Contextual Overview

4 And Iesus answered, and sayd vnto them, Take heede that no man deceiue you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceiue many. 6 And ye shall heare of warres, and rumours of warres: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to passe, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shal rise against nation, & realme against realme, and there shalbe famine, and pestilence, and earthquakes in diuers places. 8 All these are but ye beginning of sorowes. 9 Then shal they deliuer you vp to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations for my Names sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shal betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall arise, & shall deceiue many. 12 And because iniquitie shalbe increased, the loue of many shalbe colde. 13 But he that endureth to the ende, he shalbe saued.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Behold, I have told you before. Meaning not before in this discourse, though he had in Matthew 24:5 signified also, that false Christs, and false prophets should arise, but before these things came to pass; so that they had sufficient notice and warning of them, and would be inexcusable if they were not upon their guard against them; and which, when they came to pass, would furnish out a considerable argument in proof of him, as the true Messiah, against all these false ones, showing him to be omniscient; and so would serve to establish their faith in him, and be a means of securing them from such deceivers.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Behold, I have told you before - Mark adds Mark 13:23, “take ye heed.” The reason why he told them before was that they might be on their guard, and be prepared for those calamities.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Matthew 24:25. Behold, I have told you before. — That is, I have forewarned you.
