When Jesus said one would be taken, He was not talking about a rapture. He was speaking of slavery. The Romans were always taking men and women into slavery. They had no mercy and no regard for anyone who was not a Roman citizen. When the Emperor Vespasian ordered the siege by his son, General Titus, there were four legions of men. They captured slaves to grow their food, cook their meat, and use any skills they had to serve the Roman Empire with no pay. Cindye Coates
