# Matthew 24 General Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Structure and formatting
|
||||
|
||||
In this chapter, Jesus begins to prophesy about the future from that time until he returns as king of everything. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/prophet]])
|
||||
|
||||
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
||||
|
||||
#### "The end of the age"
|
||||
|
||||
In this chapter, Jesus gives an answer to his disciples when they ask how they will know when he will come again. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-apocalypticwriting]])
|
||||
|
||||
#### The example of Noah
|
||||
|
||||
In the time of Noah, God sent a great flood to punish people for their sins. He warned them many times about this coming flood, but it actually began suddenly. In this chapter, Jesus draws a comparison between that flood and the last days. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]])
|
||||
|
||||
### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter
|
||||
|
||||
#### "Let"
|
||||
|
||||
The ULB uses this word to begin several commands of Jesus, such as "let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains" (24:16), "let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house" (24:17), and "let him who is in the field not return to take his cloak" (24:18). There are many different ways to form a command. Translators must select the most natural ways in their own languages. Note that this word does not mean "permit."
