Marco 13:22

22 Perciocchè falsi cristi, e falsi profeti sorgeranno, e faranno segni e miracoli, per sedurre, se fosse possibile, eziandio gli eletti.

Marco 13:22 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:22

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise
As there did, both before and after the destruction of Jerusalem:

and shall show signs and wonders;
as they pretended to do, and did, at least to the appearance of people:

to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect;
who were chosen in Christ, unto eternal life; in consequence of which they truly believed in him, and were constant followers of him; but this was not possible: though such was the force of their deception, that there was apparent danger of it, were it not for the power and grace of God; (See Gill on Matthew 24:24).

Marco 13:22 In-Context

20 E, se il Signore non avesse abbreviati que’ giorni, niuna carne scamperebbe; ma, per gli eletti, i quali egli ha eletti, il Signore ha abbreviati que’ giorni.

21 Ed allora, se alcuno vi dice: Ecco qui il Cristo; ovvero: Eccolo là; nol crediate.

22 Perciocchè falsi cristi, e falsi profeti sorgeranno, e faranno segni e miracoli, per sedurre, se fosse possibile, eziandio gli eletti.

23 Ma voi, guardatevi; ecco, io vi ho predetta ogni cosa.

24 MA in que’ giorni, dopo quell’afflizione, il sole scurerà, e la luna non darà il suo splendore.
