for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also shall the Son of Man be to this generation.

'A queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo, greater than Solomon here!

'Men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, because they reformed at the proclamation of Jonah; and lo, greater than Jonah here!

that the blood of all the prophets, that is being poured forth from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation;

from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, who perished between the altar and the house; yes, I say to you, It shall be required from this generation.

and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.

verily I say to you -- This generation may not pass away till all may have come to pass;
