Marcos 13:37 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:37

And what I say unto you
The four disciples, Peter, James, John, and Andrew; who came privately to him, and put to him the questions, which occasioned this long discourse; see ( Mark 13:3 Mark 13:4 ) .

I say unto all.
The Syriac and Persic versions read, "you all"; meaning all the rest of his apostles, and all his disciples and followers in Jerusalem, and in all Judea; who were all concerned in these things, and whom it became to

watch,
and be upon their guard, and cast off all sloth and negligence; since they knew not soon the son of man would come, and all these evil things would be brought upon the Jewish nation, city, and temple: and the same exhortation is suitable to saints in all ages, times, and places, on account of the various snares, temptations, and evils, that they are liable to, the suddenness of death, and the uncertainty of the second coming of Christ.

36 no sea que venga de repente y los encuentre dormidos.

37 Lo que les digo a ustedes, se lo digo a todos: ¡Manténganse despiertos!
