Mat 24:23“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the [fn]Christ,’ or ‘He is over here,’ do not believe him.

Mat 24:25“Behold, I have told you in advance.

Mat 24:26

Mat 24:30

Parable of the Fig Tree

(Mar 13:28–31; Luk 21:29–33 )

Mat 24:32

“Now^G1161 learn^G3129 the parable^G3850 from the fig^G4808 tree^G4808: as soon^G3752^G2235 as its branch^G2798 has become^G1096 tender^G527 and sprouts^G1631 its leaves^G5444, you know^G1097 that summer^G2330 is near^G1451;

Mat 24:33

Mat 24:33so you too, when you see all these things, [fn]recognize that [fn]He is near, right at the [fn]door.

Mat 24:34

Mat 24:34“Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.

Mat 24:37

Mat 24:37“For [fn]the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah.

Mat 24:38

Mat 24:38“For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,

Mat 24:39

Mat 24:39and they did not [fn]understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Mat 24:40

Mat 24:40“At that time there will be two men in the field; one [fn]will be taken and one [fn]will be left.

Mat 24:41

Mat 24:41“Two women will be grinding at the [fn]mill; one [fn]will be taken and one [fn]will be left.

Be Ready for His Coming

Mat 24:42

“Therefore^G3767 be on the alert^G1127, for you do not know^G6063 which^G4169 day^G2250 your Lord^G2962 is coming^G2064.

Mat 24:43

Mat 24:43“But [fn]be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

Mat 24:44

Mat 24:44“For this reason you must be ready as well; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will.

(Luk 12:41–48 )

Mat 24:45

“Who^G5101 then^G686 is the faithful^G4103 and sensible^G5429 slave^G1401 whom^G3739 his [fn]master^G2962 put^G2525 in^G2525 charge^G2525 of his household^G6064 slaves^G6064, to give^G1325 them their food^G5160 at the proper^G2540 time^G2540?

Mat 24:46

Mat 24:46“Blessed is that slave whom his [fn]master finds so doing when he comes.

Mat 24:47

Mat 24:47“Truly I say to you that he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

Mat 24:48

Mat 24:48“But if that evil slave says in his heart, ‘My [fn]master [fn]is not coming for a long time,’

Mat 24:49

Mat 24:49and he begins to beat his fellow slaves, and he eats and drinks with those habitually drunk;

Mat 24:50

Mat 24:50then the [fn]master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect, and at an hour that he does not know,

Mat 24:51

Mat 24:51and he will [fn]cut him in two and assign [fn]him a place with the hypocrites; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
