Vincent, [1886]\nThem that had made insurrection with him (\u03c3\u03c5\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u1ff6\u03bd)\nFellow-rioters. But the better texts read \u03c3\u03c4\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u1ff6\u03bd, rioters, omitting the \u03c3\u03cd\u03bd, with (fellow): and the Rev. accordingly omits with him.\nWho (\u03bf\u1f35\u03c4\u03b9\u03bd\u03b5\u03c2)\nDenoting a class of criminals.\nThe insurrection\nNote the article: the insurrection for which Barabbas and his fellows had been imprisoned.\nCrying aloud (\u1f00\u03bd\u03b1\u03b2\u03bf\u03ae\u03c3\u03b1\u03c2)\nBut the best texts read \u03b2\u1f70\u03c2, having gone up. So Rev., went up.\nEver (\u1f00\u03b5\u1f76)\nOmitted by the best texts.\nMoved (\u1f00\u03bd\u03ad\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c3\u03b1\u03bd)\nA feeble translation. \u03a3\u03b5\u03af\u03c9 is to shake. Hence \u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03cc\u03c2, an earthquake. See on Mar 13:7. Better as Rev., stirred up. Wyc., The bishops stirred the company of the people.\nTo content (\u03c4\u1f78 \u1f31\u03ba\u03b1\u03bd\u1f78\u03bd \u03c0\u03bf\u03b9\u1fc6\u03c3\u03b1\u03b9)\nLit., to do the sufficient thing. Compare the popular phrase, Do the right thing. A Latinism, and used by Mark only. Wyc., to do enough to the people.\nInto the hall called Pretorium\nMark, as usual, amplifies. Matthew has simply the Pretorium. The courtyard, surrounded by the buildings of the Pretorium, so that the people passing through the vestibule into this quadrangle found themselves in the Pretorium.\nBand (\u03c3\u03c0\u03b5\u1fd6\u03c1\u03b1\u03bd)\nOriginally anything wound or wrapped round; as a ball, the coils of a snake, a knot or curl in wood. Hence a body of men-at-arms. The same idea is at the bottom of the Latin manipulus, which is sometimes (as by Josephus) used to translate \u03c3\u03c0\u03b5\u1fd6\u03c1\u03b1. Manipulus was originally a bundle or handful. The ancient Romans adopted a pole with a handful of hay or straw twisted about it as the standard of a company of soldiers; hence a certain number or body of soldiers under one standard was called manipulus.\nPurple\nSee on Mat 27:28. Matthew adds the word for soldier's cloak. Mark has simply purple.\nCompel\nBetter impress, as Rev. See on in margin. Mat 5:41. Note the accuracy in designating Simon.\nGolgotha\nSee on Mat 27:33.\nThey gave (\u1f10\u03b4\u03af\u03b4\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd)\nThe imperfect tense is used in the same sense as in Mat 3:14 (Rev.), \"John would have hindered.\" They were for giving; attempted to give. So Rev., excellently, offered.\nWine mingled with myrrh (\u1f10\u03c3\u03bc\u03c5\u03c1\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd \u03bf\u1f36\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd)\nLit., myrrhed wine. See on Mat 27:34.\nWhat each should take (\u03c4\u03af\u03c2 \u03c4\u03af \u1f04\u03c1\u1fc3)\nLit., who should take what. An addition of Mark.\nThe superscription of his accusation\nMatthew, simply accusation; Luke, superscription; John, title. See on Mat 27:37.\nThieves\nRev., robbers. See on Mat 27:38.\nAh! (\u03bf\u1f50\u1f70)\nThe Latin vah!\nDestroyest\nThe same word as at Mar 13:2.\nThe Christ\nSee on Mat 1:1. Referring to the confession before the high-priest (Mar 14:62).\nKing of Israel\nReferring to the confession before Pilate (Mar 15:2).\nVinegar\nSee on Mat 27:48.\nThe veil\nSee on Mat 27:51.\nSon of God\nNot the Son of God, which Rev. has retained, but a son of God. To the centurion Christ was a hero or demigod. See on Mat 27:54.\nMagdalene\nSee on Mat 27:56.\nFollowed - ministered (\u1f20\u03ba\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03cd\u03b8\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd - \u03b4\u03b9\u03b7\u03ba\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd)\nBoth imperfects: were in the habit, accustomed to.\nEven\nSee on Mat 27:57.\nThe day before the Sabbath (\u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03c3\u03ac\u03b2\u03b2\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bd)\nThe fore-Sabbath. Peculiar to Mark, and only here.\nJoseph of Arimathaea (\u1f38\u03c9\u03c3\u1f74\u03c6 \u1f41 \u1f00\u03c0\u1f78 \u1f08\u03c1\u03b9\u03bc\u03b1\u03b8\u03b1\u03af\u03b1\u03c2)\nLit., Joseph, he from Arimathaea: the article indicating a man well known.\nHonorable (\u03b5\u1f50\u03c3\u03c7\u03ae\u03bc\u03c9\u03bd)\nCompounded of \u03b5\u1f56, well, and \u03c3\u03c7\u1fc6\u03bc\u03b1, form, shape, figure. On the latter word, see on Mat 17:2. In its earlier use this adjective would, therefore, emphasize the dignified external appearance and deportment. So Plato, noble bearing (\"Republic,\" 413). Later, it came to be used in the sense of noble; honorable in rank. See Act 13:50; Act 17:12.\nCounsellor\nA member of the Sanhedrim, as appears from Luk 23:51.\nWent in boldly (\u03c4\u03bf\u03bb\u03bc\u03ae\u03c3\u03b1\u03c2 \u03b5\u1f30\u03c3\u1fc6\u03bb\u03b8\u03b5\u03bd)\nLit., having dared went in. Daring all possible consequences.\nWondered\nThis query and the asking the centurion are peculiar to Mark.\nBody (\u03c0\u03c4\u1ff6\u03bc\u03b1)\nBetter, Rev., corpse; as the word is used only of a dead body. See on Mat 24:28.\nStone\nSee on Mat 27:60.\nBeheld (\u1f10\u03b8\u03b5\u03ce\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03bd)\nImperfect tense. Were looking on meanwhile. The verb also implies steady and careful contemplation. They took careful note.","title":"Vincent's Word Studies: Mark: Mark Chapter 15","type":"page"}
