Olivet Discourse: Comparing the Synoptic Gospels

August 2, 2022 by Krisan Marotta

Olivet Discourse: Comparing the Synoptics - Bible Study Tools | WednesdayintheWord.com

The Olivet Discourse is a conversation Jesus had with his disciples shortly before his crucifixion. As they sat on the Mount of Olives looking across at the temple, Jesus explained many things about the coming destruction of the temple. While Matthew provides the fullest account, this teaching is found in all three synoptic gospels.
