Where, Lord? they asked. He replied, where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather — the question where produces the proverb rather than a location. Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather: the judgment will find its object as naturally as vultures find a carcass. The return requires no geographic specification because its occurrence will be as self-evident as the gathering of birds over a body.
