2. Beheading of John the Baptist. Mark 6:14-29(Parallels: Matthew 14:1-12; Luke 9:7-9.) 14And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad;) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves [miraculous powers work] in him. 15Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets. 16But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded:6 he is risen from the dead.... read more

the Widening Fields Mark 6:1-20 In the opening paragraph of this chapter, we learn of hatred and rejection of those who had enjoyed the rich privileges of being the neighbors and associates of our Lord from His earliest days. They could not discern the divine in the human, the heavenly under the earthly veil. The Savior, therefore, driven from their towns, goes about among the villages, depriving Himself of the companionship of His disciples, in order to spread the good news as far as... read more

"He could there do no mighty work." Not that He in Himself was unable, for His hands laid on a few sick folk brought healing, but that the condition of wilful and persistent unbelief limited the power of the people to receive. This is the first sending forth of the twelve. There are three definite points of equipment, and they cover the whole area of necessity, from minute detail to the utmost limit of their work. 1. They were "to go shod with sandals." 2. They were to go two by two. 3.... read more

The Beheading of John the Baptist Mark 6:14-30 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. John was great in his separation unto Christ. He lived apart from the people In a vow of separation unto God. Here is a part of the annunciation of the angel Gabriel of John's birth. "He shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink." This was a part of his separation from the world. Does not our God call us all to a similar separation? Here is His call, "Come out from among them, and... read more

Herod, or, Almost But Lost Mark 6:14-31 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The record of Herod shall ever remain as a warning to those who are almost saved. Let us suggest a few others who came close to the door of entrance unto eternal life, and yet were lost. 1. There was Felix as described in Acts 24:24-27 . (1) Felix sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. Observe, then, that Felix had a notable preacher to unfold to him the Gospel. Paul led his thousands to Christ. He turned the... read more

SECTION 3. Jesus’ Ministry Throughout Galilee and In The Surrounding Regions (4:35-9:32). After the initial opening up of the story of Jesus with its continual emphasis on His unique authority, Who He was and what He had come to do (Mark 4:1-3), and the series of parables which have indicated how the Kingly Rule of God was to expand (Mark 4:1-34), Mark now indicates how this expansion continued to occur through the ministry of Jesus in Galilee and the surrounding regions. At the same time he... read more

The Wider Ministry begins - the Apostles Are Sent Out - Opposition Continues (6:6a-56). Having established that Jesus is Lord of the elements, Lord over evil spirits and Lord over life and death, Mark now deals with the widening of His ministry, although again this does not take place without disappointments and opposition as before. Jesus sends His disciples out to preach with great success, although ever in the background is the shadow of Herod Antipas who was responsible for the death of... read more

‘And King Herod heard of him, for his name had become known, and he said “John the Baptiser is risen from the dead, and that is why these powers work in him”. But others said, “It is Elijah”. And others said, “It is a prophet, even as one of the prophets”. But Herod when he heard of it said, “John whom I beheaded, he is risen”.’ This Herod was Herod Antipas, son of Herod the Great. He was tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea from his father’s death, the date of which is not certain, dating anywhere... read more

The Response of King Herod In View Of His Previous Execution of John the Baptiser (6:14-29). Meanwhile it was inevitable that news of the activities and power of Jesus, and of His disciples, would reach Herod’s palace through his spy system, and when it did his conscience struck him, for he had had John the Baptiser executed, and hearing about the miracles, he thought that this must be John come back to life, and was greatly troubled. This section is inserted here for a number of reasons. 'b7... read more
