Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Mark 9:14-29

We have here the story of Christ casting the devil out of a child, somewhat more fully related than it was in Matt. 17:14 Observe here, I. Christ's return to his disciples, and the perplexity he found them in. He laid aside his robes of glory, and came to look after his family, and to enquire what was become of them. Christ's glory above does not make him forget the concerns of his church below, which he visits in great humility, Mark 9:14. And he came very seasonably, when the disciples were... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 9:19-24

9:19-24 "O faithless generation!" Jesus answered. "How long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear you? Bring him to me!" They brought him to Jesus. When he saw Jesus, the spirit immediately sent the boy into a convulsion, and he fell upon the ground, and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. Jesus asked his father, "How long is it since this happened to him?" He said, "He has been like this since he was a child. Often it throws him into the fire and into waters for it is out to destroy... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 9:25-29

9:25-29 When Jesus saw that the crowd was running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit. "Spirit of dumbness and deafness," he said, "I order you, come out of him, and don't go into him again." When it had cried and violently convulsed him it came out, and he became like a dead man, so that many said, "He is dead." But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up, and he stood up. When he had gone into the house, and when they were by themselves, his disciples asked him, "Why were we not... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:24

And straightway the father of the child cried out ,.... As soon as ever he found it was put upon his faith, and that the issue of things would be according to that, he expressed himself with much vehemency, being in great distress; partly with indignation at his unbelief, and partly through fear of missing a cure, by reason of it: and said with tears ; repenting of his unbelief, and grieved at the present weakness of his faith; which he very ingenuously confesses, saying, Lord, I... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:25

When Jesus saw that the people came running together ,.... לותיה , "to him", as the Syriac version adds, and so the Persic; upon hearing the vehement cry of the father of the child, and the earnest solicitations he made, expecting that something would be done: he rebuked the foul spirit ; that brought this disorder on the child, had continued it so long, and with so much violence. Matthew calls this foul spirit, "the devil"; see Gill on Matthew 17:18 , saying unto him, thou dumb... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:26

And the spirit cried, and rent him sore ,.... We rightly supply, "the spirit", as do the Syriac and Persic versions, "the demon"; for it was he, and not the child, that cried, and made an hideous noise, at his ejection; being filled with wrath and rage, that he must be obliged to quit the possession he had so long held; and therefore, in spite and malice, before it left him, shook and tore him, and threw him into dreadful convulsions: and came out of him ; though sore against his will,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:27

But Jesus took him by the hand ,.... "Took hold of the hand of the child", as the Persic version renders it; and lifted him up ; from the ground, on which he was cast by the spirit; and he arose : this is omitted in the Syriac and Arabic versions, though in one edition of the latter, according to De Dieu, it is rendered, "and he stood"; to which is added, "and went into his own house". The Persic version, instead of this clause, reads, "and the child was healed"; and all the... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:28

And when he was come into the house ,.... Perhaps into the man's house whose child he had healed, or into some other in these parts, for the sake both of retirement and refreshment: his disciples asked him privately, why could not we cast him out ? The nine disciples, who were particularly concerned in this matter, fearing they had lost the power of casting out devils, conferred upon them, inquired of Jesus, when he was alone, why they could not cast the demon out of the child, when they... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 9:29

And he said unto them ,.... Matthew, besides the following reason, assigns another, as given by our Lord, why they could not cast out the foul spirit, which was their unbelief; of which they were guilty in some sort, as well as the Jews, and the father of the child; but Mark omits it, and only relates this as the reason; this kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting ; which they had not observed; See Gill on Matthew 17:21 . read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 9:24

Lord, I believe - The word Lord is omitted by ABCDL, both the Syriac, both the Arabic later Persic, Ethiopic, Gothic, and three copies of the Itala. Griesbach leaves it out. The omission, I think, is proper, because it is evident the man did not know our Lord, and therefore could not be expected to accost him with a title expressive of that authority which he doubted whether he possessed, unless we grant that he used the word κυριε after the Roman custom, for Sir.
