The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:7-13

The apostolic commission. " The harvest truly is plenteous" and " the labourers are few," therefore "the Lord of the harvest" would "send forth labourcrs late his harvest." To this end "he called unto him the twelve," and gave them the grandest commission ever entrusted to man. let us consider that commission in— I. ITS IMPOSED CONDITIONS . 1 . In company: "by two and two." Thus for mutual encouragement and help. For the heart of the strongest may fail in presence of... read more

Missionaries. I. MISSIONARIES MUST NOT BE , AS A RULE , SOLITARY MEN . For counsel, defense, cheerfulness, "two are better than one." Without artificially imitating this example, in natural and quiet ways it will be found good to follow. II. MISSIONARIES , AS A RULE , MUST BE FRUGAL MEN . NO luxuries; bare necessaries compose their outfit. It is like the soldier in "marching order," or the exploring traveler. Luxury is a relative term, but the Christian... read more

Parallel passages: Matthew 9:35-38 ; Matthew 10:5-42 ; Luke 9:1-6 .— The mission of the twelve. I. THEIR FIRST MISSIONARY ENTERPRISE . Our Lord had already, as recorded in Luke 3:1-38 ., made choice of his twelve disciples, to accompany himself during their time of training, and subsequently to go forth on their apostolic mission and with indubitable credentials of their commission. The time had now come for their first brief and tentative effort in that direction. They... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:11

Shake off the dust ( τὸν χοῦν ) literally, the soil— that is under your feet . St. Matthew and St. Luke use the word ( κονιορτὸν ) " dust." A very significant action. The dust was shaken off as an evidence of the toil and labour of the apostles in journeying to them. It witnessed that they had entered the city and had delivered message, and that their message had been refused. The very dust, therefore, of the place was a defilement to them. "It shall be more tolerable," etc.... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 6:8-11

See these verses fully explained in the notes at Matthew 10:9-15. In Matthew 10:5 they were commanded not to go among the Gentiles or Samaritans. Mark omits that direction, perhaps, because he was writing for the “Gentiles,” and the direction might create unnecessary difficulty or offence. Perhaps he omits it also because the command was given for a temporary purpose, and was not in force at the time of his writing. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 6:12

Preached that men should repent - See the nature of repentance explained in notes at Matthew 3:2. They were now called upon to repent and reform their lives because sin was evil, because the Messiah had come to preach forgiveness to the penitent, and because at “his” presence it was fit that the nation should turn from its sins and prepare to receive him. read more

Mark 6:12-13. They went, and preached that men should repent They went away and published everywhere the glad tidings of the approach of the Messiah’s kingdom, and exhorted men on that consideration to turn to God in true repentance, forsaking all their sins in temper, word, and work, and in all respects bringing forth fruits worthy of repentance. They cast out many devils, &c. And did many other miracles. And anointed with oil many that were sick Which St. James gives as a general... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 6:7-13

62. The twelve sent out (Matthew 10:5-42; Mark 6:7-13; Luke 9:1-6)Jesus sent out the twelve apostles to preach the good news that the kingdom of the Messiah had come. The miraculous powers of the Messiah were given to them also, so that the knowledge of his love and mercy might spread more quickly throughout the land (Luke 9:1-2).There would be no time during Jesus’ lifetime to spread the gospel worldwide, so the apostles had to concentrate on Israel. After Jesus’ death and resurrection they... read more
