Matthew 24:9 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 24:9

7 For ^anation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be ^bfamines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 ^a“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.

10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.

11 Then ^amany false prophets will rise up and ^bdeceive many.

12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow ^acold.

13 ^aBut he who endures to the end shall be saved.

14 And this ^agospel of the kingdom ^bwill be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

The Great Tribulation

15 ^a“Therefore when you see the ^b‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” ^c(whoever reads, let him understand),

16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.

18 And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.

19 But ^awoe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!

20 And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.

21 For ^athen there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; ^abut for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

23 ^a“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.

24 For ^afalse christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, ^bif possible, even the elect.

25 See, I have told you beforehand.

26 “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it.

27 ^aFor as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

28 ^aFor wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.

The Coming of the Son of Man

29 ^a“Immediately after the tribulation of those days ^bthe sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

30 ^aThen the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, ^band then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
