Mark 1:39 NIV,NKJV

Sermon Bible Commentary - Mark 1:35-39

Mark 1:35-39 I. Ver. 35. There is something very touchingly illustrative of our Saviour's humanity in this verse. He could have prayed upon His couch; yet as He worked after the sun had set, so He departed to pray before the sun had risen. If the Master required to pray, can the servants live without communion with God? To begin the day with God is the only method of setting oneself above all its events, and triumphing over them with perfect mastery. A discourse might be founded on these words,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Mark 1:1-45

Let's turn to Mark's gospel.Mark was a young man when Jesus was crucified, perhaps about twelve years old.

And so in his gospel, you have pretty much Peter's... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Mark 1:1-45

Mark 1:1 . The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This commencement is laconic, beautiful, and perspicuous. Several Greek authors begin their books in this independent way. It asserts the divine and human geniture of Christ. He is the Seed, the Son of the woman, of Abraham, of David. Pagan fable, which once had pure tradition for its origin, asserts the same. To apostatize from this faith is an apostasy from the faith of the primitive world. They all expected the... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Mark 1:36-39

Mark 1:36-39And when they had found Him.The desire of humanity for ChristWhile rejoicing in Divine solitude, the loneliness in which He left the suffering, toiling people was indescribably painful to them. A man born blind does not realize his deprivation, but if there is given him a brief vision of daylight how unutterable his sense of loss when it fades away again. So these people felt themselves deprived of the fresh interest and hopes with which they had been inspired when they lost the... read more
