Contextual Overview

34I will send my cowboys and wise foremen and experts in the code of Moses to you. But y'all will string 'em up or nail 'em to a cross or whip 'em away from your meetings or run 'em out of town. 35That's why you'll be found guilty for every cowboy, starting with Abel. 36I promise that you people livin' today will be punished for all these things. 37"Oh my town of Jerusalem! You have killed all those I sent to take care of you. I want so bad to take all your children and comfort them like a momma hen comforts her chicks, but you have shunned me. 38Now your church will be deserted and full of tumbleweeds. 39You ain't gonna see me again until you say, 'Blessed is the cowboy who comes in the name of the Boss.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Verily I say unto you,.... An usual form of introducing something of moment to raise attention to it, and to ascertain the truth of it:

all these things shall come upon this generation; all the things which Christ had foretold should come to pass in the present age; as that the apostles and ministers of the word he should send to them, some of them they would kill and crucify, and others they would scourge in their synagogues, or persecute from place to place; and all the horrible murders and bloodshed in any age, committed by that people, would be placed to the account of the men of that generation; and the guilt of them imputed to them, and the punishment due unto them be inflicted on them. And which came to pass, and had its full accomplishment about forty years after this, in the utter destruction of Jerusalem, and the whole nation; so that many now living were personally involved in that temporal ruin, as well as escaped not the damnation of hell, Matthew 23:33.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Upon this generation - The destruction of Jerusalem took place about forty years after this was spoken. See the next chapter.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Matthew 23:36. Shall come upon this generation — επι την γενεαν ταυτην, upon this race of men, viz. the Jews. This phrase often occurs in this sense in the evangelists.
