And the stars of heaven shall fall, etc..] The Jewish Rabbins and doctors, who fell off from the written word, and compiled their “Misna”, or oral law, their book of traditions, and set it up above the Bible, the foundation of which was laid immediately upon their dispersion. And the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken; the ordinances of the legal dispensation, which were shaken before, but now so shaken as to be removed; compare (<370206>Haggai 2:6) with (<581226>Hebrews 12:26,27); (see Gill on “<402429>Matthew 24:29”).
