Footnotes

  1. 16:27 The parousia and final judgment are described in Mt 25:31 in terms almost identical with these.
  2. 16:28 Coming in his kingdom: since the kingdom of the Son of Man has been described as “the world” and Jesus’ sovereignty precedes his final coming in glory (Mt 13:38, 41), the coming in this verse is not the parousia as in the preceding but the manifestation of Jesus’ rule after his resurrection; see notes on Mt 13:38, 41.

27 For the Son of Man(A) is going to come(B) in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done.(C)

28 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
