Luke 21:16

16 But ye will be delivered up even by parents and brethren and relations and friends, and they shall put to death [some] from among you,

Luke 21:16 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:16

And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren,
&c.] (See Gill on Matthew 10:21) and kinsfolks, and friends.
The Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions add, "your", to each of these relations, as your parents and some of you shall they cause to be put to death;
as Stephen was stoned to death, and James, the brother of John, Herod killed with the sword, ( Acts 7:58 ) ( 12:2 ) and indeed all of them were put to death, except John, before the destruction of Jerusalem.

Luke 21:16 In-Context

14 Settle therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand [your] defence,

15 for *I* will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your opposers shall not be able to reply to or resist.

16 But ye will be delivered up even by parents and brethren and relations and friends, and they shall put to death [some] from among you,

17 and ye will be hated of all for my name's sake.

18 And a hair of your head shall in no wise perish.
