This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Came down (katēlthen). Mar 1:21 has the historical present, they go into (eisporeuontai). Capernaum (Tell Hum) is now the headquarters of the Galilean ministry, since Nazareth has rejected Jesus. Luk 4:31-37 is parallel with Mar 1:21-28 which he manifestly uses. It is the first of Christ’s miracles which they give.
Was teaching them (ēn didaskōn autous). Periphrastic imperfect. Mark has edidasken first and then en didaskōn. “Them” here means the people present in the synagogue on the sabbath, construction according to sense as in Mar 1:22.
