luke 21:6
“These which ye are beholding.
Shall be coming days in which not shall be being left stone upon stone here which not shall be being thrown-down<2647>
[Luke 19:44]
================================================
It is also repeated in Luke 19:43 concerning the destruction of Jerusalem.
I reread this chapter and saw Jesus mention something interesting concerning the stones "crying out". I found an interesting vid on that.

Luke 19:

41 And as He nears, beholding the City, and He laments on Her, 42 saying, "That if Thou knew and Thou, even indeed in this day, the toward peace of Thee, now yet it was hid from Thy eyes.
43 That shall be arriving days upon Thee, and Thy enemies shall be casting up a rampart/siege-work to Thee and shall be encompassing Thee, and pressing Thee from-every-side. 44 And shall be leveling Thee and Thy offspring in Thee,
and not shall be leaving stone upon stone in Thee, stead which not Thou knew the season of the visitation<1984> of Thee".

The stones will cry out. Explained like you've never heard it before

Thank you for that response and it has inspired me. I hope this thread edifies others as it has me.

Now for the next verse, remembering that this is one continuing prophecy concerning 1st century Jerusalem, the Temple and Sanctuary as shown in Matt 24:3;

Matthew 24:3 Yet of Him sitting on the Mount of the Olives, the Disciples came toward to Him according to own saying "be telling to us! when shall these be being?and what the sign of Thy parousia<3952> and consummation<4930> of the Age?

1 of 3 verses from Daniel [who is mentioned by Jesus in only 2 verses of the NT]

Dan 7:2 Daniel spoke, saying, “I saw in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the Great Sea. [Revelation 7:1?]

Also shown in this verse concerning the "valley of bones" and the whole House of Israel:

Ezekiel 37:
9 And He saith unto me: 'Prophesy unto the Spirit, prophesy, son of adam, and thou hast said unto the Spirit: Thus said the Adonai Yahweh
From the four winds come in, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they do live.'
10 And I prophecy as He instructed and the spirit/breath is coming in them and they are living and are standing on their feet, a great army/host, great, exceedingly-exceedingly.
===========================
A similar scene is shown in Revelation 11 concerning the 2 witnesses:

Revelation 11:
11 And after the three and a half days a breath of life out of the God entered in them and they stand upon their feet and fear great fall upon the ones observing them.12 And they hear a Voice great out of the Heaven saying to them "ascend ye here!" And they ascended into the heaven in the cloud.

Jesus said this to His Disciples before ascending and the event of Pentecost: [perhaps I will start a thread on this awesome spiritual event]

Acts 1:8 But ye will shall be receiving power of coming of the Holy Spirit upon ye. And ye shall be being My witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and till end of the land/earth.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

32–35. The Parable of the Fig Tree

Mark 13:28-31; Luke 21:29-3332. learn a parable of the fig tree] More accurately, learn from the fig-tree its parable, the lesson that the fig-tree teaches. The parable relates to the siege of Jerusalem and the ruin of the Jewish nationality, illustrating Matthew 24:4-22.

It was spring time, and the fig tree was putting forth its leaf-buds; no more certainly does that natural sign foretell the coming harvest than the signs of Christ shall foretell the fall of the Holy City. The sequence of historical events is as certain as the sequence of natural events. And the first, at least to some extent, is within the range of the same human intelligence that discerns the promise of summer. Thus Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for not discerning the signs of the times as they discerned the face of the sky.

When his branch is yet tender] Translate, as soon as its branch becomes tender, i. e. ready to sprout. Observe his for the modern its.

ye know] Rather, recognise; as also in the following verse; in Matthew 24:36 a different Greek word is rightly translated knoweth.

that summer is nigh] Or, “that harvest time is nigh,” i. e. the cornharvest, not the fig-harvest (Meyer). This is a probable rendering, because the sprouting of the fig-tree would coincide with the barley harvest, rather than with the summer; it gives force to our Lord’s words, when it is remembered that the barley harvest was actually nigh; the omer, or first sheaf, being offered on the day following the Passover. Again, the siege of Jerusalem prefigured by this “parable” took place at the time of harvest (see note, Matthew 24:21).

