Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 1:36
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him; and they found him, and say unto him, All are seeking thee.They that were with him ... would mean at least the other three disciples called in this chapter. Luke reported in this context the coming of a multitude who sought to restrain Christ's departure from them (Luke 4:42). read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Mark 1:36
36. And Simon and they that were with him followed after him—rather, "pressed after Him." Luke (Luke 4:42) says, "The multitudes sought after Him"; but this would be a party from the town. Mark, having his information from Peter himself, speaks only of what related directly to him. "They that were with him" would probably be Andrew his brother, James and John, with a few other choice brethren. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Mark 1:35-39
1. The first preaching tour of Galilee 1:35-39 (cf. Luke 4:42-44)While these verses record the itinerant ministry of Jesus, Mark’s emphasis was clearly on Jesus’ spiritual preparation for that ministry. It highlighted His dependence on His Father. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Mark 1:35-45
C. Jesus’ early ministry throughout Galilee 1:35-45Jesus made several preaching tours throughout Galilee. Mark summarized the first of these (Mark 1:35-39) and then related one especially significant event during that tour (Mark 1:40-45). This section continues to present Jesus as the Servant of the Lord who went about doing the messianic work that His Father had assigned to Him. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Mark 1:36-37
Simon and his companions-who they were is unimportant-did not understand Jesus’ need for prayer. They seem to have had the common attitude that when things are favorable we do not need God’s help. Their words implied annoyance. Apparently they felt Jesus was not taking advantage of His popularity to promote His mission. They did not realize that God directed Jesus’ mission, not the responses of people. This is the first instance of Peter’s impetuous leadership that Mark recorded."His [Jesus’]... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 1:1-45
Baptism of Jesus. Beginning of the Ministry1-8. Appearance of John the Baptist (Matthew 3:1; Luke 3:1). See on Mt and Lk. St. Mark’s Gospel, being based on the reminiscences of Peter, begins with the public ministry of Jesus, or, rather, with His connexion with the Baptist, through which Peter and other apostles first became acquainted with Him. It, therefore, omits the birth narratives, although it is possible that St. Mark was acquainted with them (see on Mark 6:3).1. The beginning] It is... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Mark 1:36
(36) Simon and they that were with him.—This part of the narrative is given by St. Luke also, but not by St. Matthew. The definite statement who they were that followed after Him is, however, peculiar to St. Mark; while St. Luke alone gives their motive: “they stayed Him that He should not depart from them.” They would fain have kept Him at Capernaum, that He might teach them and heal their sick. This is to some extent, perhaps, implied in the words “All men seek for Thee.” read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Mark 1:1-45
St. Mark Mark 1:1 A great epoch was exhausted, and passing away to give place to another, the first utterances of which had already been heard in the north, and which awaited but the Initiator, to be revealed. He came. The soul the most full of love, the most sacredly virtuous, the most deeply inspired by God and the future, that men have yet seen on earth Jesus. He bent over the corpse of the dead world, and whispered a word of faith. Over the clay that had lost all of man but the movement... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 1:29-39
29. Many sick people healed (Matthew 4:23-25; Matthew 8:14-17; Mark 1:29-39; Luke 4:38-44)Further examples of the ministry of Jesus show the presence and power of the kingdom of God in healing those afflicted by Satan (Matthew 4:23-25; Mark 1:29-34). (For the significance of the kingdom of God see earlier section, ‘Jesus and the Kingdom’.) On one occasion when Jesus was staying in Capernaum, he went outside the town to find a quiet place to pray to his Father. Peter thought he was losing... read more
