EXPLANATION

Verse 11. Jesus Christ did not consent to the petition they made him, because there will be another time for signs and wonders, that is his second coming, when the powers of heaven shall be moved, and the moon refuse her light. This his first coming is not to terrify man, but to instruct and store his mind with lessons of humility, and every other virtue. Theophy.
