What was the escaping remnant in Matthew 24?
The escaping remnant in Matthew 24 is a mixed group of Jews who flee Jerusalem at the midpoint of the tribulation. It includes workers in the field, young mothers, and pregnant women about to deliver. They leave the area and come down to the mountain, as described beginning in Matthew 24:15.
Les teaches that the escaping remnant is a mixed group of Jews who leave the area of Jerusalem at the midpoint of the tribulation. He calls them the escaping remnant and says this was in Matthew 24, beginning at verse 15. He describes them as workers in the field, young mothers, and pregnant ladies about to be delivered, all coming down to the mountain. This takes place after the tribulation, as the thousand-year kingdom begins, in contrast to the prior period when everything was under the curse and children could not play with wild animals.
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
