Matthew 24:20

“Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,”

Verse in context — Matthew 24

Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.

But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!

Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,

for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

Jesus as the promised Messiah, fulfilling Old Testament prophecy.
