And we learn from Eusebius, and Epiphanius, that at this juncture, all who believed in Christ left Jerusalem, and removed to Pella, and other places beyond Jordan; and so escaped the general shipwreck of their country, that we do not read of one who perished in Jerusalem. 17:31-33; Ge 19:17,26; Ex 9:20,21; Pr 22:3; Mt 24:16; Mr 13:15and let them.Nu 16:26; Jer 6:1; 35:11; 37:12; Re 18:4 the days.Isa 34:8; 61:2; Jer 51:6; Ro 2:5; 2Pe 2:9; 3:7all.Le 26:14-33; De 28:15-68; 29:19-28; 32:34,43; Ps 69:22-28; 149:7-9Isa 65:12-16; Da 9:26,27; Zec 11:1-3; 14:1,2; Mal 4:1; Mr 13:19,20 woe.23:29; De 28:56,57; La 4:10; Heb 9:12-17; 13:16; Mt 24:19; Mr 13:17great.19:27,43; Mt 21:41,44; 1Th 2:16; Heb 10:26-31; Jas 5:1; 1Pe 4:17 led.De 28:64-68Jerusalem.Isa 5:5; 63:18; La 1:15; Re 11:2until.Isa 66:12,19; Da 9:27; 12:7; Mal 1:11; Ro 11:25
