Mark 13:27 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:27

And then he shall send his angels
The ministers of the Gospel to preach it, and plant more churches among the Gentiles, since that at Jerusalem was entirely broken up:

and shall gather together his elect;
that is, he the son of man, or Christ, shall gather them by the ministry of his servants; or "they shall gather them", as the Ethiopic version reads; and as Beza says it is read in a certain copy: these ministers shall be the means of gathering such whom God has chosen from all eternity, to obtain salvation by Christ, out of the world, and unto Christ, and into a Gospel church state: even

from the uttermost part of the earth, to the uttermost part of the
heaven;
be they where they will, on earth, and under the whole heavens; (See Gill on Matthew 24:31).

Mark 13:27 In-Context

25 the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’
26 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 And He will send out the angels to gather His elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.
28 Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.
29 So also, when you see these things happening, know that He is near, right at the door.
