Context of Mark 1:14

12Immediately, the Holy Spirit sent Jesus out into the wilderness. 13Jesus was in the wilderness for 40 days. During this time, Satan tried to cause him to do wrong things. There were wild animals with Jesus in the wilderness. God's angels took care of him. Later, John was in prison. At that time, Jesus went to Galilee. He told people the good news about God. 15Jesus said, ‘Now is the time when the kingdom of God has come very near. You have done many wrong things. Turn away from them and change the way that you live. Believe God's good news.’ 16One day, Jesus was walking along the shore of Lake Galilee. He saw two brothers called Simon and Andrew. Their job was to catch fish. They were throwing their nets into the lake to catch fish.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 14Now after that John was put in prison - John was imprisoned by Herod, Matthew 14:3. Jesus came into Galilee - He left Judea and went into the more retired country of Galilee. He supposed that if he remained in Judea, Herod would also persecute him and attempt to take his life. His time of death had not come, and he therefore prudently sought safety in retirement. Hence, we may learn that when we have great duties to perform for the church of God, we are…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 14-22Verses 14-22 Jesus began to preach in Galilee, after that John was put in prison. If some be laid aside, others shall be raised up, to carry on the same work. Observe the great truths Christ preached.

Christ has joined these two together, and let no man think to put them asunder. Christ puts honour upon those who…Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 14Jesus began his ministry after John was arrested by Herod Antipas (the ruler of Galilee). There was some overlap between their ministries (John 3:22–24; 4:1–2), but most of the ministry of Jesus happened after John’s. John belongs mainly to the old order (the time before the full ministry of Jesus; Matthew 11:7–14), while Jesus brings the new. Both men carried out God’s plan, and both were arrested and put to death (Mark 6:14–29; 9:31; 10:33). Jesus…Read the comment
