Mark 6:14

The Death of John the Baptist

6:14 Now ¹  King Herod ²  heard this, for Jesus’ ³  name had become known. Some ⁴  were saying, “John the baptizer ⁵  has been raised from the dead, and because of this, miraculous powers are at work in him.”

Mark 7:15

7:15 There is nothing outside of a person that can defile him by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles him.”

9:25 Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he rebuked ⁶  the unclean spirit, ⁷  saying to it, “Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”

Mark 12:36

12:36 David himself, by the Holy Spirit, said,

until I put your enemies under your feet.”’ ⁹ 

Mark 14:25

14:25 I tell you the truth, ¹⁰  I will no longer drink of the fruit ¹¹  of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”

Mark 14:62

14:62 “I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand ¹²  of the Power ¹³  and coming with the clouds of heaven.” ¹⁴ 

Mark 14:72

14:72 Immediately a rooster ¹⁵  crowed a second time. Then ¹⁶  Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him: “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept. ¹⁷

[6:14]  ¹ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[6:14]  ² sn Herod was technically not a king, but a tetrarch, a ruler with rank and authority lower than a king. A tetrarch ruled only with the approval of the Roman authorities. This was roughly equivalent to being governor of a region. In the NT, Herod, who ruled over Galilee, is called a king (Matt 14:9, Mark 6:14-29), reflecting popular usage rather than an official title.

[6:14]  ³ tn Grk “his”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[6:14]  ⁴ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[6:14]  ⁵ tn While Matthew and Luke consistently use the noun βαπτίστης (baptisths, “the Baptist”) to refer to John, as a kind of a title, Mark prefers the substantival participle ὁ βαπτίζων (Jo baptizwn, “the one who baptizes, the baptizer”) to describe him (only twice does he use the noun [Mark 6:25; 8:28]).

[9:25]  ¹ tn Or “commanded” (often with the implication of a threat, L&N 33.331).

[9:25]  ² sn Unclean spirit refers to an evil spirit.

[12:36]  ¹ sn The Lord said to my Lord. With David being the speaker, this indicates his respect for his descendant (referred to as my Lord). Jesus was arguing, as the ancient exposition assumed, that the passage is about the Lord’s anointed. The passage looks at an enthronement of this figure and a declaration of honor for him as he takes his place at the side of God. In Jerusalem, the king’s palace was located to the right of the temple to indicate this kind of relationship. Jesus was pressing the language here to get his opponents to reflect on how great Messiah is.

[12:36]  ² sn A quotation from Ps 110:1.

[14:25]  ¹ tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[14:25]  ² tn Grk “the produce” (“the produce of the vine” is a figurative expression for wine).

[14:62]  ¹ sn An allusion to Ps 110:1. This is a claim that Jesus shares authority with God in heaven. Those present may have thought they were his judges, but, in fact, the reverse was true.

[14:62]  ² sn The expression the right hand of the Power is a circumlocution for referring to God. Such indirect references to God were common in 1st century Judaism out of reverence for the divine name.

[14:62]  ³ sn An allusion to Dan 7:13.

[14:72]  ¹ tn This occurrence of the word ἀλέκτωρ (alektwr, “rooster”) is anarthrous and consequently may not point back explicitly to the rooster which had crowed previously in v. 68. The reason for the anarthrous construction is most likely to indicate generically that some rooster crowed. Further, the translation of ἀλέκτωρ as an indefinite noun retains the subtlety of the Greek in only hinting at the Lord’s prediction v. 30. See also NAB, TEV, NASB.

[14:72]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[14:72]  ³ tn Grk “he wept deeply.”

[15:46]  ¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Joseph of Arimathea) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[15:46]  ² tn The term σινδών (sindwn) can refer to a linen cloth used either for clothing or for burial.

[15:46]  ³ tn That is, cut or carved into an outcropping of natural rock, resulting in a cave-like structure (see L&N 19.25).

[15:46]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[15:46]  ⁵ tn Or “to the door,” “against the door.”
