Matthew Chapter 24, Verse 18
From BibleWiki
18: και ο εν τω αγρω μη επιστρεψατω οπισω αραι τα ιματια αυτου
18: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his
clothes.
18: And he that is in the field, let him not go back to take his
coat.
Return back to take his clothes. His clothes which, in working, he had laid aside; or which in fleeing he should throw off as an incumbrance. Clothes here means the outer garment, commonly laid aside when men worked, or ran. See Barnes "Mt 5:40".
These directions were followed. It is said that the Christians, warned by these predictions, fled from the city to Pella, and other places beyond Jordan; so that there is not evidence that a single Christian perished in Jerusalem. Eusebius, Hist. Eccl., lib. 3, ch. 6
