36 "No one knows, however, when that day and hour will come—neither the angels in heaven nor the Son;*24.36: Some manuscripts do not have nor the Son. the Father alone knows. 37 *Gn 6.5-8The coming of the Son of Man will be like what happened in the time of Noah. 38 In the days before the flood people ate and drank, men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat; 39 *Gn 7.6-24yet they did not realize what was happening until the flood came and swept them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes.
