Mark 9:29 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 9:29

And he said unto them
Matthew, besides the following reason, assigns another, as given by our Lord, why they could not cast out the foul spirit, which was their unbelief; of which they were guilty in some sort, as well as the Jews, and the father of the child; but Mark omits it, and only relates this as the reason;

this kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting;
which they had not observed; (See Gill on Matthew 17:21).

28 et dixit illis hoc genus in nullo potest exire nisi in oratione et ieiunio

29 et inde profecti praetergrediebantur Galilaeam nec volebat quemquam scire

30 docebat autem discipulos suos et dicebat illis quoniam Filius hominis tradetur in manus hominum et occident eum et occisus tertia die resurget

31 at illi ignorabant verbum et timebant eum interrogare
