Contextual Overview
5 And as some were speaking about the temple, that it had been adorned with beautiful stones and gifts, He said, 6 As to these things that you see, days will come in which a stone will not be left on a stone, which will not be thrown down. 7 And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, then when will these things be? And what will be the sign when these things are about to happen? 8 And He said, Watch that you not be led astray. For many will come on My name, saying, I AM! Also, The time has come! Do not go after them. 9 And when you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be afraid. For these things must first occur, but the end is not at once. 10 Then He said to them, Nation will be lifted up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 Also there will be great earthquakes from place to place, and famines, and plagues. And also there will be terrors and great signs from Heaven. 12 But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you, and will persecute you , delivering you into the synagogues and prisons, being led away before kings and governors on account of My name. 13 But it will return to you for a testimony. 14 Then put into your hearts not to premeditate to make a defense.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And as some spake of the temple,.... These were the disciples; Mark says, one of them; but it seems there were more than one; one might begin the discourse, and others join him:
how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts;
:-.
he said; what follows. This was as he went out of the temple.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Goodly stones - Beautiful stones. Either referring to the large, square, and well-finished stones of which the eastern wall was built, or to the precious stones which might have been used in decorating the temple itself. See the notes at Mark 13:1.
Gifts - This word properly denotes anything devoted or dedicated to God. Anciently warriors dedicated to their gods the spoils of war - the shields, and helmets, and armor, and garments of those slain in battle. These were suspended in the temples. It would seem that something of this kind had occurred in the temple of Jerusalem, and that the people, to express their gratitude to God, had suspended on the pillars and perches of the temple gifts and offerings. Josephus mentions particularly a golden “vine” with which Herod the Great had adorned the columns of the temple (“Antiq.” xiii. 8). See also 2 Macc. 5:16; 9:16.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 21:5. Goodly stones — Or, costly stones. It has been thought by some that this relates not so much to the stones of which the temple was built, as to the precious stones with which it was decorated. For an account of the stones of the temple, Mark 13:1; Mark 13:1.
And gifts — Or, consecrated things, αναθημασι. αναθημα properly signifies a thing consecrated to sacred uses: αναθεμα signifies a thing devoted to a curse, or to destruction. They both come from the same root, ανατιθημι, I lay up, separate; and though two meanings cannot be more opposite than those assigned to these words, yet in the words themselves a short vowel (ε) in the place of a long one (η) makes all the difference between blessing and cursing.
