The Great Tribulation and False Christs

15

"So when you see the abomination that causes devastation spoken about through the prophet Dani'el standing in the Holy Place" (let the reader understand the allusion),

16

"that will be the time for those in Y'hudah to escape to the hills.

17

If someone is on the roof, he must not go down to gather his belongings from his house;

18

if someone is in the field, he must not turn back to get his coat.

19

What a terrible time it will be for pregnant women and nursing mothers!

20

Pray that you will not have to escape in winter or on Shabbat.

21

For there will be trouble then worse than there has ever been from the beginning of the world until now, and there will be nothing like it again!

22

Indeed, if the length of this time had not been limited, no one would survive; but for the sake of those who have been chosen, its length will be limited.

23

"At that time, if someone says to you, `Look! Here's the Messiah!' or, `There he is!' don't believe him.

24

For there will appear false Messiahs and false prophets performing great miracles -- amazing things! -- so as to fool even the chosen, if possible.

25

There! I have told you in advance!

26

So if people say to you, `Listen! He's out in the desert!' don't go; or, `Look! He's hidden away in a secret room!' don't believe it.

27

For when the Son of Man does come, it will be like lightning that flashes out of the east and fills the sky to the western horizon.

28

Wherever there's a dead body, that's where you find the vultures.
