Luke 21:27

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.

28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because ^ayour redemption draws near.”

29 ^aThen He spoke to them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees.

And then shall they see (kai tote oyontai). As much as to say that it will be not till then. Clearly the promise of the second coming of the Son of man in glory here (Mark 13:26 f.; Matthew 24:30 f.) is pictured as not one certain of immediate realization. The time element is left purposely vague.
