Exegesis
Dei {δεῖ | deî} ‘it is necessary’ introduces a causal explanation, and tauta genesthai {ταῦτα γενέσθαι | taû-ta ge-né-sthai} ‘these things to happen’ presents the upheavals as events that must occur before the climax.
In context — Luke 21:9
But whenever you hear of wars and unrest , do not be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end will not be immediate.
