COMING OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND OF THE SON OF MAN. (Luke 17:20-37) when, &c.--To meet the erroneous views not only of the Pharisees, but of the disciples themselves, our Lord addresses both, announcing the coming of the kingdom under different aspects. It cometh not with observation--with watching or lying in wait, as for something outwardly imposing and at once revealing itself.
