Matthew Poole and continuators on Matthew 16:28

28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, who shall not tast of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Mark saith, Chap. 9.1. t[illegible: 2 letters]l they have seen the Kingdom of God come with Power, Luke Chap. 9.27. saith, no more than [illegible: 1 letter]ill t[illegible: 1 letter]ey have seen the Kingdom of God. T[illegible: 1 letter]ere be some standing here, that shall not tast of Death, that is, that shall not dye, Heb. 2.9. It is the same with not seeing Death, Iohn 8.51, 52. Heb. 11.5. The great que[illegible: 1 letter]tion is, What is here meant by the Son [illegible: 1 letter]f Man coming in his Kingdom. It cannot be [illegible: 1 word] of his second coming to Judgment, spoken of immediately before, for all who [illegible: 2 letters]ood there have long since tasted of Death. Yet is not that Day come. Some understand it of that sight of Christs Glory, which Peter, and Iames and Iohn had at Christs Transfiguration, of which we shall read in the next Chapter, and I should be very inclinable to this Sense, (for there was a Glymps of the Glory of the Father mentioned, v. 27.) were it not for those Words added by Luke, till they have seen the Kingdom of God come with Power. This inclineth others to think, that it is to be understood of Christs shewing forth his Power in the Destruction of Ierusalem. But the most generally received Opinion, and which seemeth to be best is, that the coming of the Son of Man here meant, is, his Resurrection from the dead, his Ascension into Heaven, and sending the holy Spirit, after which the Kingdom of Grace, came with a mighty Power, subduing all Nations to the Lord Jesus Christ. Rom. 1.4. he was declared, or determined to be the Son of God with Power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the Resurrection from the Dead. And when after his Resurrection from the Dead, they asked him, Acts 1.6. whether he would at that time restore the Kingdom to Israel. He puts them off, and tells them for an Answer, v. 8. But you shall receive Power, after the Holy Ghost is come upon you, and you shall be Witnesses unto me, both in Ierusalem, and in all Iudea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost parts of the Earth. And then v. 9. He in their sight ascended up into Heaven. Then did the Kingdom of the Son of Man come with Power, Acts 2.33, 34, 35, 36. they knowing assuredly that the Son of Man, whom the Jews had crucified, was made both Lord and Christ, as v. 36. and as v. 34, 35. set at Gods right Hand (according to the Prophesie of David, Psal. 110. v. 1.) until his Enemies should be made his Foot-stool.
