Glossa Ordinaria

Marcos 13:11

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (non occ.) Another anxiety might also arise in the breasts of the disciples. Lest therefore after hearing that they were to be brought before kings and rulers, they should fear that their want of science and eloquence should render them unable to answer, our Lord consoles them by saying, But when they shall lead you and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Marcos 13:14

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (non occ.) After speaking of the things which were to happen before the destruction of the city, the Lord now foretells those which happened about the destruction itself of the city, saying, But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand.) (Non in Gloss. sed ap. Theoph.) Or rather went out of their own accord, being led by the Holy Ghost. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Marcos 13:15-16

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] It goes on, And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house; for it is a desirable thing to be saved even naked from such a destruction. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Marcos 13:17-18

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] It goes on: But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days. (non occ.) Again, after having mentioned this double impediment to flight, which might arise either from the desire of taking away property, or from having children to carry, He touches upon the third obstacle, namely, that coming from the season; saying, And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
