The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 11:27-33

Critics criticized. I. THE SPIRIT OF FAULT - FINDING NEVER LACES FOOD . The action is wrong; or, if it is right, it is done from a wrong motive, or done by the wrong person. "Ill will never said well." II. IT ASKS FOR REASONS , BUT REFUSES TO GIVE THEM . It will call others to account, and refuse to give account of itself, The arbitrary temper is directly opposed to the "sweet reasonableness of Christ." III. THE UNTRUE MAN THINKS ONLY OF... read more

Parallel passages: Matthew 21:23-32 ; Luke 20:1-8 .— Christ's authority questioned. I. CAUSE OF CHRIST 'S AUTHORITY BEING CALLED IN QUESTION . The ostensible cause was the events of the preceding day; the real cause Satan's opposition to the work of Christ. On the day before he had displayed his zeal for the sanctity of God's house and the purity of its worship. He is now called to account because of the extraordinary efforts he bad made to put a stop to the public... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 11:29

I will ask of you one question ( ἐπερωτήσω ὑμᾶς ἕνα λόγον ). The verb justifies the translation, one question , for "one word." The question which our Lord put to them was one on which hung the solution of that proposed by the scribes. It is as though he said, "You do not believe me when I say that I have received power from God. Believe then John the Baptist, who bare witness of me that I was sent from God to do these things." read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 11:30

The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? By the "baptism of John" our Lord means his testimony concerning himself, his doctrine, and nil his preaching. It is a synecdoche—the part put for the whole. The argument is incontrovertible. It is this: "You ask from whence I derive my authority—from God or from men?

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Mark 11:27-29

Mark 11:27-29. There come to him the chief priests, &c. It seems that Christ’s sermons made a great impression on those who heard him, for the number of his followers and admirers increased so as to alarm the rulers, who feared that the people, on his account, would endeavour to shake off the Roman yoke. They consulted, therefore, among themselves, how they might destroy him, and resolved to do it under pretext of law; the attachment which the multitude had to him hindering them from... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 11:27-33

122. Authority of Jesus questioned (Matthew 21:23-32; Mark 11:27-33; Luke 20:1-8)When Jesus returned to the temple, the Jewish religious leaders came to trap him with a question. They hoped to find something in his answer that would enable them to bring a charge, civil or religious, against him. They asked him by what authority he acted the way he did, particularly in overthrowing the established practices of the Jewish temple (Matthew 21:23).Instead of answering directly, Jesus adjusted the... read more
