From the Commentary on the Whole Bible (Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
Mark Chapter 6
Mr 6:1-6. Christ Rejected at Nazareth. ( = Mt 13:54-58; Lu 4:16-30).
See on Lu 4:16-30.
Mr 6:7-13. Mission of the Twelve Apostles. ( = Mt 10:1, 5-15; Lu 9:1-6).
See on Mt 10:1; Mt 10:5-15.
Mr 6:14-29. Herod Thinks Jesus a Resurrection of the Murdered Baptist—Account of His Death. ( = Mt 14:1-12; Lu 9:7-9).
Herod's View of Christ (Mr 6:14-16).
14. And King Herod—that is, Herod Antipas, one of the three sons of Herod the Great, and own brother of Archelaus (Mt 2:22), who ruled as ethnarch over Galilee and Perea.
heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad); and he said—"unto his servants" (Mt 14:2), his councillors or court ministers.
That John the Baptist was risen from the dead—The murdered prophet haunted his guilty breast like a specter, and seemed to him alive again and clothed with unearthly powers, in the person of Jesus.
15. Others said, That it is Elias. And others, That it is a prophet, or as one
of the prophets—(See on Mt 16:14).
16. But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded; he is
risen from the dead—"Himself has risen"; as if the innocence and sanctity of his
faithful reprover had not suffered that he should lie long dead.
