Mark 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.

Mark 1:30 In-Context

28 And the fame of him went forth at once [And the tale, or tiding, of him went forth anon] into all the country of Galilee.
29 And at once they went out of the synagogue, and came into the house of Simon and of Andrew, with James and John. [And anon they going out of the synagogue came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.]
30 And the mother of Simon's wife lay sick in the fevers [lay sick in fevers]; and anon they say to him of her.
31 And he came nigh, and areared her [up], and when he had taken her hand, at once the fever left her, and she served them. [And he coming to, reared her up, the hand of her taken, and anon the fever left her, and she ministered to them.]
32 But when the eventide was come, and the sun was gone down, they brought to him all that were of mal-ease, and them that had fiends. [Forsooth the evening made, when the sun went down, they brought to him all having evil, and having devils.]
