Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

The thing is certain that Christ will come, and there is a certain time appointed for his coming; but there was no need that the apostle should write about this, and therefore he had no revelation given him; nor should they or we enquire into this secret, which the Father has reserved in his own power.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

times--the general and indefinite term for chronological periods. seasons--the opportune times (Da 7:12; Time denotes quantity; season, quality. Seasons are parts of times. ye have no need--those who watch do not need to be told when the hour will come, for they are always ready [BENGEL]. cometh--present: expressing its speedy and awful certainty.
