Mark 1:29-31 ESV

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 1:29-31

Christ's domestic ministry. Wherever Jesus went and amongst whomsoever, he took with him a heart sensitive to the appeal of human need, suffering, and sin; he took with him a hand open to give, stretched out to help and deliver. In city and country, among Jews and foreigners, with high and low, in the society of men, women, and children, he was always the same—the Helper, the Comforter, the Healer, the Friend of man. For the brief but pictorial and tender narrative in these verses we are... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 1:29-34

The progress of health. I. It IS IDENTICAL WITH THE PROGRESS OF CHRISTIANITY . For Christianity is the embodiment of the wisdom of the physician, the power of the Creator, the compassion of the God. These wonders are really revelations of law. Were the will of God the only factor in the case, we could hardly imagine how suffering could be. But there is our will also. The truth, so far as we may conjecture, seems to be that in the nature of things evil cannot be as a rule... read more

Parallel passages: Matthew 8:14-17 ; Luke 4:38-41 .— The cure of Peter's wife's mother and others. I. FEVER OF A VIRULENT TYPE . That St. Peter was a married man appears not only from this mention of his mother-in-law, but also from the reference of St. Paul ( 1 Corinthians 9:5 ), "Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?" But, near and dear as Peter was to She Saviour, he was not exempted from... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 1:30-31

Lay sick of a fever ( κατέκειτο πυρέσσουσα ) . St. Luke ( Luke 4:38 ) uses a stronger expression, "was holden with a great fever" ( συνεχομένη πυρετῷ μεγάλῳ ). There were marshes in that district; hence the prevalence of fevers of a malignant character. There is no mention of the wife of Peter by name in the New Testament. We may infer, from the fact that his wish's mother lived with him, that he was the head of the family. St. Paul ( 1 Corinthians 9:5 ) intimates that he... read more

Mark 1:29-34. They entered into the house of Simon That is, of Peter. See the notes on Matthew 8:14-17. And all the city was gathered together at the door Namely, of the house in which Jesus was; some coming as humble petitioners for themselves or their friends, others as spectators of the surprising miracles which he wrought, and some probably to hear and be instructed by his discourses. O what a fair prospect was here! Who could then have imagined that all these blossoms would die away... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 1:29-39

29. Many sick people healed (Matthew 4:23-25; Matthew 8:14-17; Mark 1:29-39; Luke 4:38-44)Further examples of the ministry of Jesus show the presence and power of the kingdom of God in healing those afflicted by Satan (Matthew 4:23-25; Mark 1:29-34). (For the significance of the kingdom of God see earlier section, ‘Jesus and the Kingdom’.) On one occasion when Jesus was staying in Capernaum, he went outside the town to find a quiet place to pray to his Father. Peter thought he was losing... read more
