The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:1-14

The great prophecy: General predictions of coming sorrows. I. THE TEMPLE . 1 . The Lord ' s departure. Jesus went out. He had taught in the temple for the last time. He had greatly loved that holy house of God. He had shown a burning zeal for its honour. Twice he had expelled the crowd of traffickers who made it a house of merchandise, a den of thieves. He "would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple." He so strongly insisted upon the duty of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:1-51

PROPHECY OF THE DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM , AND OF THE TIMES OF THE END . ( Mark 13:1-37 ; Luke 21:5-36 .) There is no reason to think, with Olshauson, that St. Matthew or his editor has considerably amplified the original discourse of our Lord by introducing details and expressions from other quarters. The discourse, as we now have it ( Matthew 24:1-51 . and 25.), forms a distinct whole, divided into certain portions closely related to each other and it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:4

Jesus answered and said. The succeeding prophecy has much exercised the minds of commentators from the earliest times unto the present. It is, indeed, full of mysteries, dark sayings, profundities, which our minds cannot fathom. Many of these are and must be inherent in the subject; but some difficulties have been created by the imperfect views taken by those who have applied themselves to explain the Lord's utterances. It is seen by all that we have here predictions concerning the fate of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:4-14

Signs of the advent. The coming of Christ in his kingdom being the great event of prophecy to be fulfilled, the time and signs of that coming became questions of intense interest to the disciples. The time is generally indicated by the signs. These are— I. APOSTASY THROUGH THE INFLUENCE OF FALSE CHRISTS . 1 . Many antichrists appeared before the destruction of Jerusalem. 2 . Many have since been deceived by the popes. 3 . Many have been deceived in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:5

Here begins what has been called the first strophe of the oracle ( Matthew 24:5-14 ), which indicates certain prognostics common to the close of the Jewish theocracy and to the end of the world. Many shall come in my Name ( ἐπι ì τῷ ὀνο ì ματι ì μου ), resting on my Name, grounding their pretensions thereon. Saying, I am Christ ( the Christ ) . They who really desired to follow Christ should be tried by the temptation to see in other persons the Messiah. The... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:5

False Christs. It is a fact of history that pretenders appeared who claimed to be sent by God for the deliverance of the Jews, and practically usurped to themselves the position of the Christ. But all this belongs to far-distant ages. In a larger application of our Lord's idea, the world has seen many other false Christs down even to our own time, for whoever or whatever assumes to do the work of Christ or claims his honours is a false Christ. Let us look at some of these usurpers. I. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:6

Ye shall hear ( μελλη ì σετε ἀκου ì ειν ). Ye are about, ye are destined, to hear. "Futurum complicatum, audituri eritis " (Bengel). He addresses the apostles as representatives of the whole body of believers. Wars and rumours of wars; i.e. wars near at hand, and distant wars of which the rumour only reaches you, but which threaten to approach and menace your peace (cf. Jeremiah 4:19 ). The peace which reigned at Christ's birth was rudely shattered after his death,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 24:6

The Christian attitude in times of civil commotion. There is always a tendency to exaggerate their importance. It is strange to find Christian people able to find some high prophetic allusion forevery little war or social disturbance within the sphere of their knowledge. Every national trouble is manufactured into a sign of the "coming end." Precisely of this strange tendency our Lord so anxiously warned his disciples in this discourse. "Do not run away into extravagant imaginations under... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 24:4-5

Take heed ... - Jesus, in reply to their question, first gives them a caution to beware of deception. They were to be constantly on their guard, because many would arise to deceive the people.Many shall come in my name - Not in the name or by the authority of Jesus, or claiming to be His followers, and to be sent by him, but in the name of the Messiah, or claiming to be the Messiah.I am Christ - I am the Messiah. See the notes at Matthew 1:1. The Messiah was expected at that time, Matthew... read more
