Luke 21:37

Olivet

35 For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of all the earth.

36 So keep watch at all times, and pray that you may have the strength to escape all that is about to happen and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Every day Jesus taught at the temple, but every evening He went out to spend the night on the Mount of Olives.

38 And early in the morning all the people would come to hear Him at the temple.
