Lucas 12:54

54 Decía también a las multitudes: Cuando veis una nube que se levanta en el poniente, al instante decís: "Viene un aguacero", y así sucede.

Lucas 12:54 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:54

And he said also to the people
For what Christ had before said, were chiefly, if not solely, directed to his disciples; but now he turned himself to the innumerable multitude that were about him, and particularly addressed himself to the Scribes and Pharisees that were among them:

when ye see a cloud rise out of the west;
the watery vapours being attracted by the heat of the sun, out of the Mediterranean Sea, which lies west of the land of Judea, and formed into a cloud, and drove by the wind:

straightway ye say there comes a shower;
as soon as it is seen, it is presently concluded and affirmed, that a very heavy shower will soon fall, it having been frequently observed so to do, when this has been the case:

and so it is;
for the most part, there commonly follows a large shower on such an appearance, and they were seldom mistaken in their conclusions.

Lucas 12:54 In-Context

52 Porque desde ahora en adelante, cinco en una casa estarán divididos; tres contra dos y dos contra tres.

53 Estarán divididos el padre contra el hijo y el hijo contra el padre; la madre contra la hija y la hija contra la madre; la suegra contra su nuera y la nuera contra su suegra.

54 Decía también a las multitudes: Cuando veis una nube que se levanta en el poniente, al instante decís: "Viene un aguacero", y así sucede.

55 Y cuando sopla el viento del sur, decís: "Va a hacer calor", y así pasa.

56 ¡Hipócritas! Sabéis examinar el aspecto de la tierra y del cielo; entonces, ¿por qué no examináis este tiempo presente?
