Commentary
Commentary on Mark 1:7
Theological / DevotionalPreached. John’s announcement of the Messiah was a characteristic and customary part of his preaching.
Latchet. The “shoes” were in reality sandals that protected only the soles of the feet (see on Matt. 3:11). The “latchet,” or “thong,” held the sandal to the foot.
Stoop down. An expression supplied only by Mark, by way of emphasizing the menial nature of the act. See on Matt. 3:11.
