Marcos 5:37 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 5:37

And he suffered no man to follow him
To the house of the ruler, but dismissed the multitude, being not desirous of the honour and applause of men: probably what he said to the ruler, was privately, and with a low voice, so that the multitude did not hear him; and understanding by the messengers that the child was dead, were the more easily prevailed upon to depart, since they might conclude there was nothing now to be done;

save Peter, and James, and John, the brother of James:
three favourite disciples, who were a sufficient number of witnesses; and who were taken alone along with Christ on some other occasions, as at his transfiguration, and when in the garden.

Marcos 5:37 In-Context

35 Enquanto ele ainda falava, chegaram pessoas da casa do chefe da sinagoga, a quem disseram: A tua filha já morreu; por que ainda incomodas o Mestre?

36 O que percebendo Jesus, disse ao chefe da sinagoga: Não temas, crê somente.

37 E não permitiu que ninguém o acompanhasse, senão Pedro, Tiago, e João, irmão de Tiago.

38 Quando chegaram a casa do chefe da sinagoga, viu Jesus um alvoroço, e os que choravam e faziam grande pranto.

39 E, entrando, disse-lhes: Por que fazeis alvoroço e chorais? a menina não morreu, mas dorme.
