Marcos 1:4-8 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Mark 1:1-8

We may observe here, I. What the New Testament is?the divine testament, to which we adhere above all that is human; the new testament, which we advance above that which was old. It is the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God, Mark 1:1. 1. It is gospel; it is God's word, and is faithful and true; see Rev. 19:9; 21:5; 22:6. It is a good word, and well worthy of all acceptation; it brings us glad tidings. 2. It is the gospel of Jesus Christ, the anointed Saviour, the Messiah promised and... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 1:1-4

1:1-4 This is the beginning of the story of how Jesus Christ, the Son of God, brought the good news to men. There is a passage in Isaiah the prophet like this--"Lo! I send my messenger before you and he will prepare your road for you. He will be like a voice crying in the wilderness, 'Get ready the road of the Lord. Make straight the path by which he will come'." This came true when John the Baptizer emerged in the wilderness, announcing a baptism which was the sign of a repentance through... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Mark 1:5-8

1:5-8 And the whole country of Judea went out to him, and so did all the people of Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the River Jordan, while they confessed their sins. John was clad in a garment of camel's hair, and he had a leather girdle round his waist, and it was his custom to eat locusts and wild honey. The burden of his proclamation was, "The one who is stronger than I is coming after me. I am not fit to stoop down and to loosen the strap of his sandals. I have baptized you... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 1:4

John did baptize in the wilderness ,.... Of Judea, Matthew 3:1 , where he first appeared as a preacher; and is the same wilderness Isaiah has respect to in the above prophecy, Isaiah 40:3 . The words are best rendered in the Vulgate Latin and Syriac versions; "John was in the wilderness, baptizing and preaching the baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins": according to which, the account of the Baptist begins with his name, John; describes the place where he was where he made... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 1:5

And there went out unto him all the land of Judea ,.... The people of the land, a great number of them: and they of Jerusalem ; the inhabitants of Jerusalem, hearing of this new preacher, the new doctrine that he taught, and the new ordinance that he administered: and were all baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins ; that is, as many of them as were brought to a sight and sense of their sins, and made a confession of them, these he baptized, or immersed, in the... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 1:6

And John was clothed with camel's hair ,.... This is a description of John by his clothes; See Gill on Matthew 3:4 , to which may be added, that it was usual for penitents, and men of austere lives, and of the first class for holiness and religion, to live in deserts, to fare hard, and wear coarse apparel. Mention is made of one man, who is called, נתן דצוציתא F6 T. Bab. Sabbat, fol. 56. 2. Vid. Buxtorf. not. in Sepher Cosri, p. 156, 157. , because he had on a garment of goat's... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 1:7

And preached, saying, there cometh one mightier than I after me ,.... From whence it appears, that John was a preacher of Jesus Christ; of the dignity of his person, the excellency of his office, and the nature and importance of his work: the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose ; expressing the great veneration he had for him, and the great sense he had of his own unworthiness, to be concerned in the lowest and meanest service of life for him; and that he was... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 1:8

I indeed have baptized you with water ,.... This was spoken to the baptized persons, partly to take off their dependence upon him and his baptism; and partly to direct their views to Christ, from whom the gifts and graces of the Spirit are alone to be had: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost ; See Gill on Matthew 3:11 . One copy adds, "and with fire", as there: a Jewish writer says, the holy blessed God baptizeth with fire, and the wise shall understand F16 R. Menachem in... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 1:4

John - The original name is nearly lost in the Greek Ιωαννης , and in the Latin Johannes , and almost totally so in the English John. The original name is יהוחנן Yehochanan , compounded of חנן יהוה Yehovah chanan , the grace or mercy of Jehovah: a most proper and significant name for the forerunner of the God of All Grace. It was John's business to proclaim the Gospel of the grace of God, and to point out that Lamb or sacrifice of God which takes away the sin of the world. For... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 1:5

All the land - See on Matthew 3:4-6 ; (note). Confessing their sins - It was an invariable custom among the Jews to admit no proselyte to baptism, till he had, in the most solemn manner, declared that he forever had renounced all idolatrous worship, all heathenish superstitions, and promised an entire and unreserved submission to the law of Moses. This was necessary for a proselyte adult - a child dedicated to God by baptism must be brought up in this faith. read more
