JESUS WORKS
WITH POWER
29And
immediately he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew,
with James and John.
30Now Simon’s
mother-in-law lay ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31And he came
and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she
began to serve them.
32That evening
at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or oppressed by demons. 33And
the whole city was gathered together at the door.
34And he healed
many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons.
And he would not
permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.
MARK 1:29 –
34
COMMENTARY
After the
incident in the Capernaum synagogue, on a Shabbat, Jesus went to the house of
Simon, Peter, and healed his mother-in-Law, since she had been sick for a while
without the use of medicine or effort.
Jesus’s fame had
become known, and that evening, people from all over the town came to Simon’s
house begging for Lord Jesus to heal them or heal their relatives.
Jesus in his
mercy, attended all, and healed them from their diseases, and also delivered them
from demonic possession.
Jesus never
denied Himself to anyone who came to Him in repentance or seeking his healing
power (Jn 6:37), but on the contrary, He demonstrated the veracity of his words
through the evident demonstration of supernatural power (Jn 11:43), which
became the guarantee of God’s approval to his Ministry apart from his own
resurrection.
Jesus
demonstrated through his miracles, that He counted with YHWH’s approval, in a
way nobody had ever done before.
And among those
miracles, He demonstrated through the many resurrections He did, (Lazarus – Jn 11;
the widow’s son – Lk 7; Jairo’s daughter – Mk 5), and his own resurrection,
that He had power even over death itself.
He truly has the
Keys of Death and Hades (Rv 1:18)
