Markos 13:36

36 Lest having come PITOM (suddenly MALACHI 3:1) he finds you sleeping.

Markos 13:36 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 13:36

Lest coming suddenly
Unthought of, and unexpected, at an unawares:

he find you sleeping;
inactive in the exercise of grace, and negligent in the performance of duty; unprepared for his coming, and unfit for service.

Markos 13:36 In-Context

34 It is like a man, when departing on a journey and leaving his bais (house) and, having put his avadim (servants) in charge, each with his assigned avodah (work), gives orders to the gatekeeper to be shomer.

35 Therefore you be shomer, for you do not have daas when the Baal Bayit comes, either late in the yom or at chatzot halailah or at cockcrow or baboker,

36 Lest having come PITOM (suddenly MALACHI 3:1) he finds you sleeping.

37 And what I say to you, I say to all, be shomer.
