Luke 17:23 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Luke 17:23

21 ^anor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, ^bthe kingdom of God is within you.”

22 Then He said to the disciples, ^a“The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

23 ^aAnd they will say to you, ‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them.

24 ^aFor as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven shines to the other part under heaven, so also the Son of Man will be in His day.

25 ^aBut first He must suffer many things and be ^brejected by this generation.

26 ^aAnd as it ^bwas in the ^cdays of ^dNoah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:

Luke 17:23

they shall say, See here . . . go not, etc.—a warning to all so-called expositors of prophecy and their followers, who cry, Lo there and see here, every time that war breaks out or revolutions occur.

Luke 17:20-25

COMING OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND OF THE SON OF MAN. (Luke 17:20-37)

when, etc.—To meet the erroneous views not only of the Pharisees, but of the disciples themselves, our Lord addresses both, announcing the coming of the kingdom under different aspects.

It cometh not with observation—with watching or lying in wait, as for something outwardly imposing and at once revealing itself.
