In the context of <a href="/matthew/24.htm">Matthew 24</a>, Jesus is speaking about the trials and tribulations that will occur before His second coming. The call to persevere is a common theme throughout the New Testament, as seen in <a href="/james/1-12.htm">James 1:12</a>, which speaks of the blessedness of those who endure trials. The Greek word for "perseveres" (hypomen&#333;) implies a steadfastness and patience under pressure, suggesting that true faith is demonstrated through continued faithfulness despite challenges.<p><b>to the end</b><br>The "end" here can be understood in multiple ways. It may refer to the end of one's life, the end of the age, or the culmination of the trials mentioned earlier in the chapter. In the immediate context, Jesus is addressing the end times, but the principle of enduring to the end applies to all believers throughout history. This echoes the teachings in <a href="/revelation/2-10.htm">Revelation 2:10</a>, where believers are encouraged to be faithful until death to receive the crown of life. The concept of "the end" also ties into eschatological themes, where perseverance is linked to the ultimate fulfillment of God's kingdom.<p><b>will be saved</b><br>Salvation in this context is both a present reality and a future hope. While believers experience salvation through faith in Christ, the ultimate salvation is realized in the eschatological sense, when Christ returns and establishes His kingdom. This future aspect of salvation is consistent with the teachings in <a href="/romans/13-11.htm">Romans 13:11</a>, which speaks of salvation being nearer now than when we first believed. The assurance of salvation for those who persevere is a promise that underscores the security and hope found in Christ, aligning with the broader biblical narrative of redemption and restoration.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The speaker of this verse, delivering the Olivet Discourse to His disciples, providing prophetic insights about the end times.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/d/disciples.htm">Disciples</a></b><br>The immediate audience of Jesus' teaching, representing all believers who seek to understand the signs of the end times.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/m/mount_of_olives.htm">Mount of Olives</a></b><br>The location where Jesus delivered this discourse, a significant place in biblical prophecy and Jesus' ministry.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/e/end_times.htm">End Times</a></b><br>The period Jesus is describing, characterized by trials, tribulations, and the ultimate return of Christ.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/p/perseverance.htm">Perseverance</a></b><br>The key action required of believers, emphasizing steadfastness in faith amidst challenges.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_call_to_perseverance.htm">The Call to Perseverance</a></b><br>Believers are called to remain steadfast in their faith, even when faced with trials and tribulations.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/u/understanding_salvation.htm">Understanding Salvation</a></b><br>Salvation is not just a one-time event but involves a continuous journey of faith and endurance.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_trials.htm">The Role of Trials</a></b><br>Trials are not to be feared but embraced as opportunities to strengthen faith and reliance on God.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/e/endurance_as_evidence_of_faith.htm">Endurance as Evidence of Faith</a></b><br>True faith is evidenced by the ability to endure and remain faithful to the end.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/e/encouragement_in_community.htm">Encouragement in Community</a></b><br>Believers should support and encourage one another in their journey of perseverance.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_matthew_24.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Matthew 24</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/is_enduring_to_the_end_our_salvation.htm">Does enduring to the end ensure our salvation?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_does_'dominion_and_endure'_mean.htm">What does "Dominion and Endure to the End" mean?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_does_'bought_with_a_price'_mean.htm">What does the Bible say about perseverance?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_does_the_bible_say_on_perseverance.htm">What does the Bible say about perseverance?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/matthew/24.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(13) <span class= "bld">He that shall endure unto the end</span> <span class= "bld">. . .</span>--The words have at once a higher and lower sense. Endurance to the end of life is in every case the condition of salvation, in the full meaning of the word. But the context rather leads us to see in the "end" the close of the period of which our Lord speaks, <span class= "ital">i.e.,</span> the destruction of Jerusalem; and so the words "shall be saved" at least include deliverance from the doom of those who were involved in that destruction.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/matthew/24.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 13.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">He that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved</span> (<a href="/matthew/10-22.htm">Matthew 10:22</a>). Here is a note of consolation amid the refrain of woe. Patience and perseverance shall be crowned at the last. "The end" means primarily the destruction of Jerusalem, and the salvation promised is safety in that day of peril. It is believed that no Christians perished in the siege or after it (see ver. 16). But <span class="greek">&#x3c4;&#x1f73;&#x3bb;&#x3bf;&#x3c2;</span>, being here used without the article (differently from vers. 6 and, 14), must not be restricted to one allusion, but must be taken more generally, as indeed a universal axiom, equivalent to "finally," as long as endurance is needed. And the salvation must refer to the soul's sentence at the last day, not to any mere safety of body and life. What the maxim says is this: patient continuance in well doing, resignation under persecutions and afflictions, holding fast the one faith even though it lead to the martyr's death, - this shall win the crown of eternal blessedness. The Christian must not be led astray by false teachers nor offended by the prevalence of scandals, nor let his love be chilled, if he would gain the reward, share in Messiah's glory, and save his soul. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/matthew/24-13.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">But</span><br /><span class="grk">&#948;&#8050;</span> <span class="translit">(de)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunction<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_1161.htm">Strong's 1161: </a> </span><span class="str2">A primary particle; but, and, etc.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">the [one who]</span><br /><span class="grk">&#8001;</span> <span class="translit">(ho)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> </span><span class="str2">The, the definite article.
