    “While some people were speaking about how the

    temple was adorned with costly stones and votive

    offerings, he said, ‘All that you see here—the days will

    come when there will not be left a stone upon another

    stone that will not be thrown down.’”

    must flee to the mountains. Let those within the city

    enter the city, for these days are the time of

    punishment when all the scriptures are fulfilled. Woe

    for a terrible calamity will come upon the earth and a
