1 Pogledavši pak gore vide bogate gde meću priloge svoje u haznu Božiju; 2 a vide i jednu siromašnu udovicu koja metaše onde dve lepte; 3 i reče: Zaista vam kažem: ova siromašna udovica metnu više od sviju: 4 Jer svi ovi metnuše u prilog Bogu od suviška svog, a ona od sirotinje svoje metnu svu hranu svoju što imaše. 5 I kad neki govorahu za crkvu da je ukrašena lepim kamenjem i zakladima, reče: 6 Doći će dani u koje od svega što vidite neće ostati ni kamen na kamenu koji se neće razmetnuti. 7 Zapitaše Ga pak govoreći: Učitelju! A kad će to biti? I kakav je znak kad će se to dogoditi? 8 A On reče: Čuvajte se da vas ne prevare, jer će mnogi doći na ime moje govoreći: Ja sam, i vreme se približi. Ne idite dakle za njima. 9 A kad čujete ratove i bune, ne plašite se; jer to sve treba najpre da bude; ali još nije tada posledak. 10 Tada im reče: Ustaće narod na narod i carstvo na carstvo; 11 i zemlja će se tresti vrlo po svetu, i biće gladi i pomori i strahote i veliki znaci biće na nebu. 12 A pre svega ovog metnuće na vas ruke svoje i goniće vas i predavati u zbornice i u tamnice; vodiće vas pred careve i kraljeve imena mog radi. 13 A to će vam se dogoditi za svedočanstvo. 14 Metnite dakle u srca svoja, da se pre ne pripravljate kako ćete odgovarati: 15 Jer ću vam ja dati usta i premudrost kojoj se neće moći protiviti ni odgovoriti svi vaši protivnici. 16 A predavaće vas i roditelji i braća i rođaci i prijatelji; i pobiće neke od vas. 17 I svi će omrznuti na vas imena mog radi. 18 I dlaka s glave vaše neće poginuti. 19 Trpljenjem svojim spasavajte duše svoje. 20 A kad vidite da Jerusalim opkoli vojska onda znajte da se približilo vreme da opusti. 21 Tada koji budu u Judeji neka beže u gore, i koji budu u gradu neka izlaze napolje; i koji su napolju neka ne ulaze u njega: 22 Jer su ovo dani osvete, da se izvrši sve što je napisano. 23 Ali teško trudnima i dojilicama u te dane! Jer će biti velika nevolja na zemlji, gnev na ovom narodu. 24 I pašće od oštrica mača, i odvešće se u ropstvo po svim narodima; i Jerusalim će gaziti neznabošci dok se ne izvrše vremena neznabožaca. 25 I biće znaci u suncu i u mesecu i u zvezdama; i ljudima na zemlji tuga od smetnje i od huke morske i valova. 26 Ljudi će umirati od straha i od čekanja onog što ide na zemlju; jer će se i sile nebeske pokrenuti. 27 I tada će ugledati Sina čovečijeg gde ide na oblacima sa silom i slavom velikom. 28 A kad se počne ovo zbivati, gledajte i podignite glave svoje; jer se približuje izbavljenje vaše. 29 I kaza im priču: Gledajte na smokvu i na sva drveta; 30 kad vidite da već poteraju, sami znate da je blizu leto. 31 Tako i vi kad vidite ovo da se zbiva, znajte da je blizu carstvo Božije. 32 Zaista vam kažem da ovaj naraštaj neće proći dok se ovo sve ne zbude. 33 Nebo i zemlja proći će, a reči moje neće proći. 34 Ali se čuvajte da kako vaša srca ne otežaju žderanjem i pijanstvom i brigama ovog sveta, i da vam ovaj dan ne dođe iznenada. 35 Jer će doći kao zamka na sve koji žive po svoj zemlji. 36 Stražite dakle jednako i molite se Bogu da biste se udostojili uteći od svega ovog što će se zbiti, i stati pred Sinom čovečijim. 37 I danju učaše u crkvi, a noću izlažaše i noćivaše na gori koja se zove maslinska. 38 I sav narod dolažaše izjutra k Njemu u crkvu da Ga slušaju.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… set aside all their possessions for the Lord's purposes, bestowing joyfully and freely not the less valuable portions of their property, since they have the hope of better things [hereafter]; as that poor widow acted who cast all her living into the treasury of God.
I hear the voice of my God commanding, let not "your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness." "Drunkenness," it is far from me; Thou wilt have mercy, that it approach not near unto me.

And elsewhere indeed He saith, "I will give you a mouth and wisdom;" but here, "It is the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you," advancing them unto the dignity of the prophets.

These things have already come to pass; and again, And fearful sights from heaven, and mighty storms.

… continually upon every occasion, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day shall come upon you unawares; for as a snare shall it come upon all dwelling upon the face of the earth." "Let your loins, therefore, be girded about, and your lights burning, and ye like to …
