Albert Barnes Commentary
"And ye shall be hated of all men for my name`s sake: but he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved." — Matthew 10:22 (ASV)
You shall be hated by all men. That is, of all kinds of men. The human heart would be opposed to them, because it is opposed to Christ.
But he that endures to the end. That is, to the end of life, be it longer or shorter. He who bears all these unspeakable sufferings, and who does not shrink and apostatize, will give decisive evidence of attachment to me, and shall enter into heaven. See Revelation 3:21-22.
