ISB ~ Mark 8 v38
when he comes:The Father has given Christ the authority to judge the living and the dead (Jn 5:22-29; Acts 10:42). At the appointed time he will reward the righteous with eternal life (Rom 2:7) and punish those who are ashamed of him with eternal fire (Mt 25:31, 41-46; 2 Tim 2:11-13; CCC 678-79). with the holy angels: Jesus alludes to the prophecy of Zech 14:5.
• Zechariah describes the “day of the Lord”, when God will bring judgment on the unfaithful of Israel by gathering armies against Jerusalem to plunder the city (Zech 14:1-2). Once the faithful have evacuated the city, God is expected to “come” with his “holy ones” (Zech 14:5; angels) and there be established “king” over the earth (Zech 14:9). These events transpired with the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, which prefigures the glorious return of Christ at the end of history and the full unveiling of his kingdom.
