Mark 6:35 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Mark 6:35

33 But¹ the multitudes saw them departing, and many ^aknew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him.

34 ^aAnd Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like ^bsheep not having a shepherd. So ^cHe began to teach them many things.

35 ^aWhen the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, “This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late.

36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves¹ bread; for they have nothing to eat.”

37 But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said to Him, ^a“Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”

And when the day was now far spent—"began to wear away" or "decline," says Luke (Luke 9:12). Matthew (Matthew 14:15) says, "when it was evening"; and yet he mentions a later evening of the same day (Mark 6:23). This earlier evening began at three P.M.; the latter began at sunset.
