Marcos 12:28 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 12:28

And one of the Scribes came
Matthew calls him a lawyer, ( Matthew 22:35 ) , an interpreter of the law, as a Scribe was:

and having heard them reasoning together;
being present at the dispute between Christ and the Sadducees, which he diligently attended to:

and perceiving that he had answered them well:
in a most beautiful manner. The Jews have adopted the very Greek word here used, and make use of it in the same sense as (Mwlaq hyl rma) F14, "he answered him well": or, as the gloss upon it, "praise worthily"; in a manner deserving praise; and is the same with (trmaq rypv) F15, "thou hast said well", or beautifully; and so the answer here was with great solidity, and judgment, and strength of argument, to their utter confusion and silence; whereby he understood he had considerable knowledge in the law, and yet was willing to try if he could not puzzle him with a question relating to it:

asked him, which is the first commandment of all?
of all the commandments in the law, moral and ceremonial.

Marcos 12:28 In-Context

26 Y en cuanto a que los muertos resucitan, 驴no hab茅is le铆do en el libro de Mois茅s, en el pasaje sobre la zarza ardiendo, c贸mo Dios le habl贸, diciendo: "YO SOY EL DIOS DE ABRAHAM, Y EL DIOS DE ISAAC, Y EL DIOS DE JACOB"?
27 El no es Dios de muertos, sino de vivos; vosotros est谩is muy equivocados.
28 Cuando uno de los escribas se acerc贸, los oy贸 discutir, y reconociendo que les hab铆a contestado bien, le pregunt贸: 驴Cu谩l mandamiento es el m谩s importante de todos?
29 Jes煤s respondi贸: El m谩s importante es: "ESCUCHA, ISRAEL; EL SE脩OR NUESTRO DIOS, EL SE脩OR UNO ES;
30 Y AMARAS AL SE脩OR TU DIOS CON TODO TU CORAZON, Y CON TODA TU ALMA, Y CON TODA TU MENTE, Y CON TODA TU FUERZA."
