rwp - Mark:13:14

rwp@Mark:13:14 @{Standing where he ought not} (\hestkota hopou ou dei\). strkjv@Matthew:24:15| has "standing in the holy place" (\hestos en topoi hagii\), neuter and agreeing with \bdelugma\ (abomination), the very phrase applied in 1Macc. strkjv@1:54 to the altar to Zeus erected by Antiochus Epiphanes where the altar to Jehovah was. Mark personifies the abomination as personal (masculine), while strkjv@Luke:21:20| defines it by reference to the armies (of Rome, as it turned out). Songs:the words of Daniel find a second fulfilment, Rome taking the place of Syria (Swete). See on ¯Matthew:24:15| for this phrase and the parenthesis inserted in the words of Jesus ("Let him that readeth understand"). See also on ¯Matthew:24:16-25| for discussion of details in strkjv@Mark:13:14-22|.
