Mark 13:25 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:25

And the stars of heaven shall fall
The Jewish Rabbins and doctors, who fell off from the written word, and compiled their "Misna", or oral law, their book of traditions, and set it up above the Bible, the foundation of which was laid immediately upon their dispersion.

And the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken;
the ordinances of the legal dispensation, which were shaken before, but now so shaken as to be removed; compare ( Haggai 2:6 ) with ( Hebrews 12:26 Hebrews 12:27 ) ; (See Gill on Matthew 24:29).

Mark 13:25 In-Context

23 Therefore take ye keep; lo! I have before-said to you all things.
24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be made dark, and the moon shall not give her light,
25 and the stars of heaven shall fall down, and the virtues that be in heavens, shall be moved.
26 And then they shall see man's Son coming in the clouds of heaven, with great virtue and glory.
27 And then he shall send his angels, and shall gather his chosen from the four winds, from the highest thing of earth till to the highest thing of heaven [from the lowest thing of earth unto the highest thing of heaven].
