Vincent, [1886]\nAt the rising of the sun (\u1f00\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03b5\u03af\u03bb\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2 \u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6 \u1f21\u03bb\u03af\u03bf\u03c5)\nMore correctly, as Rev., when the sun was risen.\nPeculiar to Mark.\nAffrighted\nSee Mar 9:15, and Introduction. Rev., better, amazed. It was wonder rather than fright.\nQuickly\nOmitted by best texts.\nAstonishment (\u1f14\u03ba\u03c3\u03c4\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03c2)\nSee on Mar 5:42.\nAfraid (\u1f10\u03c6\u03bf\u03b2\u03bf\u1fe6\u03bd\u03c4\u03bf)\nThe wonder merges into fear.\nBy a large number of the ablest modern critics the remainder of this chapter is held to be from some other hand than Mark's. It is omitted from the two oldest manuscripts.\nThe first day of the week (\u03c0\u03c1\u03ce\u03c4\u1fc3 \u03c3\u03b1\u03b2\u03b2\u03ac\u03c4\u03bf\u03c5)\nA phrase which Mark does not use. In Mar 16:2 of this chapter it is \u03bc\u03b9\u1fb6\u03c2 \u03c3\u03b1\u03b2\u03b2\u03ac\u03c4\u03c9\u03bd\nOut of whom he had cast seven devils\nWith Mark's well-known habit of particularizing, it is somewhat singular that this circumstance was not mentioned in either of the three previous allusions to Mary (Mar 15:40, Mar 15:47; Mar 16:1).\nOut of whom (\u1f00\u03c6' \u1f27\u03c2)\nAn unusual expression. Mark habitually uses the preposition \u1f10\u03ba in this connection (Mar 1:25, Mar 1:26; Mar 5:8; Mar 7:26, Mar 7:29; Mar 9:25). Moreover, \u1f00\u03c0\u1f78, from, is used with \u1f10\u03ba\u03b2\u03ac\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03b9\u03bd, cast out, nowhere else in the New Testament. The peculiarity is equally marked if we read with some, \u03c0\u03b1\u1fe4 \u1f27\u03c2.\nShe (\u1f10\u03ba\u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b7)\nAn absolute use of the pronoun unexampled in Mark. See also Mar 16:11, Mar 16:13. It would imply an emphasis which is not intended. Compare Mar 4:11; Mar 12:4, Mar 12:5, Mar 12:7; Mar 14:21.\nWent (\u03c0\u03bf\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03b8\u03b5\u1fd6\u03c3\u03b1)\nSo in Mar 16:12, Mar 16:15. Went, go. This verb for to go occurs nowhere else in this Gospel except in compounds.\nThem that had been with him (\u03c4\u03bf\u1fd6\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5\u03c4' \u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6 \u03b3\u03b5\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf\u03b9\u03c2)\nA circumlocution foreign to the Gospels.\nAfter these things (\u03bc\u03b5\u03c4\u03ac \u03c4\u03b1\u1fe6\u03c4\u03b1)\nAn expression never used by Mark.\nAnother form (\u1f11\u03c4\u03ad\u03c1\u1fb3 \u03bc\u03bf\u03c1\u03c6\u1fc7)\nMore correctly, a different form.\nAfterward (\u1f55\u03c3\u03c4\u03b5\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd)\nNot found elsewhere in Mark. Often in Matthew.\nTo every creature (\u03c4\u03ac\u03c3\u1fc3 \u03c4\u1fc7 \u03ba\u03c4\u03af\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9)\nRightly, as Rev., to the whole creation.\nShall be damned (\u03ba\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1\u03ba\u03c1\u03b9\u03b8\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9)\nA most unfortunate rendering. The word is a judicial term, and, as Dr. Morison truthfully says, \"determines, by itself, nothing at all concerning the nature, degree, or extent of the penalty to be endured.\" See on the kindred noun, \u03ba\u03c1\u1fd6\u03bc\u03b1, judgment, rendered by A. V. damnation, Co1 11:29. Rev., rightly, condemned.\nShall follow (\u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03c5\u03b8\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9)\nThe preposition \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03ac, alongside of, gives the sense of accompany.\nThe sick (\u1f00\u03c1\u03c1\u03ce\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2)\nSee on Mar 6:5.\nFollowing (\u1f10\u03c0\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03c5\u03b8\u03bf\u03cd\u03bd\u03c4\u03c9\u03bd)\nFollowing closely: force of \u1f10\u03c0\u03af. Both this and the word for follow, in Mar 16:17, are foreign to Mark's diction, though he frequently uses the simple verb.\nA manuscript of the eighth or ninth century, known as L, has, at the close of Mar 16:8, these words: \"In some instances there is added as follows.\" Then we read: \"But all the things enjoined they announced without delay to those who were around Peter (i.e., to Peter and those who were with him). And afterward Jesus himself, from the east unto the west, sent forth through them the sacred and incorruptible message of eternal salvation.\"\nThe subject of the last twelve verses of this Gospel may be found critically discussed in the second volume of Westcott and Hort's Greek Testament; by Dean John W. Burgon in his monograph, \"The Last Twelve Verses of the Gospel according to St. Mark Vindicated against Recent Objectors and Established;\" Frederick Henry Scrivener, LL.D., \"Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament;\" James Morison, D.D., \"Practical Commentary on the Gospel according to St. Mark;\" Samuel Davidson, D.D., \"Introduction to the Study of the New Testament;\" Philip Schaff, D.D., \"History of the Christian Church;\" Canon F. C. Cook in \"Speaker's Commentary on Mark ;\" Samuel P. Tregelles, LL.D., \"On the Printed Text of the Greek Testament;\" also in the commentaries of Alford and Meyer.","title":"Vincent's Word Studies: Mark: Mark Chapter 16","type":"page"}
