The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Mark 10:1-52

Ambition Rebuked [An Analysis] Mark 10:0 This passage, which will hardly ever be required for public use, suggests some points which ought not to be neglected by the preacher. (1) Jesus Christ taught. The word is very significant. Ignorance was never approved by the Saviour. He saved through light, never through darkness. He conducted specific intellectual processes, as well as processes distinctively moral. It was his delight to simplify truth. (2) Jesus Christ taught the people. Not a... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Mark 10:1-12

CONTENTS. Our Lord is here discoursing on the subject of divorcement. Little Children are brought to CHRIST. The LORD again speaks of his approaching Sufferings. Jesus passeth through Jericho. AND he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again. (2) And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife tempting him. (3) And he answered... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Mark 10:1-12

1-12 Wherever Jesus was, the people flocked after him in crowds, and he taught them. Preaching was Christ's constant practice. He here shows that the reason why Moses' law allowed divorce, was such that they ought not to use the permission; it was only for the hardness of their hearts. God himself joined man and wife together; he has fitted them to be comforts and helps for each other. The bond which God has tied, is not to be lightly untied. Let those who are for putting away their wives... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Mark 10:1-99

Mark 10 THE OPENING of this chapter brings us near to the closing scenes of the Lord’s life. He was on the farther side of Jordan but near the borders of Judaea, and the Pharisees appeared, opposing Him by tempting Him. By raising questions as to marriage and divorce, they expected to entangle Him in some contradiction of the things that Moses had commanded, and so find a point of attack. The Lord did not contradict Moses, but He went behind him to God’s original thought in the creation of man... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Mark 10:5-9

The answer of Jesus: v. 5. And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. v. 6. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. v. 7. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; v. 8. and they twain shall be one flesh; so, then, they are no more twain, but one flesh. v. 9. What therefore God hath joined together let not man put asunder. Jesus was well acquainted with this bit... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Mark 10:1-22

the Divine Law of Marriage Mark 10:1-22 God made one man for one woman; therefore divorce is not permissible, unless the one act be committed which severs the nuptial tie. Then only is the bond broken by which husband and wife are one. There should be no compulsory celibacy. Some can live the single life; others cannot. Each must work out his own possibilities, and none may judge another. It would appear that the fathers brought the little ones. They had a truer perception of the heart of... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Mark 10:1-52

The Pharisees raised a question concerning the marriage relation. The Master went to the root of all things in the words, "From the beginning of the creation." The supreme and final authority is not the permission of a human lawgiver, but the will and intention of God. It was in this connection that Jesus took the children in His arms and blessed them, laying His hands on them. The story of the rich young ruler reveals the need of control. The way to find it is to follow the Master. The... read more
