Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 34, 35. - I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, the other left. How taken? Not, as some scholars have supposed, taken only to perish, but taken away by the Lord in the way described by St. Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4:17, where he paints how the faithful servant who is living when the Lord returns in glory, will be caught up in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. The other will be left. Thus, as it has been strikingly observed, "the beings who have been most closely connected here below shall, in the twinkling of an eye, be parted for ever."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(34, 35) Two men in one bed.--See Notes on Matthew 24:40-41. The one to be "taken" is probably here, as there, the man who is rescued from destruction. Here there is a variation enough to prove independence, the "two in one bed" being prefixed to the examples given in St. Matthew as an instance of even closer companionship.
