4<\/strong>. wounded him in the head<\/em> ] The original word, which generally denotes to comprehend in one sum, or under one head<\/em>, is nowhere else used in this sense. Some MSS. omit the words they cast stones<\/em>, and instead of “ sent him away shamefully handled<\/em>,” read simply, “ used him shamefully<\/em> ” (comp. 2Sa 10:4<\/span>). Thus Jezebel “ slew the prophets of the Lord<\/em> ” (1Ki 18:13<\/span>); Micaiah was thrown into a dungeon by Ahab (1Ki 22:24-27<\/span>); Elijah was threatened with death by Jezebel (1Ki 19:2<\/span>); Elisha by Jehoram (2Ki 6:31<\/span>); Zechariah was stoned at the commandment of Joash (2Ch 24:21<\/span>; comp. 2Ch 36:16<\/span>); Jeremiah was stoned by the exiles in Egypt; Isaiah, according to Jewish tradition, was sawn asunder (Heb 11:37-38<\/span>; 2Ch 36:15-16<\/span>).<\/p>\n Verse 4<\/span>. At him they cast stones and wounded<\/B><\/I> him <\/B>in the head<\/B><\/I>] Or rather, as most learned men agree, they made short work of it<\/I>, . We have followed the Vulgate, illum in capite<\/I> vulneraverunt<\/I>, in translating the original, wounded<\/I> him in the<\/I> head<\/I>, in which signification, I believe, the word is found in no Greek writer. signifies to sum up, to comprise<\/I>, and is used in this sense by St. Paul, Ro 13:9<\/span>. From the parable we learn that these people were determined to hear no<\/I> reason, to do no<\/I> justice, and to keep the possession<\/I> and the produce<\/I> by violence; therefore they fulfilled their purpose in the fullest<\/I> and speediest<\/I> manner, which seems to be what the evangelist intended to express by the word in question. Mr. Wakefield translates, They speedily sent him away<\/I>; others think the meaning is, They shaved their heads<\/I> and made them look ridiculously; this is much to the same purpose, but I prefer, They made short work of<\/I> it<\/I>. Dr. Lightfoot, De Dieu, and others, agree in the sense given above; and this will appear the more probable, if the word , they cast stones<\/I>, be omitted, as it is by BDL, the Coptic, Vulgate<\/I>, and all the Itala<\/I>.<\/P><\/p>\n And again he sent unto them another servant<\/strong>,…. Another set of good men, to instruct, advise, and counsel them, and exhort them to their duty; such as were Isaiah, Zechariah, and others:<\/p>\n and at him they cast stones, and wounded [him] in the head<\/strong>; for of these were stoned, as well as sawn asunder, and slain with the sword; though it seems, that this servant, or this set of men, were not stoned to death, because he was afterwards said to be sent away: nor could the stoning be what was done by the order of the sanhedrim, which was done by letting an heavy stone fail upon the heart k; but this was done by all the people, by the outrageous zealots, in the manner Stephen was stoned. Dr. Lightfoot thinks, the usual sense of the Greek word may be retained; which signifies “to reduce”, or “gather into a certain sum”: and so as this servant was sent to reckon with these husbandmen, and take an account from them of the fruit of the vineyard, one cast a stone at him, saying, there is fruit for you; and a second cast another stone, saying the same thing; and so they went on one after another, till at last they said, in a deriding way, now the sum is made up with you:<\/p>\n and sent [him] away shamefully handled<\/strong>; with great ignominy and reproach.<\/p>\n k Misn.

Behold this fruit” (casting a stone at him) “behold another fruit,” (casting another stone) and so many times together: and so they sent him away derided, and loaded with disgrace.<\/p>\n II. But be it that the word is to be translated as it is commonly rendered, “they wounded him in the head”: then this way of stoning is thus distinguished from that whereby they were slain who were stoned by the Sanhedrim. That was called stone-casting; for it was the cast of a stone, indeed, but of one only, and that a very great one; and that upon the heart of the condemned person, when now he lay along upon his back. But this stoning was of many stones, thrown out of the hand through the air, striking him here and there and everywhere. The head of him that was stoned by the Sanhedrim was unhurt, and without any wound; but here, They cast stones at him, and wounded him in the head.<\/p>\n And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away shamefully handled. 4. wounded him in the head ] The original word, which generally denotes to comprehend in one sum, or under one head, is nowhere else used in this sense. … Continue reading “Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Mark 12:4”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24664","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-commentary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24664","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24664"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24664\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24664"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24664"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24664"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Fuente: The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n
