Wesley's Notes for Luke 21:36

21:36 Watch ye therefore - This is the general conclusion of all that precedes. That ye may be counted worthy - This word sometimes signifies an honour conferred on a person, as when the apostles are said to be counted worthy to suffer shame for Christ, #Acts 5:41|. Sometimes meet or becoming: as when John the Baptist exhorts, to bring fruits worthy of repentance, #Lu 3:8|. And so to be counted worthy to escape, is to have the honour of it, and to be fitted or prepared for it. To stand - With joy and triumph: not to fall before him as his enemies.
