Mark 13:19 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:19

For in those days shall be affliction
What with the close siege of the Romans; the fury of the zealots, and seditious; the rage of different parties among the Jews themselves; the ravage of the sword, both within and without, together with dreadful plagues and famines:

such as was not from the beginning of the creation, which God
created, unto this time, neither shall be;
of which there never was the like in any age, and cannot be paralleled in any history, since the beginning of time, or the world was made, or any thing in it, down to that period; nor ever will the like befall any one particular nation under the heavens, to the end of the world; (See Gill on Matthew 24:21).

Mark 13:19 In-Context

17 But woe to those that are with child and to those that give suck in those days!

18 And pray that it may not be in winter time;

19 for those days shall be distress such as there has not been the like since [the] beginning of creation which God created, until now, and never shall be;

20 and if [the] Lord had not cut short those days, no flesh should have been saved; but on account of the elect whom he has chosen, he has cut short those days.

21 And then if any one say to you, Lo, here [is] the Christ, or Lo, there, believe [it] not.
