The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:45-52

Christ's retirement. There are three essential elements discernible—withdrawal from man, approach to God, and return to man. I. SEASONS OF PRIVACY AND RETIREMENT ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE SPIRITUAL WELFARE OF THOSE WHO HAVE MUCH PUBLIC LIFE AND WORK . II. A GREAT MINISTRY MUST BE SUSTAINED BY CONSTANT , PROFOUND DEVOTIONS , III. THE PRAYER OF THE SAINT IS AS HELPFUL AND NECESSARY TO THE WELFARE OF ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:45-52

The vision on the lake. I. THE FRAILTY OF FAITH . 1 . In loneliness. Jesus had gone away. The disciples were in the middle of the lake, amidst a stormy sea. It is a picture of a life-experience. In loneliness we sink into weakness and cowardice, having been brave in the fellowship and under the contagious influence of superiors. 2 . In the withdrawal of its Object from the field of vision. They could not see Christ. We want to see, when the whole need is that we should... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:45-56

Parallel passages: Matthew 14:22-36 ; John 6:15-21 .— Miraculous protection. I. WALKING ON THE WATER . 1 . Almighty power. Every one who has glanced over the early pages of English history is familiar with the story of Canute the Dane. That king wished to reprove the fulsome flattery of his courtiers when they spoke of his power as unlimited. He ordered his chair to be set by the seaside as the tide was coming in. He peremptorily commanded the waves to withdraw, and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:46

And when he had sent them away ( ἀποταξάμενος )—more literally, had taken leave of them, that is, the multitude—he departed into a mountain ( εἰς τὸ ὄρος ) ; literally, into the mountain; that is, the high table-land at the foot of which the multitude had been fed. Towards the north-east of the Sea of Galilee the land rises rapidly from the shore. To pray ( προσεύξασθαι ).This is a very full word, implying the outpouring of the heart to God. Our Lord did this that he might... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:46-47

St. Mark is careful, like St. Matthew, to tell us that when the even was come he was alone on the land. Both the evangelists desire to call attention to the fact that, when night came on, the disciples were alone in their boat and Jesus alone on the land. It was nightfall; and St. John informs us that "the sea was rising by reason of a great wind that blew." Then it was that the Lord left his place of prayer on the mountain, and walked upon the sea, that he might succor his disciples now... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:47

And when even was come. It was now advancing onwards into night; the wind was rising and blowing against them. Then it was that the Lord left his place of prayer on the mountain, that he might succor his disciples in their difficulties. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 6:48-50

And he saw them toiling in rowing . The Greek is, according to the best readings καὶ ἰδὼν (not εἶδεν ) αὐτοὺς βασανιξομένους ἐν τῷ ἐλαύνειν . The word βασανιξομένους means more than "toiling;" it means literally, tormented. It is well rendered in the Revised Version by distressed . It was only by painful effort that they could make head against the driving storm blowing upon them from the west, that is, from the Mediterranean Sea. About the fourth watch of the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 6:45-56

See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 14:22-36.Mark 6:52They considered not the miracle of the loaves - They did not remember or call to mind the “power” which Jesus had shown in feeding the five thousand by a miracle, and that, having done that, he had power also to save them from the storm.Their heart was hardened - Their “mind” was dull to perceive it. This does not mean that they were “opposed” to Jesus, or that they had what we denominate “hardness of heart,” but simply that... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 6:45-56

66. Jesus walks on the sea (Matthew 14:22-36; Mark 6:45-56; John 6:15-21)On seeing Jesus’ miracle with the bread and fish, many wanted to make him king immediately. This no doubt would have pleased many of Jesus’ followers, but for him it presented a possible temptation. He therefore sent his disciples to Bethsaida, while he escaped into the hills where he could be alone and pray (Matthew 14:22-23; Mark 6:45-46; John 6:15).Bethsaida was not far from the place where Jesus had fed the five... read more
