Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Mark 9:23

Where the "If" Lies October 14, 1883 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth." Mark 9:23 . I believe that our own Authorized Version conveys to the mind of the reader the sense intended by the Evangelist; it is, however, exceedingly probable that in exact words the Revised Version is nearer to the original. It runs thus "And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that believeth." Our... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Mark 9:1-50

Chapter 9And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power ( Mark 9:1 ).Now what did He mean by that? Because those disciples have all died, and we have not yet seen the kingdom of God come with power. Was Jesus mistaken? Well, first of all, no. Jesus was not mistaken. If my interpretation of a scripture would make it appear that Jesus was mistaken, then my... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Mark 9:1-50

Mark 9:2 . And after six days, not counting the two sabbaths, as in Luke 9:28. See on Matthew 17:1. Mark 9:16 . He asked the scribes, what question ye with them? No answer! They had been insulting the disciples because they could not deliver a child, (for so the jews call young people under the age of twenty years) from the power of Satan. 1 Kings 3:7. This was a momentary triumph of the learned adversaries of Christ. They had ridiculed the apostles as impostors, pretending to work... read more

Mark 9:14-29And when He came to His disciples, He saw a great multitude about them.The evil spirit cast outLearn from this narrative-I. The omnipotence of true faith in God. It is not so much the amount of one’s faith as the kind, and the fact that one really has it (Matthew 17:20).II. The powerlessness of Christians without true faith.III. The discreditableness of Christian inefficiency, leading to questionings and discussions that do more harm than good.IV. The inefficiency of Christians... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Mark 9:19

Mark 9:19O faithless generation.Christ’s lament over faithlessnessI. The first thing that seems to be in these words is not anger, indeed, but a very distinct and very pathetic expression of Christ’s infinite pain, because of man’s faithlessness. The element of personal sorrow is most obvious here. It is not only that He is sad for their sakes, that they are so unreceptive, but He feels for Himself, just as we do in our humble measure, the chilling effect of an atmosphere where there is no... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Mark 9:23

Mark 9:23If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.Omnipotence of faithI. The nature of faith. “Taking God at His Word,” is perhaps one of the best definitions ever given. The truths connected with salvation, which require to be cordially believed, may be stated in the following manner.1. That all have sinned.2. I am a guilty sinner, and exposed to the just punishment of sin.3. That Jesus having died for all, is the Saviour of all that truly believe on Him.II. The... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Mark 9:24

Mark 9:24Lord, I believe; help Thou my unbelief.Faith unto salvationThis incident will show us what believing presupposes and consists in.I. The text shows a man that is in earnest. He cried out with tears. They were tears that told how his heart was moved.II. We look at this man, and we find that there is more than a general earnestness about him. We see the tokens of a special and active desire to have the blessings which faith was to secure for him. So he who is awakened to flee from the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Mark 9:14

14 And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them. Ver. 14. See Trapp on " Mat 17:14 " And the scribes questioning with them ] Purposely to put them to shame in their Master’s absence: Marcian the heretic, for his arroding the good names of others, was called Mus Ponticus. (Tertull.) And Epiphanius fitly resembleth heretics to moles, who do all their mischief by working underground. But if once they be above ground, they are... read more
