Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Mark 13:22

_ _ For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders. — No one can read Josephus’ account of what took place before the destruction of Jerusalem without seeing how strikingly this was fulfilled.

_ _ to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect — implying that this, though all but done, will prove impossible. What a precious assurance! (Compare 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
