Chapter overview (whole chapter)
In this chapter Jesus speaks a warning about the coming tribulation, describing signs such as darkness, earthquakes, and false messiahs, and says that many will perish for refusing to accept the truth. He also tells a parable about the mustard seed and heals a blind man, while recounting the story of the woman caught in adultery, which illustrates the limits of legalism.
