Mark 13

Jesus delivers the Olivet Discourse, predicting the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple. He warns the disciples about the signs that will precede His second coming, including false Christs, wars, earthquakes, and persecution. Jesus emphasizes the need for endurance and vigilance, stating that no one knows the day or hour of His return, except the Father. He concludes with the parable of the watchman, urging His followers to "Stay awake" and be ready.
