????. 24: 37 – But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and ???? ???? ??? ????;so shall also the coming of the Son of man 40 Then shall two be in the field; ??? ??? ????? ?? ?????, and the other left.
Is this truly the Rapture?
Who was ????? ?????
What does it mean to be taken away?
Do we really believe in what the Lord said?
Are we reading our meaning into what he said?
Is something wrong with our understanding of this page?
Look at it again;
????.17: 27 (???) – They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and ????????? ???? ???.
???? 17:27 (???) – Everybody kept on eating and drinking, and men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat and the ????? ???? ??? ?????? ???? ???.
???? 24:38 (????) – For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, [men] marrying and [women] being given in marriage, until the [very] day when Noah went into the ark, 39 And they did not know or understand until the flood came and ????? ???? ??? ???? —so will be the coming of the Son of Man. [Gen 6:5-8; 7:6-24.]
40 At that time two men will be in the field; one ???? ?? ????? and one will be left.
???? 24:39 (???) and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
????.24:39 (???) yet they did not realize what was happening until the flood came and swept them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes.
???? 17:27 (???) Everybody kept on eating and drinking, and men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat and the flood came and killed them all.
With this simple comparison, its evident that Jesus wasn’t talking about ????????? a people, but rather that those who never heed the warnings of Noah were killed by the flood and that is what is meant be taken away. ?? ?? ??? ?????? ???? ??? ????? ???? (??????) ??? ??? ?????????.
Apostle Peter alluding to the same scenario, said;
2 Pet.3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men”.
This was before AD 70. As 2nd Peter was written between AD 62-64. So here Peter was saying like what Mathew and Luke said, that ??? ??????? ???, ????? ??? ??? ??? ??? ????????? ????? ??? ????????????? ???? ??? ????? ????? ????? ????????? , ?????? ?????? ?? ??? ????? ???? ??? ??? ?? ??? ????? ???????? who came to Jerusalem under General Titus.
Evidently we got something wrong, using Mathew 24 , with ??? ??? ?? ??? ???? ?????, ?? ???? ??? ??????? of the saints. That certainly wasn’t the mind of Christ in using the compassion of Noah to his coming.
???? ??? ????? ???? ??? ???????? ??? ??? ?????? ???? ?????? (?????) ?? ??? ???????? ?? ?? ????? ?? ??.
