7. John (Protestant academic) “Tyndale House on John 13:14: 13:14-15 Jesus’ acts of service, such as washing feet and dying on the cross, provided an example of personal sacrifice to follow. • wash each other’s feet: Foot washing was so commonplace that Jesus might have intended a literal repetition of his act, or he might have seen it as symbolic. Either way, Jesus wants similar servanthood and sacrifice to characterize his followers.”
8. Mark (Nonconformist/Puritan) “Matthew Henry on Mark 4:1: The foregoing chapter began with Christ's entering into the synagogue (Mar 4:1); this chapter begins with Christ's teaching again by the sea side. Thus he changed his method, that if possible all might be reached and wrought upon. To gratify the nice and more genteel sort of people that had seats, chief seats, in the synagogue, and did not care for hearing a sermon any where else, he did not preach always by the sea side, but, having liberty, went often into the synagogue, and taught there; yet, to gratify the poor, the mob, that could not get room in the synagogue, ”
9. 2 Timothy (Presbyterian) “Jamieson, Fausset & Brown on 2 Timothy 4:2: Preach--literally, "proclaim as a herald." The term for the discourses in the synagogue was daraschoth; the corresponding Greek term (implying dialectial style, dialogue, and discussion, Act 17:2, Act 17:18; Act 18:4, Act 18:19) is applied in Acts to discourses in the Christian Church. JUSTIN MARTYR [Apology, 2], describes the order of public worship, "On Sunday all meet and the writings of the apostles and prophets are read; then the president delivers a discourse; after this all stand up and pray; then there is offered bread and wine and water; the”
10. Matthew (Presbyterian) “Jamieson, Fausset & Brown on Matthew 4:23: And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues--These were houses of local worship. It cannot be proved that they existed before the Babylonish captivity; but as they began to be erected soon after it, probably the idea was suggested by the religious inconveniences to which the captives had been subjected. In our Lord's time, the rule was to have one wherever ten learned men or professed students of the law resided; and they extended to Syria, Asia Minor, Greece, and most places of the dispersion. The larger towns had several, and in J”
11. Mark (Protestant academic) “Tyndale House on Mark 4:1: 4:1-34 In this section Mark collects a number of Jesus’ teaching parables. 4:1 Jesus again uses a boat to avoid the press of the crowd when he is teaching (3:9; Luke 5:2-3).”
12. Matthew (Protestant academic) “Tyndale House on Matthew 9:35: 9:35–11:1 Jesus here extends his ministry (shown in 4:23–9:34) to others within Israel through his disciples (10:5-6). Jesus’ instructions to his disciples (10:5-42) focus on missionary activity and its consequent opposition and hardship. 9:35 This verse connects with the section begun at 4:23. Matthew has presented Jesus to his readers as the Messiah who teaches, preaches, heals, casts out demons, and calls for a decisive response of faith.”
