“that Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.” (Page 168)
“There remains the third way of interpreting these words of our Lord, it is to look upon these predictions about the end of the Jewish age as being still future. This is the right and only key to understand these verses.” (Page 170)
“The condition of salvation that one must endure to the end is nowhere given to the Christian believer, who is saved and safe in the Lord Jesus Christ.” (Pages 169–170)
“the record of this prediction of the fall of Jerusalem under Titus is not at all given in Matthew twenty-four” (Page 168)
“It is strange that believers in the return of the Lord Jesus Christ can fail to see the strongly marked difference between His visible and glorious return, His coming in power and great Glory, taking place in the land of Israel and His coming for His Church, as revealed exclusively through the great Apostle. It is not strange that where this distinction is given up confusion and error result.” (Pages 175–176)
Pronounced as one of the best expositions of Matthew, of great help to teachers.

Arno Gaebelein (1861–1945) is considered one of America’s truly great Bible teachers. His editorship of the unique Bible study magazine, Our Hope, and his authorship of scores of volumes gave him an international reputation.
He influenced many during his ministry over the last fifty years in many parts of the United States and Canada. A pioneer in the Bible conference movement, he was an original member of the editorial board that assisted Dr. C. I. Scofield in the preparation of the Scofield Reference Bible.
The Annotated Bible, published by Gaebelein, has been a standard reference work for most of a century. The Selected Words of A. C. Gaebelein includes thirteen valuable books and commentaries discuss the Bible’s relevance to world events.
