Luke 17:23

Go not away nor follow after them (mh apelqhte mhde diwchte). Westcott and Hort bracket apelqhte mhde. Note aorist subjunctive with mh in prohibition, ingressive aorist. Do not rush after those who set times and places for the second advent. The Messiah was already present in the first advent (verse Luke 17:21) though the Pharisees did not know it.
