Luke 12:55

55 When you see a south wind blowing, you say, 'It's going to be hot,' and that's what happens.

Luke 12:55 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:55

And when ye see the south wind blow
From the hot countries of Egypt, Ethiopia, and Arabia, which lay south of Judea:

ye say there will be heat;
or hot sultry weather, scorching heat, which such a wind brings with it:

and it cometh to pass;
generally speaking, as is asserted.

Luke 12:55 In-Context

53 A father will be against his son and a son against his father. A mother will be against her daughter and a daughter against her mother. A mother-in-law will be against her daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law."

54 Jesus said to the crowds, "When you see a cloud coming up in the west, you immediately say, 'There's going to be a rainstorm,' and it happens.

55 When you see a south wind blowing, you say, 'It's going to be hot,' and that's what happens.

56 You hypocrites! You can forecast the weather by judging the appearance of earth and sky. But for some reason you don't know how to judge the time in which you're living.

57 So why don't you judge for yourselves what is right?
