Looking at the screen you will see the Cross References for this verse. Cross References are the best interpretation of scripture. Click on the "C" column and this will bring up the bible passage. Always read the entire chapter and look for who is speaking, who is being spoken to, what the topic is. Asking these types of questions will help you see what the passage is about. We see from these questions that this is about the second coming of Christ. I haven't done an in-depth study of this passage so upon first reading it appears that Matthew 24:28 which says "Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather" then Matthew 24:29 says but immediately after the tribulation of those days.... so it appears upon first reading the corpse and vultures are something that will be happening during the great tribulation. There are different views of interpretaion. You can find these at Preceptaustin.org website. I believe it is a future time period. Blessings - Val |
