Context of Mark 13:10
8Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in many parts of the world, as well as famines. But this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come. 9“When these things begin to happen, watch out! You will be handed over to the local councils and beaten in the synagogues. You will stand trial before governors and kings because you are my followers. But this will be your opportunity to tell them about me. For the Good News must first be preached to all nations. 11But when you are arrested and stand trial, don’t worry in advance about what to say. Just say what God tells you at that time, for it is not you who will be speaking, but the Holy Spirit. 12“A brother will betray his brother to death, a father will betray his own child, and children will rebel against their parents and cause them to be killed.

Commentaries on Mark 13:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10And the Gospel must first be published among all nations. - Many of the Evangelistaria omit this verse. Its proper place seems to be after verse the thirteenth.Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 5-13Verses 5-13 Our Lord Jesus, in reply to the disciples' question, does not so much satisfy their curiosity as direct their consciences. When many are deceived, we should thereby be awakened to look to ourselves. And the disciples of Christ, if it be not their own fault, may enjoy holy security and peace of mind, when all around is in disorder. But they must take heed that they are not drawn away from Christ and their duty to him, by the sufferings they…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 10Such trials (13:9, 11) would be a means through which the good news about Jesus would be preached to all nations. This would all take place first (before the destruction of Jerusalem). For Paul’s understanding of how the good news had already been preached to every nation in his day, see Romans 16:26; Colossians 1:6, 23 (see also Romans 1:5, 8; 10:18; 15:19, 23).Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1010. And the gospel must first be published among all nations--"for a witness, and then shall the end come" (Mt 24:14). God never sends judgment without previous warning; and there can be no doubt that the Jews, already dispersed over most known countries, had nearly all heard the Gospel "as a witness," before the end of the Jewish state. The same principle was repeated and will repeat itself to "the end."Read the comment
