Contextual Overview

²⁸ And, from the fig-tree learn ye a simile. When its twigs are tender, and its leaves bud forth, ye know that summer approacheth. ²⁹ So also, when ye shall see these occurrences, know ye, that it is near, at the door. ³⁰ Verily I say to you, That this generation shall not pass away, until all these things occur. ³¹ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. ³² But of that day and that hour, knoweth no man; nor the angels of heaven; neither the Son, but the Father. ³³ Take heed, watch, and pray; for ye know not when the time is. ³⁴ For it is as a man, who took a journey, and left his home; and he gave authority to his servants, and to each his service; and he commanded the porter to be watchful. ³⁵ Watch ye, therefore; for ye know not when the lord of the house cometh; at evening, or at midnight, or at the cock-crowing, or in the morning: ³⁶ lest he come suddenly, and find you sleeping. ³⁷ And what I say to you, I say to you all: Be ye watchful.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass,.... Not the generation of men, in general, or Jews in particular, nor of Christians; but that present generation of men, they should not all go off the stage of life,

till all these things be done; which were now predicted by Christ, concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, the signs of it, and what, should immediately follow upon it; :-.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Mark 13:30. This generation — Ἡ γενεα αὑτη, This very race of men. It is certain that this word has two meanings in the Scriptures; that given in the text, and that above. Generation signifies a period of a certain number of years, sometimes more, sometimes less. In Deuteronomy 1:35; Deuteronomy 2:14, Moses uses the word to point out a term of thirty-eight years, which was precisely the number in the present case; for Jerusalem was destroyed about thirty-eight years after our Lord delivered this prediction. But as there are other events in this chapter, which certainly look beyond the destruction of Jerusalem, and which were to take place before the Jews should cease to be a distinct people, I should therefore prefer the translation given above. Matthew 24:34.
