• This verse is the “Great Divide” in subject matter.

• This is the most fundamental part of understanding Matthew 24.
Keys to Unlock Mt. 24
Divisions of Mt. 24
• The Disciples Questions (vs. 1-3).• Warnings against false signs of the destruction
of the temple and Jerusalem (4-14).• True signs of the destruction of temple and
Jerusalem (15-28)• Figurative/Apocalyptic language used to
describe the destruction of temple and Jerusalem (29-35)
• The End of the World (vs. 36-44)• Be Ready Always (45-51)
• Beware of False Messiah’s (4-5)
• Beware of wars, rumors of wars and famine (6-8).
• Persecution does not signify Destruction of Jerusalem (9).
• Apostasy does not signify the end (10-12).

•Jewish Dignitaries Have Fallen (29; Isa. 13:10: Ezek. 32:7-8).

•You could know when this coming would be (32-35).
The End of the World (vs. 36-44)
• This is a completely new subject and a new day
– You could know when the first would happen.– First section (vs. 4-35) “days” (19, 22, 29).– 2nd section (36-51) “day” (36, 42, 44, 50).
– No Clue about timing of 2nd Coming (36-41).
