Luke 17:25

25 But first it is necessary [for] him to suffer many [things], and to be rejected by this generation.

Luke 17:25 In-Context

23 And they will say to you, 'Behold, there!' 'Behold, here!' Do not go out or run after [them]!
24 For just as the lightning shines forth, flashing from [one place] under heaven to [another place] under heaven, so the Son of Man will be in his day.
25 But first it is necessary [for] him to suffer many [things], and to be rejected by this generation.
26 And just as it was in the days of Noah, so also it will be in the days of the Son of Man--
27 they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed [them] all.
