Context of Luke 17:25

23And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them . 24For as the lightning, that lighteneth from the one part under heaven, shineth to the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation. 26And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
