Marco 9:20 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 9:20

And they brought him unto him
The father of the child, and those that were with him, brought the child to Jesus, into his presence, before him:

and when he saw him,
that is, either when Jesus saw the child, or the child saw Jesus; or the evil spirit in him, and by him which were all at once:

straightway the spirit tare him;
threw him into a violent fit, shook him, and convulsed him in a dreadful manner; knowing his time was short, and being filled with indignation and rage, that he should be obliged, as he knew he must, to leave the child very speedily; and was therefore resolved to do all the mischief, and put him to all the pain he could:

and he fell on the ground;
at the feet of Jesus, not being able to stand, through the violent motions and convulsions he threw him into:

and wallowed, foaming;
rolled about from side to side, foaming at the mouth, and in the most exquisite rack and torture.

Marco 9:20 In-Context

18 E dovunque esso lo prende, lo atterra; ed allora egli schiuma, e stride de’ denti, e divien secco; or io avea detto a’ tuoi discepoli che lo cacciassero, ma non hanno potuto.
19 Ed egli, rispondendogli, disse: O generazione incredula, infino a quando omai sarò con voi? infino a quando omai vi comporterò? menatemelo.
20 Ed essi glielo menarono; e quando egli l’ebbe veduto, subito lo spirito lo scosse con violenza; e il figliuolo cadde in terra, e si rotolava schiumando.
21 E Gesù domandò il padre di esso: Quanto tempo è che questo gli è avvenuto? Ed egli disse: Dalla sua fanciullezza.
22 E spesse volte l’ha gettato nel fuoco, e nell’acqua, per farlo perire; ma, se tu ci puoi nulla, abbi pietà di noi, ed aiutaci.
