mark-6:4-7

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Mark 6:1-6

Here, I. Christ makes a visit to his own country, the place not of his birth, but of his education; that was Nazareth; where his relations were. He had been in danger of his life among them (Luke 4:29), and yet he came among them again; so strangely doth he wait to be gracious, and seek the salvation of his enemies. Whither he went, though it was into danger, his disciples followed him (Mark 6:1); for they had left all, to follow him whithersoever he went. II. There he preached in their... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Mark 6:7-13

Here is, I. The commission given to the twelve apostles, to preach and work miracles; it is the same which we had more largely, Matt. 10:1-42. Mark doth not name them here, as Matthew doth, because he had named them before, when they were first called into fellowship with him, Mark 3:16-19. Hitherto they had been conversant with Christ, and had set at his feet, had heard his doctrine, and seen his miracles; and now he determines to make some use of them; they had received, that they might... read more

William Barclay

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 6:1-6

6:1-6 Jesus left there and came into his own native place, and his disciples went with him. When the Sabbath came he began to teach in the synagogue. Many, as they listened, were amazed. "Where," they said, "did this man get this knowledge? What wisdom is this that has been given to him? And how can such wonderful things keep happening through his hands? Is not this the carpenter, Mary's son, the brother of James and Joses and Judah and Simon? Are his sisters not here with us?" And they took... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 6:7-11

6:7-11 Jesus called The Twelve to him and he began to send them out in twos. He gave them power over unclean spirits. He ordered them to take nothing for the road except a staff. He ordered them not to take bread, or a wallet, or a copper coin in their belts. He ordered them to wear sandals and, he said, "You must not put on two tunics." He said to them, "Wherever you enter into a house, stay there, until you leave that place; and, if any place refuses to give you hospitality, and, if in any... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 6:4

But Jesus said unto them ,.... The following proverb; a prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house ; the same as in Matthew 13:57 ; See Gill on Matthew 13:57 . Only the phrase, "among his own kin", is here added: very probably some of those that made these reflections, were some distant relations of Joseph, or Mary; for as Jesus was now in his own country and city, and in his own native place, so among his kindred and relations;... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 6:5

And he could there do no mighty work ,.... Or miracle; not that Christ had no power in himself to work miracles, though their unbelief and contempt of him were very great; but it was not fit and proper that he should do any there, since such were their prejudices against him: it is an usual way of speaking with the Hebrews, when either it is not "fit" and proper that a thing should be done, or they "will" not do it, to say it cannot be done; see Genesis 19:22 ; and even it is said of God... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 6:6

And he marvelled because of their unbelief ,.... Which was the reason, as Matthew says, Matthew 13:58 , why he did not many mighty works there, because they continued their prejudices against him, and their unbelief in him, notwithstanding what he did do, which was matter of admiration to him; wherefore he took his leave of them, as an ungrateful and unworthy people; and it is never after observed, that he returned there any more. It was a surprise to Christ, as man, that his country men... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 6:7

And he called unto him the twelve ,.... "His twelve disciples", as some copies read; whom he had before called by his grace, and had appointed and ordained them his apostles, but had not yet publicly sent forth; in order to which, he now called them to him, and gave them their commission, qualifications, and instructions: and began to send them forth by two and two : he first sent forth one couple, and then another; the reason of his sending them by pairs, was partly for the sake of... read more
