Mark 13:21 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:21

And then if any man shall say to you
During those days of tribulation and affliction, or when shortened and at an end:

lo! [here is] Christ, or lo! [he is] there;
the Messiah has appeared in such or in such a place, to deliver you from your national distresses and calamities, and from the Roman yoke and bondage:

believe him not;
give no credit to such a report, for the reason following; (See Gill on Matthew 24:23).

Mark 13:21 In-Context

19 For in those days there will be sorrow, such as there has not been from the time when God made the world till now, and will not ever be again.

20 And if the Lord had not made the time short, no flesh would have been kept from destruction; but because of the saints he has made the time short.

21 And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:

22 Because there will be false Christs and false prophets, and they will give signs and wonders in the hope of turning even the saints from the true way.

23 But take care; see, I have made all things clear to you before the time.
