As/Like
Hi, everyone
In the Holy Bible, there's a widely known, extremely important verse the reads like this: "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be." (Matthew 24:21)
I'd like to know if it would be grammatically correct to use "as" or "like" instead of "such as", and add the word "there". Example: "For then there will be great tribulation, LIKE/AS THERE has not been since the beginning of the world until this time”?
Thank you very much!

You can use "like there has never been " of "like there has not been". The first sounds better. Using "as there" sounds funny to me.
