Contextual Overview

³² Now, from the fig-tree, learn ye, the parable: - When, already, her young branch, becometh tender, and the leaves, may be sprouting, ye observe, that, near, is, the summer: ³³ Thus, ye also, when ye shall see all these things, observe ye, that, near, he is, at the doors. ³⁴ Verily, I say unto you - In nowise, shall this generation, pass away, until all these things, shall happen: ³⁵ The heaven and the earth, shall pass away, but, my words, shall, in nowise, pass away. ³⁶ But, concerning that day and hour, no one, knoweth, neither the messengers of the heavens, nor the Son, - save the Father only. ³⁷ For, just as the days of Noah, so, will be the presence of the Son of Man; ³⁸ For, as they were in those days that were before the flood, feeding and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, - until the day Noah entered into the ark; ³⁹ And they observed not, until the flood came and took away all together, so, will be, the presence of the Son of Man. ⁴⁰ Then, shall there be two men in the field, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind: ⁴¹ Two women grinding at the mill, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Heaven and earth shall pass away,.... This is either an assertion, which will be true at the end of time; not as to the substance of the heavens and earth, which will always remain, but as to the qualities of them, which will be altered: they will be renewed and refined, but not destroyed; the bad qualities, or evil circumstances, which attend them through the sin of man, will be removed and pass away, but they themselves will continue in being: or is a comparative expression, and the sense is, that the heavens and the earth, and the ordinances thereof, than which nothing can be more firm and strong, being fixed and supported by God himself, shall sooner pass away, than anything asserted and predicted by Christ shall:

but my words shall not pass away; be vain and empty, and unaccomplished; which is true of anything, and everything spoken by Christ; and especially here regards all that he had said concerning the calamities that should befall the Jews, before, at, or upon the destruction of their nation, city, and temple; and the design of the expression, is to show the certainty, unalterableness, and sure accomplishment of these things; see Jeremiah 31:36.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Heaven and earth shall pass away ... - You may sooner expect to see the heaven and earth pass away and return to nothing, than my words to fail.
