From the Geneva Notes on Mark 1:12-20
Mr 1:12
(6) Christ being tempted overcomes.
Mr 1:14
(7) After John is taken Christ shows himself more fully.
Mr 1:16
(8) The calling of Simon and Andrew.
Mr 1:19
(9) The calling of James and John.
1:12 {6} And immediately the Spirit {i} driveth him into the
wilderness.
(i) "Driveth" here does not refer to something violent and
forcible: but the divine power clothes Christ (who had
lived until this time as a private man) with a new
person, and prepares him for the battle that was at
hand, and for his ministry.
1:14 {7} Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into
Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
1:16 {8} Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon
and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they
were fishers.
1:19 {9} And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw
James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also
were in the ship mending their nets.
