马可福音 9:46 CUVS

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 9:42-50

A Warning Against Causing Those Who Believe In Him To Stumble (9:42-50). Having spoken of what acting in His Name regularly involved, Jesus now gives a warning to those who act against His Name. Not all these sayings may necessarily have been delivered at this point in time (see Mark 9:49-50), but Mark includes them here because he is at present concentrating on Jesus’ teaching of His disciples. He considered this to be a convenient place to give examples of that teaching. Alternately they may... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 9:43-48

“And if your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is good for you to enter into life maimed rather than having two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is good for you to enter into life lame rather than having two feet to be cast into Gehenna. And if your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is good for you to enter under the Kingly Rule of God with one eye rather than having two eyes to be cast into Gehenna,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 9:33-50

Mark 9:33-Philippians : . A Conversation with the Twelve.— This section illustrates the kind of teaching which Jesus gave in private to His disciples. It may embody fragmentary recollections of a particular discussion, but more probably Mk. has strung together utterances and incidents belonging to different occasions, the connecting links being sometimes the mere repetition of a single word, such as “ cause to stumble” ( Mark 9:42 f.), or “ fire” ( Mark 9:48 f.), or even “ in my name” ( Mark... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Mark 9:43-48

See Poole on "Matthew 5:29-30", where the same things occur. Matthew only mentions the hand and the eye. All have the same significance, viz. that it is better to deny ourselves in some particular satisfaction, than to hazard eternal salvation for the gratifying the appetite in it. read more

DISCOURSE: 1436AN OFFENDING MEMBERMark 9:43-48. If thy hand offend thee, cut, it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thy foot offend thee cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Mark 9:1-50

Chapter 9And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power ( Mark 9:1 ).Now what did He mean by that? Because those disciples have all died, and we have not yet seen the kingdom of God come with power. Was Jesus mistaken? Well, first of all, no. Jesus was not mistaken. If my interpretation of a scripture would make it appear that Jesus was mistaken, then my... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Mark 9:1-50

Mark 9:2 . And after six days, not counting the two sabbaths, as in Luke 9:28. See on Matthew 17:1. Mark 9:16 . He asked the scribes, what question ye with them? No answer! They had been insulting the disciples because they could not deliver a child, (for so the jews call young people under the age of twenty years) from the power of Satan. 1 Kings 3:7. This was a momentary triumph of the learned adversaries of Christ. They had ridiculed the apostles as impostors, pretending to work... read more

Mark 9:44; Mark 9:46; Mark 9:48Where their worm dieth not.-The punishment of the wicked, dreadful and interminableSome will say that this doctrine has no tendency to do good; it is idle to think of frightening men into religion. It is my duty not to decide what doctrines are likely to do good, but to preach such as I find in the Scriptures. I dare not pretend to be either more wise or more compassionate than our Saviour; and He thought it consistent, both with wisdom and compassion, to utter... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Mark 9:46

46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Ver. 46. Where their worm dieth not ] i.e. Where there is eternity of extremity. Of all outward torments none more insufferable than that by fire; as of all inward, none like that of having worms ever grubbing and gnawing upon the entrails. Add hereunto, that worms and fire use to make an end of other things; not so here. The fire fails not, as did that fire in the valley of Hinnom, wherein the dead carcases were burnt without... read more
