New Defender's Study Bible Notes

24:31 gather together his elect. Christ will return to the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem (Acts 1:10-12; Zechariah 14:4), and it is either there or somewhere else in Jerusalem that He will “sit upon the throne of His glory” to judge the living nations (Matthew 25:31-32). Even before that, however, all believers who have managed to escape the death squads of the Beast after refusing the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:16-17; 20:4) will be translated by angels to Christ’s presence, and those who had been martyred during that period will also be resurrected and “live” and reign with Him (Revelation 20:4).
