Commentary
Commentary on Luke 17:31
Theological / DevotionalIn that day. Compare the dual prophecy of Matt. 24:15-20, where the experience of Christians living in Jerusalem when the city fell to the Romans, in A.D. 70, represents, in measure, the experience of Christians prior to the second coming of Christ (see on Matt. 24:16, 17).
Upon the housetop. For comment see on Matt. 24:17.
His stuff. When life itself is at stake worldly possession have little value, and to endeavor to save them may lead to the loss of life itself. Possession in Sodom were of no value to Lot when he had to flee; he was fortunate to escape with his life (see on Gen. 19:17).
