  • Matthew Study Notes—Chapter 24
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
    • 24:8

      pangs of distress: The Greek word literally refers to the intense pain experienced during childbirth. While it is used here to refer to distress, pain, and suffering in a general sense, it may suggest that like birth pains the foretold troubles and suffering will increase in frequency, intensity, and duration in the time period before the great tribulation mentioned at Mt 24:21.
