Context of Matthew 24:9

7People in one country will attack the people in another country. Kings and their armies will fight against other kings and their armies. In some places, people will be hungry, with no food. The ground will shake in many different places. 8All those things will be like the first pains that a mother has before her baby is born. Then people will take hold of you and they will give you pain. They will even kill some of you. People in every country will hate you because you are my disciples. 10At that time, many people who believe in me will stop believing. They will put some of my disciples in the power of their rulers. They will hate each other. 11Also at that time, many people will say that they are prophets from God. Their message is false, but many people will believe them.

Commentaries on Matthew 24:9

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted - Rather, Then they will deliver you up to affliction, . By a bold figure of speech, affliction is here personified. They are to be delivered into affliction's own hand, to be harassed by all the modes of inventive torture. Ye shall be hated of all nations - Both Jew and Gentile will unite in persecuting and tormenting you. Perhaps means all the Gentiles, as in the parallel places in Mark 13:9-11, and in Luke…Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 9To be afflicted - By persecution, imprisonment, scourging, etc. “They shall deliver you up to councils” (Mark).
