This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mar_9:1. See on Mat_16:28. Comp. Luk_9:27.
εἰσὶ τινὲς ὧδε κ . τ . λ .] see the critical remarks: there are some here among the bystanders.
ἐληλυθ .] having come; otherwise conceived of in Matthew: ἐρχόμενον .
ἐν δυνάμει ] in power; comp. Rom_1:3. When, moreover, in this place the coming of the kingdom is spoken of, it is the same nearness of the Parousia that is meant (comp. on Mat_6:10), as at Mat_16:28 (in opposition to Schwegler, I. p. 467; Baur, Evang. p. 561; Köstlin, p. 383); not the constituting of the church (Bleek), nor the emergence of the idea of the kingdom of God into historical realization (Weisse, Evangelienfr. p. 232), the triumph of the gospel (Schenkel), and the like. See Mar_8:38. With interpretations of this nature the specification of time εἰσὶ τινὲς κ . τ . λ .—pointing as it does to the term of the existing generation—is not at all in keeping.
