*NOTE.--Here again we dissent. So general a statement of "unbelief"would not be used when there was a mere doubt as to some of the"narrated details". We prefer in our original comment to thissubstitution, and it was this: Mark shows us that little dependence canbe placed upon the apparently strong admission which Luke records.Unable to contradict the testimony of Peter, they said, "The Lord isrisen indeed" ( Luke 24:34 ); but their hearts were, nevertheless,full of doubt. Luke himself shows this in the next section, for theseprofessedly believing apostles took Jesus for a spirit when they sawhim. --Philip Y. Pendleton

16:14  And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart1, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen.

(Jerusalem. Sunday evening)

Mark 16:14 ; Luke 24:36-43 ; John 20:19-25

16:15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world1, and preach the gospel to the whole creation2.

16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved1; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.

16:17  And these signs shall accompany them that believe1: in my name shall they cast out demons2; they shall speak with new tongues3;

16:18  they shall take up serpents1, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them2; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

16:19  So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
