SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:37
Y las cosas que a vosotros digo, a todos las digo: Velad.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 37. And what I say unto you , etc..] The four disciples, Peter, James, John, and Andrew; who came privately to him, and put to him the questions, which occasioned this long discourse; (see Mark 13:3,4). I say unto all . The Syriac and Persic versions read, you all; meaning all the rest of his apostles, and all his disciples and followers in Jerusalem, and in all Judea; who were all concerned in these things, and whom it became to watch , and be upon their guard, and cast off all sloth and negligence; since they knew not soon the son of man would come, and all these evil things would be brought upon the Jewish nation, city, and temple: and the same exhortation is suitable to saints in all ages, times, and places, on account of the various snares, temptations, and evils, that they are liable to, the suddenness of death, and the uncertainty of the second coming of Christ.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 28-37 - We have the application of this prophetic sermon. As to the destructio of Jerusalem, expect it to come very shortly. As to the end of the world, do not inquire when it will come, for of that day and that hou knoweth no man. Christ, as God, could not be ignorant of anything; but the Divine wisdom which dwelt in our Saviour, communicated itself to his human soul according to the Divine pleasure. As to both, our duty is to watch and pray. Our Lord Jesus, when he ascended on high, lef something for all his servants to do. We ought to be always upon ou watch, in expectation of his return. This applies to Christ's coming to us at our death, as well as to the general judgment. We know no whether our Master will come in the days of youth, or middle age, or old age; but, as soon as we are born, we begin to die, and therefore we must expect death. Our great care must be, that, whenever our Lor comes, he may not find us secure, indulging in ease and sloth, mindles of our work and duty. He says to all, Watch, that you may be found i peace, without spot, and blameless __________________________________________________________________