There is still no break in the action as we continue with this 1st century Jerusalem/Temple discourse.

Luke uses "Kingdom of God" instead of "nigh at the doors", perhaps inferring that it was the Kingdom of God that was nigh at the doors?

James 5:8 shows both "parousia"[Matt 24] and "nigh".

The word for "nigh" is also shown in 2 verses of Revelation.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 33. - So likewise ye (οὕτω καὶ ὑμεῖς, so also ye, emphatic). As surely as buds and leaves prove the coming of summer, so ye, who have been taught, may gather from the fulfilment of the signs mentioned (vers. 15-22, etc.) the approach of the end. Know that it is near (ὅτι ἐγγύς ἐστιν). The subject is not expressed, but it must be the Son of man (ver. 30), so that the rendering ought to be, he is near. Many, however, take the understood nominative to be the judgment, or the kingdom of God, or the occurrences last spoken cf. At the doors; as James 5:9, on the very threshold, and therefore about to enter.

======================
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(33) So likewise ye.—The pronoun is emphatic. Ye whom I have chosen, who are therefore among the elect that shall be thus gathered. The words are spoken to the four Apostles as the representatives of the whole body of believers who should be living—first, at the destruction of Jerusalem, and afterwards at the end of the world. Of the four, St. John alone, so far as we know, survived the destruction of Jerusalem.
That it is near.—Better, that He is near, in accordance with James 5:9.

In these verses of Luke and Matt, it appears the full consummation of the age of Matt 24:3 would come upon those 1st century Jews to whom Jesus was addressing:

Mat 23:35 “that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth/land, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 “Assuredly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.
Luk 11:50 “that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation, 51 “from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah who perished between the altar and the temple. Yes, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.

There is only 1 other verse in the Bible that has "blood prophets" in it, and that is Revelation 18:24.......

The Phrase "heaven and earth passing away" is repeated in these verses of Matt and Luke, but it is concerning "the Law".
The question is which Law? Could that be the religion of OC Mosaic Judaism" of the 1st century Herod's Temple?

Mat 5:18 “For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the Law till all is fulfilled.

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

History records few events more generally interesting than the destruction of Jerusalem, and the subversion of the Jewish state, by the arms of the Romans. -- Their intimate connexion with the dissolution of the Levitical economy, and the establishment of Christianity in the world ....................

The Temple now presented little more than a heap of ruins................

For five days after the destruction of the Temple, the priests who had escaped, sat, pining with hunger, on the top of one of its broken walls; at length, they came down, and humbly asked the pardon of Titus, which, however, he refused to grant them, saying, that, "as the Temple, for the sake of which he would have spared them, was destroyed, it was but fit that its priests should perish also:" -whereupon he commanded that they should be put to death.....

================================
According to Mal 1, the Priesthood was cursed all the way thru to 1st century Herod's Temple and it's corrupt murderous Priesthood:

Malachi: 1 “And now this commandment is for you, O priests. 2 “If you do not listen, and if you do not take it to heart to give honor to My name,” says the LORD of hosts, “then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings; and indeed, I have cursed them already, because you are not taking it to heart. 3 “Behold, I am going to rebuke your offspring, and I will spread refuse on your faces, the refuse of your feasts; and you will be taken away with it.

Luke doesn't mention Matt 24:36 or Luke 13:32,
but he does mention Mark 13:33.

Matthew 24:36
About yet that day and hour, no one is aware,
neither the Messengers of the Heavens nor the Son except the Father only

Mark 13
32 And concerning that day or hour no one knows,
not even the Messengers, the ones in the Heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33 Be looking!<991>, be being vigilant<69> and be praying!
for you do not know when the time is.

Luke 21:36 Be ye vigilant!<991>, and be praying!
that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man."

Similar verses here in Luke

Mat 24:50 “the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of,
Luk 12:46 “the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

And this verse which shows that one never knows when ones' day is their last, including the 1st century Jews this was spoken to [which also applies to any believer or non believer]:
