Marc 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.

Marc 1:30 In-Context

28 Et sa réputation se répandit aussitôt par toute la contrée des environs de la Galilée.
29 Aussitôt après, étant sortis de la synagogue, ils vinrent avec Jacques et Jean dans la maison de Simon et d'André.
30 Or, la belle-mère de Simon était au lit, malade de la fièvre; et aussitôt ils lui parlèrent d'elle.
31 Alors s'approchant, il la fit lever en la prenant par la main; et au même instant la fièvre la quitta, et elle les servit.
32 Sur le soir, quand le soleil fut couché, ils lui amenèrent tous les malades, et les démoniaques.
