Luke 21:8

8 qui dixit videte ne seducamini multi enim venient in nomine meo dicentes quia ego sum et tempus adpropinquavit nolite ergo ire post illos

Luke 21:8 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:8

And he said, take heed that ye be not deceived
With false Christs, and false prophets: for many shall come in my name;
making use of his name, taking it to them; not that they would pretend they were sent by him, but that they were he himself: saying, I am [Christ];
so the Syriac and Persic versions supply as we do: and the time draweth near;
not that such will come, but when come, they will say, that the time of the deliverance of the Jewish nation from the Roman yoke is at hand: go ye not therefore after them;
do not be their disciples, or follow them where they would lead you; for nothing but destruction will be the consequence of it.

Luke 21:8 In-Context

6 haec quae videtis venient dies in quibus non relinquetur lapis super lapidem qui non destruatur
7 interrogaverunt autem illum dicentes praeceptor quando haec erunt et quod signum cum fieri incipient
8 qui dixit videte ne seducamini multi enim venient in nomine meo dicentes quia ego sum et tempus adpropinquavit nolite ergo ire post illos
9 cum autem audieritis proelia et seditiones nolite terreri oportet primum haec fieri sed non statim finis
10 tunc dicebat illis surget gens contra gentem et regnum adversus regnum
