(The Greek word for "LOVE" (agapé 26 in Greek, noun) only appears 1 time in Matthew, and that 1 time is found in Matthew 24:12).



Matthew 24:50: "the lord (of) that slave will-come on (a) DAY which he-does-expect not, and at (an) hour which he-does-know not."

Matthew 24:38: "For as in those days before the flood they-were eating and drinking, marrying and giving-in-marriage, until which day Noah entered into the ark,"

Matthew 24:39: "and did not know until the flood came and took-away everyone, so also will-be the coming (of) the Son (of) Man."

A similar account in Luke reads:

Luke 17:27: "they-were-eating, drinking, marrying, being-given-in-marriage, until which day Noah entered into the ark and the flood came and destroyed everyone."

Luke 21:22: "Because these are days (of) VENGEANCE, (that) all the (things) having-been-written (may) be-fulfilled."

Hebrews 10:30: "For we-know the (One) having-said: “VENGEANCE (is for) Me, says the Lord, I will-give-back-in-return”; and again: “(The) Lord will-judge His people”."

Matthew 24:13: "But the (one) having-endured (hüpomeinas 5278 in Greek) to (the) end — this (one) will-be-saved."

Hebrews 10:36: "For you-have need (of) endurance (hüpomonēs 5281 in Greek), in-order-that having-done the will (of) God, you-might-receive the promise."

(The Greek word for "endurance" (hupomoné 5281 in Greek, noun) used in Hebrews 10:36 comes from the Greek word for "having-endured" (hupomenó 5278 in Greek, verb) which is used in Matthew 24:13).



Matthew 24:30: "And then the sign (of) the Son (of) Man will-appear in (the) heaven. And at-that-time all the tribes (of) the earth will-beat-their-breasts. And they-will-see the Son (of) man COMING on the clouds (of) heaven with power and great glory."

Matthew 24:49: "and begins to-strike his fellow-slaves, and is-eating and drinking with the (ones) being-drunk —"

Matthew 24:50: "the lord (of) that slave WILL-COME on (a) day which he-does not expect, and at (an) hour which he-does not know."

Hebrews 10:37: "For yet (in a) very little while, “the (One) coming WILL-COME and will not DELAY."

Hebrews 10:39: "But we are not (of a) drawing-back resulting-in destruction (apōleian 684 in Greek), but (of a) faith resulting-in (the) preserving (of the) SOUL."

(The Greek word for "destruction" (apóleia 684 in Greek, noun) used in Hebrews 10:39 comes from a presumed derivative of the Greek word for "be-destroyed" (apollumi 622 in Greek, verb) which is used in Luke 21:18).
