Context — The Second Prediction of the Passion

28After Jesus had gone into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” 29Jesus answered, “This kind cannot come out, except by prayer.”

30Going on from there, they passed through Galilee. But Jesus did not want anyone to know,

31because He was teaching His disciples. He told them, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill Him, and after three days He will rise.” 32But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.

Mark 9:30 Summary

[In this verse, Jesus is passing through Galilee with His disciples, but He doesn't want anyone to know He's there, because He wants to focus on teaching them about His upcoming death and resurrection, as seen in Mark 9:31. This shows that Jesus is humble and intentional, and that He is willing to avoid public attention in order to fulfill His mission, as mentioned in Matthew 20:28. Jesus' example teaches us the importance of balancing our public ministry with private instruction and spiritual growth, as seen in Luke 10:38-42. By following Jesus' example, we can learn to prioritize our spiritual growth and focus on our mission, as mentioned in 1 Corinthians 9:24-27.]

Gill's Exposition on Mark 9:30

And they departed thence,.... From the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, from that part of the country where the mountain was, on which Christ was transfigured, and at the foot of which the above miracle was wrought.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Mark 9:30

And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Mark 9:30

Ver. 30-32. Our Saviour, as the time of his suffering approached more nearly, did more frequently inculcate it to his disciples, that being forewarned, they might also be forearmed against the temptation of it; and we learn from , that all was too little, for when they saw these things come to pass they began to flag as to their faith: they said, But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel. Our Saviour said unto them, The Son of man is delivered; which is expounded by ,23, The Son of man shall be betrayed. He was already delivered in the sure counsel of God, and what God hath revealed shall be done, because of the certainty of the effect, is often in Scripture spoken of as a thing already done. That phrase, , the third day, th trith hmera, expounds that other phrase which we meet with, . meta treiv hmerav, which we translate after three days, and makes the meaning of the evangelists plain to have been as we determined it.

Trapp's Commentary on Mark 9:30

30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it. Ver. 30. And they departed thence] Clam et celeriter, privily and hastily, as the Greek παρεπορευαντο imports; and why they did so, see Luke 9:53.

Ellicott's Commentary on Mark 9:30

(30-32) And they departed thence.—See Notes on Matthew 17:22-23. He would not that any man should know it.—We note St. Mark’s addition, as showing that the apparent shrinking from publicity which had marked our Lord’s action since the feeding of the Four Thousand still continued.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Mark 9:30

Verse 30. They - passed through Galilee] See on Matthew 17:22-27.

Cambridge Bible on Mark 9:30

30–32. Predictions of the Passion 30. And they departed thence] From the northern regions, into which our Lord had penetrated, He now turned His steps once more towards Galilee, probably taking the route by Dan across the slopes of Lebanon, thus escaping the publicity of the ordinary high roads, and securing secrecy and seclusion. “It was the last time He was to visit the scene of so great a part of His public life, and He felt, as He journeyed on, that He would no more pass from village to village as openly as in days gone by, for the eyes of His enemies were everywhere upon Him.” and passed] The word thus translated occurs five times in the N. T. It is applied to the disciples passing through the cornfields (Mark 2:23); to their passing by along the road from Bethany and noticing the withered fig-tree (Mark 11:20); to those that passed by and reviled our Lord upon the Cross (Matthew 27:39; Mark 15:19). Here it seems to denote that, avoiding populous places, He and His Apostles sought bye-paths among the hills, where He would meet few and be little known.

Barnes' Notes on Mark 9:30

See the notes at Matthew 17:22-23. Mark 9:31 Is delivered - Is given to men to make an atonement by his sufferings and death, and will in due time be taken and killed.
