Behold He cometh 'with clouds '. Here with clouds means 'on a cloud ', or 'on his glory ' according to Strong 's dictionary. Here this coming is not for the bride because in 1 Thes. it is written that "that the day of the LORD so cometh as a theif in the night ". And Word cant disagree with Itself. So this coming is not for the Rapture of the Bride. Because the coming for the Rapture is not a public show. And as in reference with Wesley 's note above, he said every eye means Jews in particular shall see Him. As Joseph of old married a gentile bride and when he manifested himself upon his bretheren, his bride was in the palace. So, Joseph of ild is the perfect type of Christ. His bride will also be in the palace of God as a result of rapture and after that Christ will reveal Himself on His jews bretheren. That is the coming which has been talked about in this verse.
