Mark 1:45

1:45 But as the man ¹  went out he began to announce it publicly and spread the story widely, so that Jesus ²  was no longer able to enter any town openly but stayed outside in remote places. Still ³  they kept coming ⁴  to him from everywhere.

Mark 6:41

6:41 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. He ⁵  gave them to his ⁶  disciples to serve the people, and he divided the two fish among them all.

Mark 6:56

6:56 And wherever he would go – into villages, towns, or countryside – they would place the sick in the marketplaces, and would ask him if ⁷  they could just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.

¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man who was healed) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Grk “and”; καί (kai) often has a mildly contrastive force, as here.

⁴ tn The imperfect verb has been translated iteratively.

⁵ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

⁶ tc ‡ Most mss (Ì⁴⁵ A D W Θ Ë^1,13 Ï lat sy) have αὐτοῦ (autou, “his”) after τοῖς μαθηταῖς (toi" maqhtai", “the disciples”), but several excellent witnesses (א B L Δ 33 579 892 1241 1424 2427 pc) lack the pronoun. This kind of variant is often a predictable expansion of the text; further, that many important mss lack the pronoun gives support for the shorter reading. For these reasons, the pronoun is considered to be secondary. NA²⁷ puts αὐτοῦ in brackets, indicating some doubts as to its authenticity.

⁹ tn Grk “asked that they might touch.”
