Context of Mark 3:10
8Many people also came to him from Judea, from Jerusalem and from a region of Israel called Idumea. They also came from places on the other side of the Jordan River, and from the towns called Tyre and Sidon. Many people had heard about the things that Jesus was doing. That is why all these people came to him. 9The crowd was very large. So Jesus asked his disciples to prepare a small boat for him. They did this so that the people would not push against him. Sick people were pushing to the front, because they were trying to touch him. They knew that he had made many people well. 11Often, a person with a bad spirit saw Jesus. Then, the spirit caused the person to fall down on the ground in front of Jesus. The spirit caused that person to shout out, ‘You are the Son of God.’ 12Jesus often had to say to the bad spirits, ‘You must not tell anyone who I am.’

Commentaries on Mark 3:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10They pressed upon him - Rushed upon him, - through eagerness to have their spiritual and bodily maladies immediately removed. Plagues - Rather disorders, Ϛ ; properly such disorders as were inflicted by the Lord. The word plague also tends to mislead.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10As many as had plagues - As many as had diseases or maladies of body or mind. The word plague, now confined to the pestilence, does not express the meaning of the original, and tends to mislead.Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 6-12Verses 6-12 All our sicknesses and calamities spring from the anger of God against our sins. Their removal, or the making them blessings to us, was purchased to us by the blood of Christ. But the plagues and diseases of our souls, of our hearts, are chiefly to be dreaded; and He can heal them also by a word. May more and more press to Christ to be healed of these plagues, and to be delivered from the enemies of their souls.Read the comment
