Mark 2:1-2 BSB

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 2:1-12

The sick of the palsy: the spiritual and physical healing. The excitement having subsided, Jesus enters again into Capernaum. He, in the house, was teaching, "Pharisees and doctors of the Law sitting by," from all parts. The mighty "power of the Lord was with him to heal," as was made evident before, or as was to be proved by this event. It being "noised that he was in the house, many were gathered together," crowding "about the door." But attention is arrested by the bold deed of four... read more

Parallel passages: Matthew 9:2-8 ; Luke 5:17-26 .— The cure of the paralytic. I. THE POPULARITY OF OUR LORD . After the cure of the leper, recorded at the close of the preceding chapter, our Lord, to avoid tumult or undue excitement on the part of the people, or an unseasonable precipitation of his plans, retired to and remained some short time in unfrequented places; but the crowds kept resorting ( ἤρχοντο , imperfect) to him from all directions. After an interval of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 2:2

Many were gathered together , so that there was no longer room for them ( ὥστε μηκέτι χωρεῖν ), no, not even about the door. The description is very graphic. The house could not contain them, and even its courtyard and approaches were inconveniently thronged. This is one of the many examples of minute observation of details, so observable in St. Mark's Gospel. And he preached ( ἐλάλει )—more literally, was speaking— the word unto them . This little sentence indicates the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 2:1

Into Capernaum - See the notes at Matthew 4:13.After some days - The number of days is not known. Jesus probably remained long enough in the desert to heal the sick who were brought to him, and to give instructions to the multitudes who attended his preaching. Capernaum was not “the city” mentioned in Mark 1:45, and it is probable that there was no difficulty in his remaining there and preaching.And it was noised ... - He entered the city, doubtless, privately; but his being there was soon... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 2:2

So much as about the door - In the “court” or “yard” before the door. They could not get near enough to hear him.Preached the word unto them - The word of God; the revelation or doctrine which he came to deliver, called “the Word,” and “the Word of God,” because it was spoken or revealed by God. Compare Acts 6:2-7. read more

Mark 2:1-2. And again After having been in desert places for same time, he returned privately to Capernaum. It was noised that he was in the house The rumour immediately spread, that he was come to the city, and was in Peter’s house. And straightway many were gathered together His arrival was no sooner known than such a multitude was gathered together that the house could not contain them; nor even the court before the door. Hitherto the general impression on their hearts continued.... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 2:1-12

31. Jesus heals a paralyzed man (Matthew 9:1-8; Mark 2:1-12; Luke 5:17-26)This story shows the first signs of organized Jewish opposition to Jesus. A group of religious leaders from Jerusalem, Judea and Galilee came, with evil motives, to find out for themselves what Jesus was doing and saying (Luke 5:17).Some friends of a paralyzed man were so sure Jesus could heal him that they allowed no obstacle to stop them from bringing the man to him. In his response Jesus did more than heal the man. He... read more

And when he entered again into Capernaum after some days, it was noised that he was in the house. (Mark 2:1)After some days ... This means an indefinite period, one long enough to allow the frenzy which developed following the healed leper's sensational report to spend itself and be followed by a period of more normalcy.In the house ... An alternative reading is "at home," indicating that this was the place in Capernaum where Jesus usually lived. It has been surmised that this was the home... read more
