LIGHTFOOTthus explains it: “When Jerusalem shall be reduced to ashes, andthat wicked nation cut off and rejected, then shall the Son of mansend His ministers with the trumpet of the Gospel, and they shallgather His elect of the several nations, from the four corners ofheaven: so that God shall not want a Church, although that ancientpeople of His be rejected and cast off: but that ancient JewishChurch being destroyed, a new Church shall be called out of theGentiles.” But though something like this appears to be theprimary sense of the verse, in relation to the destruction ofJerusalem, no one can fail to see that the language swells beyond anygathering of a human family into a Church upon earth, and forces thethoughts onward to that gathering of the Church “at the lasttrump,” to meet the Lord in the air, which is to wind up thepresent scene. Still, this is not, in our judgment, the direct<\/I>subject of the prediction; for Mr13:28<\/span> limits the whole prediction to the generation thenexisting.<\/P><\/p>\n And then he shall send his angels<\/strong>,…. The ministers of the Gospel to preach it, and plant more churches among the Gentiles, since that at Jerusalem was entirely broken up:<\/p>\n and shall gather together his elect<\/strong>; that is, he the son of man, or Christ, shall gather them by the ministry of his servants; or “they shall gather them”, as the Ethiopic version reads; and as Beza says it is read in a certain copy: these ministers shall be the means of gathering such whom God has chosen from all eternity, to obtain salvation by Christ, out of the world, and unto Christ, and into a Gospel church state: even<\/p>\n from the uttermost part of the earth, to the uttermost part of the heaven<\/strong>; be they where they will, on earth, and under the whole heavens; [See comments on Mt 24:31]<\/span>.<\/p>\n Shall gather together his elect <\/B> ( <\/SPAN><\/span>).

From the uttermost part of the earth, etc. Probably an allusion to the apparent junction of earth and sky at the visible horizon, but in any case it refers to the whole world. Matthew gives a different form, and inserts with a trumpet of great sound.<\/p>\n Evidently Jesus will bring all the elect together. This implies the resurrection of Old Testament saints (Dan 12:2) and Tribulation saints who have died (Rev 6:9-11). Probably Christians, saints of the church age who have gone to heaven at the Rapture or death, will return with Him (1Th 4:17). Saints living on the earth when Jesus returns will also assemble to Him (cf. Matthew 25). Jesus pictured all believers converging to Him at His second coming whether alive or dead, on earth or in heaven. He will become the universal center of attention, and then He will begin reigning. Unbelievers will not experience resurrection until the end of Jesus’ millennial reign (Rev 20:7-15).<\/p>\n And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. 27. then shall he send his angels ] As the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father (Joh 1:18), alone ever … Continue reading “Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Mark 13:27”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24731","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-commentary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24731","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24731"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24731\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24731"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24731"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Fuente: The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n
