Context of Mark 1:39

37When they found him, they told him, “Everyone is looking for you.” 38Jesus said to them, “Let’s go somewhere else, to the small towns that are nearby. I have to spread ⌞the Good News⌟ in them also. This is why I have come.” So he went to spread ⌞the Good News⌟ in the synagogues all over Galilee, and he forced demons out of people. 40Then a man with a serious skin disease came to him. The man fell to his knees and begged Jesus, “If you’re willing, you can make me clean.” 41Jesus felt sorry for him, reached out, touched him, and said, “I’m willing. So be clean!”

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).
