Luca 13:5 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 13:5

I tell you, nay
I affirm it, and you may depend upon it, they were not greater sinners than others: though such a melancholy accident befell them, not without the providence of God:

but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish;
or perish in the same manner; that is, shall be buried under the ruins of the city and temple of Jerusalem, when one stone should not be left upon another; just as these eighteen men were buried under the ruins of the tower of Siloam, of which it was a pledge and emblem; and accordingly great numbers of them did perish in the temple, and were buried under the ruins of it F4.

Luca 13:5 In-Context

3 No, vi dico; ma se non vi ravvedete, tutti similmente perirete.
4 O quei diciotto sui quali cadde la torre in Siloe e li uccise, pensate voi che fossero più colpevoli di tutti gli abitanti di Gerusalemme?
5 No, vi dico; ma se non vi ravvedete, tutti al par di loro perirete.
6 Disse pure questa parabola: Un tale aveva un fico piantato nella sua vigna; e andò a cercarvi del frutto, e non ne trovò.
7 Disse dunque al vignaiuolo: Ecco, sono ormai tre anni che vengo a cercar frutto da questo fico, e non ne trovo; taglialo; perché sta lì a rendere improduttivo anche il terreno?
