Context of Mark 1:39

37When they found him, they said, ‘Everyone is looking for you.’ 38Jesus replied, ‘We should go to other towns near here. Then I can teach the people there too. That is the reason why I came here.’ So Jesus travelled everywhere in Galilee. He taught the people in the Jewish meeting places. He caused bad spirits to come out of people. 40One day, a man who had a disease of the skin came to Jesus. He went down on his knees in front of Jesus. The man said. ‘If you want, you can make me well. Please do it.’ 41Jesus felt very sorry for the man. He put out his hand towards the man and he touched him. ‘I do want to help you,’ Jesus said, ‘Be clean again!’

Those kept from public ordinances by sickness or other real hinderances, may expect the Saviour's gracious presence; he will soothe their sorrows, and abate their pains. Observe how numerous the patients were. When others speed well with Christ, it should quicken us in seeking after him. Christ departed into a…Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 38-39Prayer equipped Jesus to preach, teach, heal, and drive out demons (1:35). The mission of Jesus in Galilee focused on preaching in the synagogues, where he took the opportunity to speak (1:21; Luke 4:16–30). The apostle Paul later took advantage of this same opportunity (Acts 13:5, 14–15; 14:1; 16:13; 17:1).
