Flee into the Mountains from Judaea: The next stage of CHRIST teachings from Matthew 24 is the command to flee into the mountains from Judaea. This was the command once they saw the abomination of desolation stand in the holy place.
The previous post in this series was on the gospel and the kingdom and the abomination of desolation. Let’s get into the fleeing to the wilderness and what this means.
Matthew 24:16-21 KJV
[16] Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: [17] Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: [18] Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. [19] And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! [20] But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: [21] For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
The above scriptures pose a very scary statement. If we consider all the atrocities that have taken place throughout the world, known and unknown, we should become frightened at the possibility of even worse happening to the children of Israel in the future!
If this is the case, this is what we have to look forward to happening again in the future. The great tribulation was and is the harshest thing that has ever happened to a people from the beginning of the world to this time. But who was/is the great tribulation spoken of by CHRIST aimed at? In other words, who is and was the tribulation spoken of by CHRIST for?
Luke 21:20-23 KJV
[20] And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. [21] Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. [22] For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. [23] But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
“This people” referred to the Israelites, primarily Judah (this is because they were the ones in the land, along with Benjamin and Levi)! As Daniel, the prophet also said, “for under the whole heaven it has not been done as it has been done upon Jerusalem.”
They will be in great tribulation. How long will they be in great distress or great tribulation? To be continued…

And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. The disciples asked, “Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?”
