Mark 1:30 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 1:30

But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever
"A great fever", Luke says, ( Luke 4:38 ) ; a very violent one, which threatened with death, and must be very dangerous to an old person; (See Gill on Matthew 8:14),

And anon they tell him or her;
for it seems, that not as soon as he came into the house, but some time after, when he had sat awhile, and rested himself after his fatigue in preaching; they acquainted him with her case, and beseeched him to look upon her, and restore her: this was done, either by Simon and Andrew, or by some others of their friends that were in the house; who having either seen, or heard of his dispossessing the unclean spirit, might rightly conclude he had power to remove a fever.

Mark 1:30 In-Context

28 et processit rumor eius statim in omnem regionem Galilaeae
29 et protinus egredientes de synagoga venerunt in domum Simonis et Andreae cum Iacobo et Iohanne
30 decumbebat autem socrus Simonis febricitans et statim dicunt ei de illa
31 et accedens elevavit eam adprehensa manu eius et continuo dimisit eam febris et ministrabat eis
32 vespere autem facto cum occidisset sol adferebant ad eum omnes male habentes et daemonia habentes
