LUKE 19:44 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.”
They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God's visitation — because you did not recognize the time of God's visitation (ton kairon tēs episkopēs sou, the season of your visitation): the episkopē is the divine visit — the same word as in the Benedictus (1:68) and the widow of Nain response (7:16). The failure to recognize the divine visitation is the cause of the judgment.
