Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Mark 13:12

Ver. 12,13. This is but an amplification of the fifth sign, given us Mark 13:9, viz. a furious persecution, eminently made good in the Jewish persecution before the destruction of Jerusalem; in the pagan persecution, for three hundred years after Christ; and in the popish persecutions at this day. See Poole on "Matthew 24:9". See Poole on "Matthew 24:10".
