Contextual Overview

4 And Iesus aunswered, and sayde vnto them: take heede, that no man deceaue you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christe: and shall deceaue many. 6 Ye shal heare of warres, & rumours of warres: See that you be not troubled. For all [these thynges] must come to passe, but the ende is not yet. 7 Nation shall ryse agaynst nation, and realme agaynst realme: and there shalbe pestilence, and famine, and earthquakes, in [certayne] places. 8 All these are the begynnynges of sorowes. 9 Then shall they put you to trouble, and shall kyll you, and ye shalbe hated of all nations for my names sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophetes shall aryse, and shall deceaue many. 12 And because iniquitie shall abounde, the loue of many shall waxe colde. 13 But he that endureth to the ende, the same shalbe saued.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let him which is on the housetop,.... Who should be there either for his devotion or recreation; for the houses of the Jews were built with flat roofs and battlements about them, which they made use of both for diversion and pleasure, and for private meditation and prayer, for social conversation, and sometimes for public preaching; see Matthew 10:27

not come down to take anything out of his house: that is, let him not come down in the inner way, but by the stairs, or ladder, on the outside of the house, which was usual. They had two ways of going out of, and into their houses; the one they call d, דרך פתחים, "the way of the doors"; the other, דרך גגין, "the way of the roof": upon which the gloss is,

"to go up on the outside, דרך פולם, "by way" or "means" of a ladder, fixed at the entrance of the door of the upper room, and from thence he goes down into the house by a ladder;''

and in the same way they could come out; see Mark 2:4 and let him not go into his house to take any of his goods, or money, or food along with him necessary for his sustenance in his flight; lest, whilst he is busy in taking care of these, he loses his life, or, at least, the opportunity of making his escape; so sudden is this desolation represented to be.

d T. Bab. Bava Metzia, fol. 117. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Him which is on the house-top - The roofs of the houses in Eastern countries were made flat, so that they were favorable places for walking and retirement. See the notes at Matthew 9:1-8. The meaning here is, that He who should be on the house-top when this calamity came upon the city “should flee without delay;” He should not even take time to secure any article of apparel from his house. So sudden would be the calamity, that by attempting to do this He would endanger his life.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Matthew 24:17. Let him which is on the house top — The houses of the Jews, as well as those of the ancient Greeks and Romans, were flat-roofed, and had stairs on the outside, by which persons might ascend and descend without coming into the house. In the eastern walled cities, these flat-roofed houses usually formed continued terraces from one end of the city to the other; which terraces terminated at the gates. He, therefore, who is walking on the house top, let him not come down to take any thing out of his house; but let him instantly pursue his course along the tops of the houses, and escape out at the city gate as fast as he can.

Any thing — Instead of τι, any thing, we should read τα, the things; which reading is supported by all the best MSS., versions, and fathers.
