Commentary

Commentary on Mark 9:25

Theological / Devotional

People. Literally, “crowd.” This incident probably occurred during the period of retirement from public ministry, during which Jesus sought to escape publicity and to avoid arousing enthusiasm which He did not purpose to satisfy (see on Matt. 15:21).

Jesus therefore proceeded to effect the cure without further delay.

Rebuked the foul spirit. The demon had caused the boy’s physical condition. The result would disappear along with the cause (see Luke 9:42).
