"You have said so," Jesus replied. "But I say to all of you: From now on, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven." Matthew 26:64 NIV.

I´ve had a lot of discomfort in trying to understand this passage. What exactly does ¨from now¨ or ¨hereafter¨ mean? Does Jesus mean he will immediately sit at the right hand? Or is it in the future?

People, who know greek, what exactly does ἀπ’ἄρτι mean? Is it in the future or a present action that’s going to take place? I´ve heard it means now, and others say it means future.
