“For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
· Day of His wrath: For the great day of His wrath “has come”—the issue is whether the Day of the Lord has just begun or is soon to follow. The Greek verb “has come” can look backwards, indicating that the Day already arrived or it can look forward as something to occur soon.
· The narrow Day of the Lord is the 24-hour day Jesus enters Jerusalem. The broad Day of the Lord starts at the Tribulation and ends after the millennium. It lasts for 1,000 years (2 Pet. 3:8).
Isaiah 13:6 Wail, for the day of the LORD is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.
Jeremiah 30:7 alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it; and it is the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.
