25 And there shall be - Before the great day, which was typified by the
destruction of Jerusalem: signs - Different from those mentioned Lu 21:11,
&c. Mt 24:29; Mr 13:24.
28 Now when these things - Mentioned Lu 21:8,10, &c, begin to come
to pass, look up with firm faith, and lift up your heads with joy: for
your redemption out of many troubles draweth nigh, by God's destroying
your implacable enemies.
29 Behold the fig tree and all the trees - Christ spake this in the
spring, just before the passover; when all the trees were budding on the
mount of Olives, where they then were.
30 Ye know of yourselves - Though none teach you.
31 The kingdom of God is nigh - The destruction of the Jewish city,
temple, and religion, to make way for the advancement of my kingdom.
32 Till all things be effected - All that has been spoken of the
destruction of Jerusalem, to which the question, Lu 21:7, relates: and which
is treated of from Lu 21:8 - 24.
