James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Hereafter


Subjects in this Topic:

HEREAFTER.—In Mat_26:64 ‘Hereafter shall ye see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven,’ the meaning of ‘hereafter’ is ‘from this time’ (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘henceforth’). So Mar_11:14, Luk_22:69, Joh_1:51; Joh_14:30. Elsewhere the meaning is ‘at some time in the future,’ as Joh_13:7 ‘What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.’
