Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:35

‘And on that day when evening was come he says to them, “Let us go over to the other side.” ’ ‘And on that day when evening was come.’ This connects back with Mark 4:1 giving the impression that we are dealing with one day in the life of Jesus. And in a sense we are. But we have already noticed that it is his method to deliberately bring together incidents of a similar kind, or which go together, to present a full picture. (Mark 1:1-45; Mark 2:1 to Mark 3:6; Mark 3:7-35 and so on). And it is... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:35-41

SECTION 3. Jesus’ Ministry Throughout Galilee and In The Surrounding Regions (4:35-9:32). After the initial opening up of the story of Jesus with its continual emphasis on His unique authority, Who He was and what He had come to do (Mark 4:1-3), and the series of parables which have indicated how the Kingly Rule of God was to expand (Mark 4:1-34), Mark now indicates how this expansion continued to occur through the ministry of Jesus in Galilee and the surrounding regions. At the same time he... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:36

‘And leaving the great crowd they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.’ The simple detail emphasises that we have here the words of an eyewitness. It would seem that the crowds were so great and pressed so close to the shore line to hear His words that landing would be difficult and uncomfortable, and Jesus was exhausted. So the disciples immediately set off across the lake without landing, taking Him ‘just as He was’ after the long day, enabling Him... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:37-38

‘And there arises a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat insomuch that the boat was now filling. And He Himself was on the cushion in the stern, sleeping.’ The sudden arousal of strong winds to lash the lake up into a fury without warning was a common feature of the Lake of Galilee, surrounded as it was by mountains, and defiles through which the winds could be caught and compressed and then let loose on the lake. Whoever is describing this knew the lake well. But this was a... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:26-32

Mark 4:26-Jonah : . The teaching in parables to the multitude is now resumed, and two further examples are given, those of “ the seed growing secretly” and “ the mustard seed.” The first is peculiar to Mk. Loisy interprets it thus: “ The kingdom of God is also a sowing whose inevitable growth is independent of men’ s will and even of the will of the sower. Like the labourer, Jesus sows the kingdom by preaching the gospel: it is not His work to bring the harvest, i.e. the complete coming of... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:33

Mark 4:33 f. These verses seem to apply to the general practice of Jesus at this period rather than to the events of one day. Mark 4:33 gives the true purpose of parabolic teaching; Mark 4:34 embodies the evangelist’ s later theory, which leads him to regard such a saying as Mark 7:15 as a parable. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 4:35

Mark 4:35 to Mark 5:43 . Four Wonder-Stories.— The stilling of the tempest, the healing of the demoniac and of the woman, and the raising of Jairus’ daughter form one of the most graphic sections of Mk.’ s narrative. These stories have clearly been often told, and the evangelist delights to tell them. They seem to rest on unmistakable history. Thus the reference to the other little boats ( Mark 4:36) reproduces an insignificant detail that naturally remained in the memory of an eye-witness (... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Mark 4:30-32

We met with this parable in Matthew 13:31,Matthew 13:32, where the reader will find we have given the sense of it. It is a prophetical parable, foretelling the great success that the gospel, which at this time was restrained to a little corner of the world, and there met with small acceptance, should have after Christ’s resurrection from the dead; which prophecy we find was fulfilled in the apostles’ time, and hath been further fulfilling in all ages of the world since that time. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Mark 4:33-34

From hence we may gather that all the parables by which our Saviour instructed his hearers are not recorded by the evangelists, though many be, and some mentioned by one, some by two of them, which are not recorded by the other. As they were able to hear it. Christ disdained not to accommodate his style and method of preaching to his hearers’ capacity, neither will any faithful minister of Christ do it: he preacheth in the best style, language, and method, that preacheth best to the capacity,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Mark 4:35-41

This piece of history is related by Matthew and Luke as well as by our evangelist, and that with no considerable variations one from another; what in it wanteth explication, See Poole on "Matthew 8:23", and following verses to Matthew 8:27. Christ had been preaching, and being wearied and tired with the multitude still pressing upon him, gave order to cross the sea, and to go over to the other side; then (to show us he was truly man, and took upon him the infirmities of our nature) he composes... read more
