Luke 21:24
Compare all
22 For these are the days of vengeance, that aall things which are written may be fulfilled.  
23 aBut woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people.  
24 And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles auntil the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.  

The Coming of the Son of Man

25 a“And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring;  
26 men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, afor the powers of the heavens will be shaken.  
27 Then they will see the Son of Man acoming in a cloud with power and great glory.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Luke 21:23   Luke 21:25 >>


Luke 21:24

They shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive - Eleven hundred thousand perished in the siege of Jerusalem, and above ninety thousand were sold for slaves. So terribly was this prophecy fulfilled! And Jerusalem shall be trodden by the Gentiles - That is, inhabited. So it was indeed. The land was sold, and no Jew suffered even to come within sight of Jerusalem. The very foundations of the city were ploughed up, and a heathen temple built where the temple of God had stood. The times of the Gentiles - That is, the times limited for their treading the city; which shall terminate in the full conversion of the Gentiles.
