Lukas 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.

Lukas 21:16 In-Context

14 Therefore, keep in your levavot (hearts) not to prepare to defend yourselves.
15 For I will give to you a peh (mouth) and chochmah which none of your mitnaggedim will be able to resist or to contradict.
16 And you will be handed over also by horim and achim and krovey mishpachot (relatives) and chaverim (friends), and they will have some of you executed and you will die al kiddush ha-Shem,
17 And you will be the focus of sinas chinom (baseless hatred) from everyone because of my Name (Yehoshua, Yeshua).
18 And not even a hair of your rosh will by any means perish.
