Jesus is not saying that people in Noah's day and in Lot's day were destroyed simply because they pursued the normal activities of eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, and building.
UJesu katsho ukuthi abantu ngesikhathi sikaNowa langesikhathi sikaLothi babhujiswa ngenxa yokwenza izinto ezijayelekileyo ezinjengokudla, ukunatha, ukuthenga, ukuthengisa, ukuhlanyela lokwakha.
