Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Mark 14:1-72

Foreign Missions Mark 14:4 The incident from which our text is taken is distinguished above all others by the fact that Jesus mentions it as one that shall be held in world-wide and undying remembrance (v. 9). What is there said has been realized wherever missions have been established.

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Mark 14:53-65

53-65 We have here Christ's condemnation before the great council of the Jews. Peter followed; but the high priest's fire-side was no proper place, nor his servants proper company, for Peter: it was an entrance into temptation. Great diligence was used to procure false witnesses against Jesus, yet their testimony was not equal to the charge of a capital crime, by the utmost stretch of their law. He was asked, Art thou the Son of the Blessed? that is, the Son of God. For the proof of his being... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Mark 14:1-99

Mark 14 AS WE OPEN this chapter, we come back to historical details, and reach the closing moments of our Lord’s life. Verses Mark 14.1-14.11 provide us with a very striking introduction to the last scenes. In verses Mar_14:1 and 2, crafty hatred rises to its climax. In verses Mar_14:10 and 11, the supreme exhibition of heartless treachery is briefly recorded. The verses between tell a story of devoted love on the part of an insignificant woman its beauty enhanced by the story standing... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Mark 14:55-65

Mark THE CONDEMNATION WHICH CONDEMNS THE JUDGES Mar_14:55 - Mar_14:65 . Mark brings out three stages in our Lord’s trial by the Jewish authorities-their vain attempts to find evidence against Him, which were met by His silence; His own majestic witness to Himself, which was met by a unanimous shriek of condemnation; and the rude mockery of the underlings. The other Evangelists, especially John, supply many illuminative details; but the essentials are here. It is only in criticising the... read more
