This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Luk 21:26. Φίβου καὶ προσδοκίας, fear and expectation [“looking after”]) fear, viz. of things present; expectation, viz. of things future. Not even the saints shall be altogether exempt from some degree of terror: comp. ch. Luk 24:37-38 [The disciples, after the resurrection, were on the sudden appearance of Jesus at first “terrified and affrighted.” ‘Joy’ suceeds in Luk 24:41]: but soon they will recover themselves.-αἱ γὰρ δυνάμεις, for the powers) This is now no longer a mere sign, but one of those things which are coming on the earth.
