Contextual Overview

³² "Learn a lesson from the fig tree: When its branches become green and soft and new leaves appear, you know summer is near. ³³ In the same way, when you see all these things happening, you will know that the time is near, ready to come. ³⁴ I tell you the truth, all these things will happen while the people of this time are still living. ³⁵ Earth and sky will be destroyed, but the words I have said will never be destroyed. ³⁶ "No one knows when that day or time will be, not the angels in heaven, not even the Son. Only the Father knows. ³⁷ When the Son of Man comes, it will be like what happened during Noah's time. ³⁸ In those days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving their children to be married, until the day Noah entered the boat. ³⁹ They knew nothing about what was happening until the flood came and destroyed them. It will be the same when the Son of Man comes. ⁴⁰ Two men will be in the field. One will be taken, and the other will be left. ⁴¹ Two women will be grinding grain with a mill. One will be taken, and the other will be left.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Watch therefore,.... Since the time of this desolation is so uncertain, and since it will come upon the Jews unawares, and some wilt escape, whilst others perish; for the words are plainly an inference from what precedes, and clearly relate to things going before, and are not a transition to a new subject:

for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come; to avenge himself of the unbelieving Jews, and fulfil what he in person, and by his apostles, had predicted and warned them of: though I will not deny, but that what follows may be much better accommodated and applied to the second coming of Christ, and the last judgment, and the behaviour of men with regard to both, than anything said before; and it may be our Lord's intention, to lead his disciples gradually, and as it were imperceptibly, to the last scene of things on earth, to make way for the parables and description of the future judgment, in the next chapter; still keeping in view, and having reference to, the subject he had been so long upon.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Watch - Be looking for his coming. Be expecting it as near; as a great event; as coming in an unexpected manner. Watch the signs of his coming, and be ready.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 42. Watch therefore — Be always on your guard, that you may not be taken unawares, and that you may be properly prepared to meet God in the way either of judgment or mercy, whensoever he may come. This advice the followers of Christ took, and therefore they escaped; the miserable Jews rejected it, and were destroyed. Let us learn wisdom by the things which they suffered.
