Disciples

"2 men on a couch, one taken"

 

17: 22 And he said to the disciples Will come days when ye will long one of the days of the Son of man to see and will not see. 23 And they will say to you: Behold there, behold here; do not go away nor flow. 24 For as the lightning flashing out of the one part under heaven to the other part under heaven shines, so will be the Son of man in the day of him. 25 But first it behoves him many things to suffer, and to be rejected from generation this. 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of man; 27 they were eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage, until which day entered Noah into the ark, and came the flood and destroyed all. 28 Likewise as it was in the days of Lot they were eating drinking, buying, selling, planting, building: 29 but on which day

went forth Lot from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed all. 30 According to the same things it will be in which day the Son of man is revealed. 31 In that day who will be on the roof and the goods of him in the house, let him not come down to take them, and the one in a field likewise not let him turn back to the things behind. 32 Remember the wife of Lot. 33 Whoever seeks the life of him to preserve, he will lose it, and whoever will lose, will preserve it. 34 I tell you in this night there will be two men on couch one, the one will be taken and the other will be left 35 there will be two women grinding together; the one will be taken but the other will be left. 37 And answering they say to him. Where Lord? And he said to them: Where the body, there also the eagles will be gathered together.

them

"pray . . . . widow & judge"

 

18:1 And he told a parable them to they must always pray and not faint.. them and not to faint 2 saying; judge a certain there was a certain city God not fearing and man not regarding. 3 And a widow there was in city that, and she came to him saying: Vindicate me from the opponent of me. 4 And he would not for a time: but after these things he said in himself If indeed God I fear not nor man regard, 5 at least because to cause me trouble widow this I will vindicate her, lest in the end coming she exhausts me. 6 And said the Lord: Hear ye what the Judge of unrighteousness says; 7 and God by no means will he make the vindication of the chosen ones of him crying

to him day and night, and be patient over them? 8 I tell you that he will make the vindication of them quickly. Nevertheless the Son of man coming then will he find the faith on the earth? nor man regard, 5 at least because to cause me trouble widow this I will vindicate her, lest in the end coming she exhausts me. 6 And said the Lord: Hear ye what the Judge of unrighteousness says; 7 and God by no means will he make the vindication of the chosen ones of him crying to him day and night, and be patient over them? 8 I tell you that he will make the vindication of them quickly. Nevertheless the Son of man coming then will he find the faith on the earth?
