Mark 7:36 - Adam Clarke

Mark 7:36

34 Then, ^alooking up to heaven, ^bHe sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”

35 ^aImmediately his ears were opened, and the¹ impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.

36 Then ^aHe commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it.

37 And they were ^aastonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He ^bmakes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.”

Mark 7:36

Tell no man - See on Matthew 8:4 (note). This miracle is not mentioned by any other of the evangelists. Another proof that Mark did not abridge Matthew. For a practical review of the different important subjects of this chapter, see Matthew 15:1-39 (note), and particularly the observations at the end.
